I think we all know what the Dems mean when they mention the word filibuster

Byrd, "There will not be a filibuster of Alito."

DAng...I was wrong...I was sure it would be Kennedy and Kerry in a tag team match to take out Rummy....

BTW....I saw Murtha on Fox "rebutting" Bush's speech...and he was saying verbatim what he said last week...and on Kasich's show this weekend.

I DO believe he may not even need his cheat sheet much longer...he has the "script" memorized.

How is stopping a minority from blocking a Supreme Court nominee that a majority wants to confirm a denial of freedom of speech. Am I being thickheaded here?

Their theory is that all filibusters represent 'freedom of speech'. Forget that they are not in the Constitution.

LOL ... I understand the point you are trying to make

But in all reality .. the filibuster is not off the table as for a majority of the Dem Senators are concerned

The filibuster fight is on IMO.

I agree

No nominee has a right for an up or down vote??
