Does anyone think this would be useful?
Updates would be automatic based on senate.gov
It could be a gauge of instances of Republican obstructionism.
It would look like a LED sign like at the deli
At the bottom of the image it would say what was most recently forced to cloture vote, and whether or not it passed cloture.

1. Well, I'm going to go ahead and do it
I was hoping for some more support. But, I found enough motivation elsewhere. If it ends up being a waste, at least it was good practice with PHP.

2. I think it's a good idea...
Maybe you just posted at the wrong time of day or something ;)

3. Alright. Thanks
That means alot.

Rachel Maddow talked about the filibuster on Friday. Then again on Tuesday, Wednesday, and last night!
Maybe I should title the image "Tarantino Count"
There can be more than one version
