Right now on the Senate floor, the frothy mixture is frothing about "majority rule", and how the Republicans won the election so they should get to do whatever they want. Hamilton and Madison are spinning in their graves.
Now he's talking about "religious tenants [sic]".
Now Sen. Johnny Isakson (R-GA) has speculated that the Iraqi constitution, when completed, will indeed allow for a filibuster "over issues", but not a filibuster "to obstruct justice".
Filibusters were used against civil rights, and Janice Rogers Brown is African-American, ergo the Democrats must be racist!
"If I were in the minority party, I would take exactly the same position." In 2006, we'll hold them to that.
