Why Does David Vitter Hate Families Together At Christmas?
Apparently, David Vitter doesn't think the Senate should be able to go home at a reasonable hour to spend Christmas Eve with their families, and Tom Harkin wants everyone to know just whose stocking deserves a lump of coal.
SEN. HARKIN (D-Iowa): So Mr. President, I know one senator whose family is with their in-laws - their husband's from England and their kids are over there - can't make it for Christmas dinner tomorrow night. I know other person who has to get out to the west because - and there's a lot of storms out there - if they can get that early flight, they can make two legs and get home. If they have to go later in the day, they have to do three legs and they may not make it. There's a lot of people around here that are having a lot of problems with that. We're all here. There's no -- really no reason to hold over the vote. So I'm going to ask unanimous consent that the vote on the passage of the bill and the -- and the vote on the debt limit bill -- occur at 6pm this evening.
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: Is there objection?
SEN. VITTER (R-Lousiana): Mr. President?
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: Senator Vitter.
SEN. VITTER (R-Lousiana): That request has not been cleared on this side, so on behalf of my colleagues, I will object. And if the senator would like to talk to all of his colleagues about it, that would be fine. But in the meantime, I would object.
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: Objection is heard.
SEN. HARKIN (D-Iowa): Mr. President, then I would further ask unanimous consent that the votes that are going to occur at 7am tomorrow occur at 12:15am in the morning.
SEN. VITTER (R-Lousiana): Mr. President?
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: Is there objection?
SEN. VITTER (R-Lousiana): Mr. President, my response would be the same and I would object in the same vein.
PRESIDENT OF THE SENATE: Objection is heard.
SEN. HARKIN (D-Iowa): Well I just want people to know who's keeping us here.
Gotta love those "Family Values" types, doncha? David Vitter, true to Republican obstructionism form, if not his wife.
They might be minorly inconvenienced on Christmas. Cry me a fucking river....
Corruption favors the wealthy.
3 days a week now?
They should bring his hookers in to sit in the Gallery. Have them sit in a very prominent place. That will speed his ass up a bit. Set a box of adult depends up on the railing. Have them blow him kisses and wave to him. He'll bust his ass to get the fuck out of there. I really hate that hypocrite.
don't let him miss New Year's Eve!!!
I heard his favorite Madam bought him a new JUMBO DIAPER and he's going to be dressed as the New Year Baby. He can hardly wait to have the diaper pulled down and be spanked and cry in the New Year.
WHAT AN ASSHOLE!!!
I wouldn't want him around.
and fairly unpopular, the Rethugs would use Xmas to rush legislation through also, as the Dems are doing now. Personally, I don't give a damn if they all miss Xmas, New Year's, Valentine's, St Patty's, and Easter....as none of those days are relevant to governing. But this gutted bill has been gutted enough, so just vote, and the Rethugs can be damned and can go home crying.
the Senate should be able to go home at a reasonable hour to spend Christmas Eve with their families either. I'd actually prefer they all be transferred directly to prison at this point.
Sounds like a plan, Evet!
May as well get our money's worth.

A permanent vacation in "a tropical paradise" for all of them.
I like it!
I am grateful you "get" my sense of humor. I mean, I'm supposed to forgive them for they know not what they do right? The problem is that's getting more difficult as this movie unfolds and it's becoming clearly obvious everything these guys touch turns into a freaking disaster.
a +1, is it?
Evet, I enjoy your posts. You kinda remind me of 'tyree', whose comments were always honest and refreshing. I really like your sense of humour and great musical taste.
Have a wonderful Christmas and New Year!
I'm not interested.
they're missing Christmas celebrations, and Vitter's just giving them more stuff to whine about and blame the Dems for. And Rachel Maddow quoted one Repug senator who said they'd drag this out till Valentine's Day if they could.
Frankly, I don't care if any of them miss Christmas.
I've never seen change without a fire
Diaper Dave Vitter must have a local hoo-er now.

Dear SEN. HARKIN (D-Iowa),
That would be a diaper filled with lumps of coal.

