The Dims have walked up on the scaffold and put the noose around their own necks.

I am so sick and tired of the Dims and their obstructionist tactics

You keep talking about the Dims and the crap they pull.

Well what about the weak kneed Republicans who let them get away with the crap.

I tried of the Republicans just standing by and letting the Dims play their filibuster that isn’t games.

Republicans need to make the Dims put up or shut up with this filibuster.

Make Schumer stand on the Senate floor and talk non-stop four 24/7 if he is so serious about Justice Brown Being so unqualified and a terrible right winger.

The Republicans have been the majority party long enough to start acting like it.

I fully agree. Make Chuckie pay for his face time!

The problem there is, again, the rules. For the GOP to fight the filibuster and "make Schumer go 24/7" is that they HAVE to keep all 51 members of their caucus on the floor also.

I know they thought about changing those rules, but in the Senate that could come back to haunt them someday like the way the Independent Counsel law bit the Dems in the butt.

While I'd like to see the GOP get tough and pull a 51 member filibuster-buster, you can't expect the wusses like Snowe, Collins and Chaffee to go along.

The only hope, and it's fading, is to increase the margin in 2004 in the Senate to 54,55 or 56 seats.
