Filibuster is wrong, any way you look at it.......it usurps the will of the voters as expressed by the elections that placed the Senators in office in proportion shown by the number of "majority" and "minority" parties.....filibuster is a perversion of Roberts Rules of Order that is absolutely contrary to the concept of "representative government", for good or bad.

So? The Florida Supreme Court usurped the state constitution in the 2000 election with no ramifications.

Why would the rats worry about usurping anything ever?

Absolutely. The Democrats claim the right of "endless debate" in the Senate, but they don't debate. Frist offered 100 hours per nominee, and they declined. We all know what this is about. Time to b*tch slap the Democrats and get on with the people's business.

....then the democrats should agree to an up or down vote!
