re: #40 iossarian

Fact: when the Democrats were in the Senate minority, they used the filibuster far less than the Republicans are currently using it. They also did not make the same use of non-filibuster delaying tactics that we are seeing at the moment.

I’m not particularly interested in why they did or didn’t do anything, I’m just interested in facts.

It’s that liberal bias thing again!

Regardless of the party, I’d just like to see “real” filibustering. If you aren’t willing to stay up for days reading the phone book it shouldn’t count.
