Something tells me it is not usual for someone to be interrupted like that. This will come back to bite Franken.

Ol Johnny's got a little starch in his shorts that morning!

A pity the good Senator from Arizona couldn't muster up the same righteous anger when it was President Obama being shouted down in a partisan display of anger by one of Senator McCain's fellow Righties.

Actually, it's come back to bite McCain:

On October 10, 2002 — just ahead of the looming mid-term elections — the Senate rushed a debate on a war authorization giving President Bush the power to use force against Iraq. The resolution ultimately passed the Senate after midnight on an early Friday morning by a vote of 77-23.

During the course of the frenzied floor debate, then-Sen. Mark Dayton (D-MN) spoke in favor of an amendment offered by Sen. Robert Byrd (D-WV) that would have restricted Bush’s constitutional powers to wage war against Iraq. After a minute and a half, Dayton ran out of time, prompting this exchange:

The PRESIDING OFFICER. The Senator’s time has expired.

Mr. DAYTON. I ask for unanimous consent that I have 30 seconds more to finish my remarks.

Mr. McCAIN. I object.

Byrd stepped in to grant Dayton time to finish his remarks. But just moments later, Byrd asked for more time to speak for himself. Again, McCain objected, prompting Byrd to chide him for doing so. “This shows the patience of a Senator,” Byrd said. “This clearly demonstrates that the train is coming down on us like a Mack truck, and we are not even going to consider a few extra minutes for this Senator.”

After being publicly shamed, McCain acquiesced to Byrd’s request. But moments later, McCain added this disclaimer: “I wish to say very briefly that I understand people have a desire to speak. We have a number of Senators who have not spoken on this issue. It is already looking as if we may be here well into this evening. From now on, I will be adhering strictly to the rules.” In other words, he acted just like Franken did yesterday.

Fuck Joe Lieberman, whose only loyalty is to himself.
Fuck McCain, who sold his soul to the neocon cabal and has been a two faced blow hard every since.

Kudos to Franken for exercising his right under the rules, and for not backing down.

TFB, neocons....if you can't stand the rules, quit the Congress.

Let's see our resident neocon parrots try to spin that!

Franken was very polite in denying that asses request.

I think its hilarious that we have a Senate that is run by Byrd.
