[QUOTE="wkmac, post: 656488, member: 2189"] Amazing how the interchangibility between the 2 work and flow so well! As to McCain's remarks, whether you love him or hate him, Sen. Robert Byrd is a widely accepted historian and authority on Senate protocol and history and I'd like to hear what he has to say about all of this. Tactics of delay and fillibuster has always been typical life in the Senate as it is a far more delibrative body than the house and none more infamous than Sen. Byrd himself and the infamous story of his dog Billy. I do believe [B][U]had[/U][/B] Franken truly overstepped his authority, he'd have been called out immediately for it but the fact that a common courtesy was not extended in this case IMO doesn't mean much IMO. McCain could have given Lieberman some of his time to finish his remarks (allowed by the rules) and yet he did not so consider that point as well. But it gives chackling hens and the political party rubes something to spend time worrying about. More wine and circus anyone! [/QUOTE]