Starve the WAR Beast...
... Feed Americans.
Every American should pack up a 20 lb box of coal and ship it to the U.S. CONgress.
Merry Christmas!
If the U.S. Government wants to inflict pain on Americans why not return the favor?
Not even a break for diaper change?
is this where we are supposed to have a partisan pile-on, and excoriate the mean ole GOP for inconveniencing the US congress and the poor, poor democrats?
phhpppt
... he just hates our troops.
Corruption favors the wealthy.
We're discussing the actions/words of a U.S. Senator who preaches family values, etc and likes to go to hookers and dress up in diapers.
What kind of country have we become electing mental cases like this to represent us?.....and he's not the only nutcase in Congress.
An asylum for the sane would be empty in America. George Bernard Shaw
Vitter has all the family he needs, wants and can probably handle right there close to his "C" street bedroom... If they won't come to him, he'll go to them - take about 45-60 minutes...
Oh, you mean Louisiana ?? Naa....he does that stint about three times a year... no worries... rather have Helga take care of him....
He's doing this because he feels threatened.
If others get more freedom, then he percieves this as him getting less freedom.
Since his life is entirely about his life he is compelled to object.
It's part of the "All for me and screw the rest" philosophy, as prescribed in "The New Republican
BibleBook of Vices".We can all see what a disaster that philosophy is for the nation.

It really is a wonder the senate gets anything done.
Sure sounds more like schoolyard bullies than adults.
But, we can replace every one of them (it would take 18 years)
Talk about scrood!
"I know that there are people who do not love their fellow

It would only take 4 years...
Senatorial elections take place in 2010, 2012, 2014.

Senators serve 6 year terms - and 1/3 of the senate is up for election at any one time.
You have to show the the math to replace them all in 4.

man, and I hate people like that! " ~ Tom Lehrer (1928 - )
Is it not 4 years from November 2010 to November 2014?
"Trust no one, Mr. Mulder." - Well-Manicured Man
In 2010, you replace the 2004 lot;
In 2012, you replace the 2006 lot;
In 2014, you replace the 2008 lot. (Except Al Franken, who stays.)
Et voilà. You've replaced the entire senate in 3 elections, over 4 years.

Replace whoever you want, leave my Senator alone, Sen. Al Franken.
I wanted to say "Amy stays," too, but didn't want to press my luck.

dump them all out? Except for Grayson, Kucinich and Franken.
NOBODY 2012
f- 'em.
was a mean old soul he should have ended that statement with 'The disgraced Senator from Louisiana'
Or "the Diaper-wearing Spank-baby Senator from Louisiana"
I can think of no bigger lump of coal for this band of the most deserving nasty bastards--their own bad company.
me-oww!
...with prostitutes while sounding off for "family values". The guy is an absolute disgrace...but he does represent some real ass-backwards contituents if they are going to send this nutball to Congress on their behalf.
The dumb ass should be wearing a paper bag over his head in public...and be forced to wear a "depends" on the outside of his suit.
please leave these people alone.
they work hard making sure they put it to americans.
they dont deserve this.
these are the best people in america.
they cannot be bribed and bought.
they have our best interest at heart.
no lobbyists controls these people. no sir
making them work over the holidays for health insurance why they have the best money can buy why should they work like this.
we are an immoral society based on survival of the fittest mentality for one reason. $$$$$$$$
the christian devil itself could not have come up with a more corrupt economic ideology than capitalism.
no keep thinking their is only capitalism or socialism in my youth it was capitalism or communism.
we killed one million vietnamese 80% women and children in our quest for world wide capitalism.$$$$$$$$$$$$$
we will kill and did kill millions for the benefit of the capitalists. $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
americans you are being had by the have mores and they dont love you for it. they think of you as warm bodies for profits. thats all.
in fact they are determined to make sure you someday will work for third world wages. ie cnn latest article.
both demos and repubs alike are in on this. dont be fooled. the demos are the biggest liars. at least the repubs know and admit who they bow down to. ie corp america.
the demos will pass a bill that will benefit the have mores. been saying this all along. the enemy is the capitalists. roosevelt knew this few know what roosevelt knew.
wake up the journalists and media are not going to tell you these things they have to bow down to corp american for ad money. it is a scam.
has a date in DC with a prostitute this evening who has promised to diaper him and let him play in his own feces.
Work in DC could be way of avoiding his wife.
Doesn't he have a diaper to fill?
Diabolus est Deus Inversus
This bill sucks. Our senators suck. I have no sympathy for them. If Republitards want to hose the vaca of all senators, great. At least they've done something I can finally agree with.
I know people who hasn't seen a single Christmas, New Years eve and thanksgiving with their families in the past 8 years because they have to work. And I'm talking work outside on the weather. Who gives a shit about politicians sacrificing one single Christmas when they are at fault of most troubles we are facing?
There are plenty of prostitutes in D.C. A few he's never been with.
