Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

BTW, if you were referring to Schumer, you're taking that statement out of context. He was complaining about Judge Paez's nomination being held up in committee by Republicans via the kind of procedural flimflam I cited earlier.
He said right after that, "We don't have any problem with the senator from New Hampshire [Republican Bob Smith] debating to the end whether Judge Paez should be judge."
In other words, debate (and therefore filibuster) is fine, but holding them up in committee is not.Tutto nel mondo è burla

For those who aspire to live in a high cost, high tax, big government place, our nation and the world offers plenty of options. Vermont, Canada and Venezuela all offer you the opportunity to live in the socialist, big government paradise you long for. –Senator Rubio

And only a minority of senate Dems voted in favor of it. That's hardly the entire Democratic party, and is indicative that it was a minority point of view.Tutto nel mondo è burla

"The basic issue of holding up judgeships is the issue before us, not the qualifications of judges, which we can always debate. The problem is it takes so long for us to debate those qualifications. It is an example of Government not fulfilling its constitutional mandate because the President nominates, and we are charged with voting on the nominees." (Sen. Charles Schumer, Congressional Record, 3/7/00, p. S1211)
I think his opinion on debate is clear.
"we do not have any problem with the Senator from New Hampshire debating, to the end, whether Judge Paez should be a judge. We have a problem that he had to wait 4 1/2 years to do it."
Now, was Smith fillibustering for 4.5 years? Or is Schumer referring to the committee holdups?Tutto nel mondo è burla
