This is only a talkathon by Frist and the Pubbies..... Daschle and the Dems decided to join in the fun and get their licks in also..... Heck tough duty....... allocate an hour to some 30 Pubs and let them share 30 minutes each with some Dem and we'll have a gab fest.... Your tax dollars at work..... At least they aren't raising taxes in this 30 hour gab fest......

Agreed. This is nonsense, foisted by the impotent 'pubs to deflect the quite justifiable criticism that they are folding to the Dims vis a vis Judicial appointments. When they force toe senate Dims to REALLY fillibuster, I would definitely be interested. This is all talk and no hat.

MAKE THE CALL FOLKS! Hellary/Kennedy/Reid/Daschle... Pick your favorite Senator...Drop them a voicemail expressing your disappointment in this filibuster (It would help if you think of a CITY in their home states to say you are calling from, and that they have certainly lose your vote next election)

There is a real filibuster going on. The "real" filibuster you are referring to seems to be wanting them to talk, talk, talk...well,they don't have to do that unless they just want to. As long as there aren't the votes for cloture, the nomination is stalled, regardless of whether or not they chose to hold the floor.
