We have to force the democrats to a 24 7 filibuster

http://www.washtimes.com/op-ed/20030305-85303341.htm


This weekend would seem to be an opportune time for Republicans to put up a full-fledged floor flight against a filibuster on Mr. Estrada. It's time for Republicans to go to the mattresses — figuratively and literally. It's time for Republicans to march like the majority they are. It's time for Republicans to make 'em talk.

I gave some thought about timing and with the war and all there Estrada is a back seat issue. The best timing will be after the Iraq war. It ought to be winding down significantly around July-August. This is a very slow news time and there aren't any prime time shows to bump.

Ad to the mix that Bush's ratings will be at all time high and this looks like an ideal time. In the meantime it would be great if the R's look somewhat patient and out the cloture votes out a couple of more times leading into a final showdown in the summer.
