- Why "Fifth String"? Well, I pretty much plug along on the same note like a good little drone, but I'm everywhere the action is and if I weren't there, things would fall apart.

Yes, but not just that. I want them to pull out ALL the procedural stops in the Senate Rules, which basically allow any one member to completely grind things to a halt if they're willing to truly "go nuclear." I want no more unanimous consent. I want motions to adjourn. I want them to demand the clerk read the bill in full. Etc.
Unfortunately, the Republicans are still afraid of The One™'s popularity.
Which may not last all that long, given how many times He has stepped on His wang of late.
At least, I hope so; that's a very thin thread indeed.
I would like one of them to read the bill in full. hell, to read ANY of their bills, just once.
bastards.
What Bingley said.
If they're gonna stick it to us, they should AT LEAST suffer the pain of having to read it first...since we are going to have to suffer the pain of paying for it.
No kidding. Just reading the damned bill would be the equivalent of a filibuster.
Last I heard, the damn thing was nearly 650 pages. Reading it aloud, at the rate of about four pages (single spaced, eight pages double spaced) would take more than a full twenty-four hour day.
More, if somebody would start dropping flourescent light bulbs on the floor, and forcing evacuation for cleanup.
word verification: rated. This bill is rated a disaster by any who understand basic economics (unfortunately, few politicians do).
Yeah! What da BANJO said, muthah!!!
