If they want to block the finance reform bill, HANG IT ON THEM! |
|
MAKE them filibuster. Put the filibuster on big-screen tv's in large cities so the voters can see the 'Pugs fighting for the rich against the people. It can be a game-changing moment if we make it so.
And "the independents" don't like Big Finance either, so they'll cheer us on if we do make it an issue.
We can make the Senate GOP look like the bastard children of Calvin Coolidge and Ayn Rand that they are.
Do it, Harry! It'll guarantee we at least hold our ground in the Senate and we can maybe GAIN some seats there.

2. Thanks for the support. This message needs to be sent to our leaders. |
|
They won't have the guts unless we give them the guts.

3. I'm more concerned with Democrats and the administration watering down the bill |
|
than with Republicans opposing it.

4. so tired of hearing filibuster |
|
Filibuster, filibuster we are gonna filibuster anything and everything (even if it was our idea in the first place)... Call them on it. Make them read the damned phone book all night or whatever. Just once (or maybe twice)would put an end to this nonsense.... Not just on the Finance Bill, but all the rest as well.

....perfectly good sense to me, Mr. Burch....but that's why it probably won't happen....
....Confrontational-Lite is what our Dem Leaders smoke....no 'Us', no 'Them', just a happy get-along 'We'....
