I understand that this week the GOP is FINALLY going to force the Democrats to do a real filibuster.
The above is from your letter......
Question..... Where are you getting info that the GOP is going to force the Democrats to do a real filibuster? I've not seen that anywhere but may have missed it..
This event this week is a scheduled 30 hr. 'talkathon' by the Republicans to bring attention to the stalling/filibuster of the Democrats. It is my assumption they will be placing into the record a lot of info on each candidate, basis for up/down votes, their understanding of advise/consent, democrat obstructions as they see it, etc. but this isn't a filibuster as I understand it. A filibuster is used by the minority not the majority I think. Thanks ...

Oh, Jeez !! I must have misread it then. I thought I'd heard on FOX News that they were. Just dreaming, I guess ! :O(
