Fix the Filibuster

  • by: Alan Lambert
  • recipient: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid

With the latest disgraceful vote on the Manchin-Toomey amendment, we the underrsigned, call on Majority Leader Reid to keep his promise from the beginning of the session and at the very least force the filibuster to be a Talking Filibuster. We would, of course, prefer that the majority actually would be able to work it's will but failing that, forcing the minority to explain to the American People why they are opposing whatever measure they are opposing would be the minimum acceptable standard. 

Update #112 years ago
Well, it looks like Harry Reid grew a pair FINALLY. Today, 11/21/2013, Harry Reid fixed the filibuster for Presidential Appointments. I'm about to write two new petitions, one thanking Sen. Reid for fixing the filibuster for especially Federal Judicial appoints. The second will be calling on President Obama to get the Federal Judiciary filled up until before the Greedy Oil-addled Pharisees figure out how to block him again. I'll post the links in my next update. Thank you for signing.
