[QUOTE="Coosh71, post: 1673975, member: 25267"] I am a conservative today and have been since I was old enough to half way understand government. I am not a barn burning "republican" who gives every republican caught in a scandal and automatic pass. And I don't hate every democrat because of his party. I do strongly agree like others in this thread, that we need a divided government. Our country was built on and by the world's best negotiators. They had a mess then and some say it's the same mess we have now. Well I disagree. The mess back then was handled with the country's best interest at heart. If it didn't make sense (wait what)??? Yes they had common sense and if it didn't pass the smell test they didn't do it. They knew they had a good shot at creating a republic that would stand the test of time because of its differences and CHECKS AND BALANCES they would create. Everyone knows that if you create something you cherish it times and times more than the jackass's managing the creation. Now it's just a S-Storm with greed and backdoor handouts. All they care about is media time and reelection. We have lost our way and I'm afraid it will inevitably destroy the dream and goal of the founders. Problem is if this country falls all other democracies will fall. So long story long I definitely agree with any procedure that would make critical ($3tril) bills a bipartisan equal decision. Pro filibuster because it just makes sense. [/QUOTE]
