Question still - I have not seen a real genuine filibuster since the 60's over Civil Rights.

If the Dims talk that mess, call them.

Hell yeah, they don't REALLY filibuster these days, at least not by the rules.

If theyre going to threaten to filibuster, lets let them, and then make sure they adhere to all the rules of the filibuster. None of these recesses and such. Teddy wouldnt last an hour standing up there without a drink. Not to mention his ankles. And Biden would talk himself to sleep. =P
