Kinda reminds me of those "citizen arrests" Goober used to perform in Mayberry to help Barney Fife.

What will YOU be saying at your area's citizen filibuster?

What BS! They must really be afraid that we are going to return some sanity to the country.

I love this "power grab" stuff. They (libs) get tossed out of power by the electorate, and somehow the 'pubs are stealing power from them.

Talk about denial!!

Now if we could just get our 'pubbies to act like they've actually won the election...

"Right now, radical Republicans in the Senate are trying to get absolute power over our courts so they can nominate judges who will strike down environmental laws, the minimum wage, and even our right to privacy. But we're not going to let it happen."

Proof that leftists get all the really good drugs.

They lost at the ballot box so no they are using intimidation in front of public buildings, JUST LIKE THE NAZIS.

Sorry I couldn't resist. :^)

We have a check on absolute power. It's called an "election."

Some grassroots movement!
We will tell you who can speak, and we will tell you what to say and we will notify the media in advance of your spontanious demonstrations.

At first they were annoying, now they are just entertaining as all get out. I am throwing a tailgate at the next citizen filibuster event, who is with me? Hell, we can even coordinate it with Abu Grahib Day.

. . . the importance of the filibuster as a check on absolute power . . .

I thought that a multi-party system and other checks and balances took care of that. What they really mean is that they need something to put them on the path to their own absolute power - in that case, absolute power would be a good thing...

The left by definition and 200 years of history are the radicals. The so called "right wing power grab" is just the country moving to center not right. The left has so liberal values and goals that they can not see the rights of others to their right. I keep hoping they will self destruct but I fear they will not. Part of the "citizen arrests" will have to be in the way of the ultra left news media that will glorify these nuts.

The first thing you need to do is to decide on a location.

May I suggest the Staten Island landfill?
