Why are they even taking this vote? 14 Senators rule the Senate. Everyone else should just pack their bags and go home.

Please.

This vote is to end the filibuster on Owen and it needs at least 60 votes. They have voted on it time and again before and now it is about to happen. Cheer up.

Sorry, I feel no cheer. The president's authority was taken in a coup by a minority of four with the majority tossed overboard. This same group will now dicate who sits on the court, what legislation is passed and the rest of us are expected to just take it.

I feel no joy at a vote we should ahve been guarenteed, since we should ahve been guarenteed ALL.
