After a glorious day yesterday of the Senate coming to a standstill while we heard a marathon amendment recital, all because the Democrats refuse to honor their word and move Bush judicial appointments to the Appellate courts, the Senators provided their own late night antics to take stock on the day's events.

When the dramatic reading of Barbara Boxer's 491-page amendment to the climate control boondoggle finally finished late into the evening, to the snapping of fingers all over the Senate floor, the majority and minority leaders reflected on what happened Wednesday and why.  Here's a little bit of the highlights, or what happens when Senate Reid stays up past his bedtime.

For those of you who don't speak fluent politician, let me translate for you.

Sen. Sessions: Didn't we have a deal to move 15 circuit court judges?

Sen. Reid: Hummina hummina hummina, blah blah blah.

Sen. Sessions:  Thank you for your articulate response, but you didn't answer my question.  Didn't we have a deal to move 15 circuit court judges?

Sen. Reid: You hurt my feelers.  You said I was clueless.  Don't deny it, I saw you. You called me clueless. That's an insult, and I'm sure that's against the rules.  At least I think it is.  Are you sorry you called me clueless?

Sen. Sessions: If I broke a rule, I'm sorry. But if the question mark fits, find someone to explain what it means to you. 

I know it's late, but hopefully someone will tell Senator Reid not to take it too personal, that one man's insult is another man's definition.  And start moving the judges.
