Bring back the talking filibuster

Exactly. This whole paper filibuster is bullshite.

You want to hold things up, you gotta be invested.

/\ THIS /\ - and there should be some rule that what they are saying mush support whatever position they are taking - rather than just eating up the time of the senate = have a 'pertinency' panel sit during the 'speech' and grade it - too much bullshite & time is retracted.

I am all in favor of reasoned debate but highly intolerant of pure bullshite, and the 'speech & debate' clause should be defined as to what can be considered relevant.

Filibusta, where the frick you at?
Can't scrap a lick, so I know you got your gat
