"So
why did this all-night session happen? Because while Democrats have a majority
in the Senate, they don't have the 60-vote supermajority needed to bring bills
like this to a vote, thus forcing the Democrats to stay up all night to prevent
the Republicans from staging an all-night, vote-blocking filibuster. You can
see why we're fighting so hard to export this type of government to Iraq."
--Jon Stewart
"If
by stunt they mean an incredible display of valor, then yes, last night was an
awesome stunt. Last night, the brave men and women -- well, mosty men -- of the
110th stood up and said, 'We are mad as hell, and we are not going to sleep as
much as we would normally sleep tonight.'" --Daily Show correspodnent Aasif Mandvi, on the Senate's
all-nighter being dismissed as a stunt
