You are behind the curve on this. No one has ever suggested ending the filibuster for all purposes, including legislation. Senator Frist has made this point so clearly and so often that even the MSM has reported in the last few days that nothing he is proposing would end the filibuster for anything except judicial nominees.

I realize that, and agree with the idea.
I was commenting on the statement by 'Mike10542' that he hated all filibusters.

I hate filbusters, but just because I hate them doesn't mean I would get rid of them. I would always keep them on legislation because I know we need it sometimes. They are annoying though when they are used against us.
