Given that this was a procedural issue, that all senators were cut off at the ten minute mark (for example, John Cornyn, earlier that same day), since Lieberman didn't think it was anything personal, what the hell are you talking about? Why are you babbling nonsense about this being some "rude" action of a freshman senator, when this is a simple matter of all senators being held to a simple timeline?
You even brought up Cornyn yourself - and, incidentally, there were people waiting behind Lieberman to speak. But even if Grampa McCain missed that exchange, since he had done the same thing himself, isn't that a little hypocritical on his part?
What's the deal here? Is it too good a story not to lie about?
I apologize for one thing, though. You didn't mention Cornyn - you should have, of course. I should probably have watched the video before posting.
Since you weren't using the video clip I thought, you didn't show the practically identical exchange from earlier that same day, when another Senator went over his time. You know, something McCain had never seen in his 120 years in the Senate...
