CANCEL YOUR DISCO DANCING PLANS! Whoa it’s a Drudge Siren, who died and what was the hooker’s name? No, damnit, this is a health care update! Harry Reid has filed a motion to proceed with debate on his Senate health care bill, and a cloture vote is scheduled for 8 p.m. this Saturday. This will be the first of two procedural votes requiring 60 votes before a vote on the final bill. Joe Lieberman has said he’ll vote for this one, but three other self-centered liars from “Real America” are still thought to be Wavering. They should come around. If not, your Wonkette will type unusually mean things about them, every day, until they’re voted out of office. [TPM]

HOLY SHIT WE NEED MORE DRUDGE SIRENS FOR THIS ONE.
Nothing gets the blood pumping like statements such as, “This will be the first of two procedural votes requiring 60 votes before a vote on the final bill.” I’m hard just thinking about it.
Unleashing the nuclear threat a bit early, eh Wonkette?
Siince this is on a Saturday/Sabbot/Sabbath/Sabado can Joe actually vote? can Sen. Byrd stay up that late? Will Coburn demand the entire bill be read (as he’s threatened)? Will Beck/Paliln/O’Reilly have a deathblog of the entire event?
And one of Drudge’s ledes:
Sen. Reid’s Government-Run Health Plan Requires a Monthly Abortion Fee
Posted by GOP Leader Press Office on November 19th, 2009
[re=463060]Humpback[/re]: No. The nuclear threat is to fling poop at their houses. Oh shit, I gave it away…
I’m too sexy for your party
Too sexy for your party
No *way* I’m disco dancing!
[re=463068]Jim Newell[/re]: I am not sure that would work. I think it might just turn them on.
…If not, your Wonkette will type unusually mean things about them…
be still my heart.
[re=463066]chascates[/re]: As long as it’s lower than my current monthly abortion fee I’m okay with it.
I thought Harry was a balless spineless weenie? What is THIS Harry Reid?
The puddle of piss is about to get a little bit wetter and a little bit warmer, I see.
[re=463074]qwerty42[/re]: And I will take those mean things to heart and think them over and over so the psychic backlash will bring about their ultimate humiliation.
Silly Jim. How I do love you. You know you’ll poke fun and nastiness at them even when they’re out of office. Not that I have any reservations about that. Full steam ahead!
Rockin, a CSPAN Saturday Night!
Is it cynical of me to think Harry Reid couldn’t herd gay men into a Pottery Barn? I’ll believe it when the gavel comes down on the 60th vote.
[re=463058]Vulpes82[/re]: This is the way the world ends, not with a bang but with a procedural vote on whether or not to vote.
[re=463068]Jim Newell[/re]: Not poop, Jim. Used condoms. Stop looking forward to the bear-raping and get it together.
[re=463058]Vulpes82[/re]: See, this is what always happens when I try to pass along information. “They hafta vote lotsa times before the law thing becomes real,” would have been more exciting.
[re=463119]Hooray For Anything[/re]:
What happens to a bill deferred?
Does it dry up
like a raisin in the senate?
I say avoid the rush. Type mean things now.
The Republicans are freaking over health care so much, you’d think it was like a matter of life and death or something.
[re=463061]chascates[/re]: Shabbot should be over by then, as it’ll be post-sunset in D.C. by then. Bummer. I wonder if they could move it back to say 4:00?
We got nothing better to do
Than blog healthcare and have a couple of brews
[re=463061]chascates[/re]: Sabbath is over at sundown on Saturday, which is earlier than 8 in the winter. This has been a wonkette public service announcement…carry on.
[re=463076]ManchuCandidate[/re]:
Amazing what a little peyote-induced revelation can do.
guess the procession of candles by Joe Liebermans house may have given him a shock?
A candle could ignite anarchy any time.
[re=463125]Jim Newell[/re]: Oh, Jim, it’s not your writing that’s not exciting (IT’S ZEXY!), it’s the fact that we’ve been reduced to having this be news at all, let alone sire-worthy.
[re=463138]gurukalehuru[/re]: “The Republicans are freaking over health care so much, you’d think it was like a matter of
life and deathmoney or something.”[/fixed]

[re=463125]Jim Newell[/re]: Hahahahahaha. ‘Scuse us Jim, justaminute.
I’ll have a word with all you whiny, pussy Wonkett commenters now: You call yourself warbloggers? You’re all worthless and weak! Why do we rest a single minute, a single second, while Jim Newell remains, shamefully, UNELECTED to the US Senate? You can see he knows all the ins and outs, this whole “having to vote several times on one issue” concept, all this stupid ‘debate’ shit that so depresses the lesser, weaker warrior (lookin’ at you, McCaskill). Can’t you see he was BORN for this? Pick a state, any state, (Not mine. Shit! are you crazy?). Pick one with vulnerable Republican or blue-dog Dem Senator and let’s not rest a moment until Jim Newell is the freshman senator for (insert state name).
Pretty soon he won’t even remember how to spell the word ‘fucksack’ or even recognize the word ‘TruckNutz’. Bwahahahaha.
[re=463089]Texan Bulldoggette[/re]: Well played, Tex. But, is it cynical of me to think that Michael Jackson couldn’t even convince Trig Palin to sleep in his bed with him? Yes; yes it would be. What? Too soon? Too far?
Hey, we all know you’ll be saying mean things long after they leave office.
