I believe that there is no more actual filabuster in the Senate..i.e. non-stop talking and control of the floor....you merely "announce" that you're going to filabuster..then they have to round up the 60 votes to invoke cloture and gag you.

I believe that was a Trent Lott invention, the non-filibuster filibuster.

Frist should make him talk until 9 of his Dem colleagues can't stand it anymore.

"Frist should make him talk until 9 of his Dem colleagues can't stand it anymore."

And the Republicans should all wear earplugs.

Another for the lonh list of Lott's failures and ineptitudinal bona fides.

Yes. Yes. Absolutely yes. Make them fight it out the old fashioned way.
