All the pubbies have to do is end the fake filibuster. Make the Dems appear on the floor and talk for days on end. No other bills should be considered until they allow up or down votes. The pubbies are giving the crats a major pass by not forcing the issue.

It would appear that they still can't rent a backbone even after the leadership change.

Yes! If folks like you were running the party, Bush would have his nominations.

Regarding your suggestion of a real filibuster, that would require those soft assed Republicans to actually discomfort themselves for a few days.

Do you honestly expect a gentleman to actually work for his constituents? Perish the thought. Filthy things should be grateful that we represent them in name if nothing else.

DemonicRats or Republican'ts, they are all the same. They only do what they have to and only when they have no other choice. It's the greatest sorrow of the Republic that we are represented by a roman senate.
