Is it time to make the Republicans stand & REALLY filibuster, with urine bags in place, until 2014?



... Make them read into he Congressional record every phone book in the universe?

Time to cram their filibuster down their lying throats & force them to expose their naked, treasonous tactics until the voters throw them all the way to the Caymans in 2 years?

Time to keep the Senate in session 24/7/365 for a 2 year filibuster?

They can PREVENT closure of debate. We can force them to ACTUALLY stand up and actually debate. Faryn Balyncd Feb 2013 #5

"Our" side punted when they had the chance to do something about it. Why? Because they don't want to do right by the People. They serve their corporate masters, not us.

I've heard both arguments and all I do know is that we, The People, are so screwed. So what else is new? But I do agree with you Faryn, make 'em work for their so-called convictions.
