It would give me great comfort and pleasure to learn that by the end of today you are no longer among the living and that you died without health care.
Have you seen this clip of Franken, presiding over the Senate, strictly held Lieberman to his ten minutes?
Earlier AK Senator Begich,, when presiding, likewise held Sen. Cornyn, R-Texas to the same strict limit. Both had been instructed by the leadership to strictly enforce the 10 minute rule, so it's not as though Franken was dissing Lieberman. None-the-less, the clip is worth a watch, especially the part of McCain making an ass out of himself spewing his indignation at Franken's action.

Senator Lieberman, your ten minutes is up. Get lost.

Yesterday's episode of the Rachel Maddow Show exhibited a recording of Sen. McCain doing the very same thing to a Democrat. Can't remember which one or when. What a lying sack of crap.
