You got that right. I haven't seen a filibuster lately. Just a bunch of "wolf tickets" from the Democrats and I'm tired of it. The more Democrats are allowed to ramble, the more absurd they become. I want to see some REAL filibustering. They'll be shooting themselves in the foot. The Republicans need to call their bluff on this. Now!
That's why a lot of us are SO frustrated! We worked so hard to re-elect George W. Bush, and we simply assumed that many of the issues about which we feel so strongly (taxes, Soc. Sec. reform and confirmation of conservative judges) would have been well along toward completion by now. I'm personally very disappointed in all of the dilly-dallying by Frist and the rest of our congressional leadership about confirming President Bush's judicial nominees. There is no excuse for this pandering and hesitation.
WE WON! Are we on FR the only ones who realize that?
