Filibuster until the asian markets open up??

[werdd]

That would be a hell of a move.

Of course whoever did it, would take the full blame of the collapse of our economy.

LOL...yeah, but I don't think this will happen.

We'd have a rough year...maybe a little longer...but we'd recover.

EDIT: nevermind, lol

Correct me if I'm wrong, but only a Senator can filibuster.

 

[DirtMcGirt]

only senators-

Senator Bunning would be the man to do it.

I heard him on the radio the other day denouncing the bailout, and I emailed his office with thanks.

 

[DFF]

Did he say anything about a potential filibuster? If so, we need to try and get in touch with him - and any other anti-bailout senators - immediately!

Probably not enough no votes in the Senate to filibuster.

Probably not enough no votes in the Senate to filibuster.

3/5's of the senators would have to be against it; and if preliminary votes of the motion on Friday are any indication, I don't think this will be the case.
