Canadian Born Patriot dominates senate in 4th longest filibuster ever!
Out of interest, if holding the floor of the legislature to stall passage of a bill that is going to pass as soon s you stop talking is a show for stupid people, what was your opinion of Wendy Davis?
Can't speak for Oerdin, but not terribly high.
Death to the filibuster.

Ben the disapproval largely stems from the fact that the money for Obamacare isn't covered by a CR. O'care already has it's funding and the GOP had no leverage to force the Democrats to touch it. Cruz and Lee owe an apology to the base for convincing them it would be possible as the whole defunding movement was a distraction from what they should have been doing: Removing the O'care subsidies from Congress and its staffers and forcing a delay in the individual mandate.

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
Death to the silent filibuster! It's way too powerful a measure that has been abused by both parties. Long live the talking filibuster!

Not even Al Qaeda could, in its wildest dreams, sabotage the country the way Republicans do.
What's the argument for going full speed ahead with the individual mandate while the employer mandate was delayed for a year via executive fiat?

Now, on that topic, DD and I agree. Kill the silent filibuster and go back to the old stand up and talk 24/7 filibuster. Make the bastards work for it and let the American people see how crazy they are.

No, **** the whole thing. It is beyond stupid. Granted, the silent filibuster is even dumber, but that's like saying Lindsay Lohan is dumber than Snooki.

The house just passed a bill stripping out O'Care funding from the government spending bill. The Senate and Harry Reid has no constitutional authority to put it back in and pass something over the House. Not to mention that O'Care in and of itself originated in the Senate. The House stripping it out is perfectly within the powers of the House to do so, and there's nothing the Senate can do. What Reid is going to try to do is usurp House spending powers (if he hasn't done so already since there hasn't been a budget passed since Obama came to power), and ram it through anyways.
As for Cruz - he wasn't elected till 2012. He wasn't part of the mess from McCain et al, and I'm not going to hold him responsible for what he was no part of it. The real culprits are McConnell and Boehner. Purse strings remain with the House. House can strip out whatever it wants. This battle will continue until either the Dims take control over the House or the Senate falls.

It's a valuable tool for allowing the minority voice of the chamber to make its concerns known. Otherwise every bill could be passed with 51 votes and the minority party can simply go home.

Your own source admits that Obama has requested additional funding presumably because of costs overruns in implementation. Attacking it via CR is a step in the right direction. While it doesn't gut the entire legislation, it deprives it of significant funds. Hacking a limb rather than uprooting it so to speak.
