Signs Of A Pulse

"Violating rules of courtesy and consent," huh? How about arbitrarily extending the amount of time to vote on legislation twice beyond the limit previously agreed upon by both sides after the offended party (the Repugs) asked for the first extension to begin with? How about the Vice President of the United States dropping an "F" bomb on the chamber floor?

I'm sure Molly Ivins or Joe Conason will have something good on this soon. I don't know much about Pat Roberts or if he's guilty of blowing off the Dems on this, though the fact that he's from Kansas doesn't win him points in my book. I'm sure there's political posturing on both sides, so the Repugs should understand that the Dems are playing by their rules for a change.

Update: John A. at AmericaBlog got the lowdown yesterday.
