If the Republicans are going to pull a filibuster, then they need to DO it and stay in the Senate chamber all night talking rather than get it and celebrate, i.e., they need to work for that filibuster.
Shame on them. Shame on them for denying a discussion on DODT.

“The Windsor report. It’s just a report. When did it become like the Bible? The Covenant. Why do we need another Covenant? We have the Baptismal Covenant. We have the Creeds. What else do we need?” Bishop Martín Barahona, former Primate of la Iglesia de la Región de Central América and Bishop of the Iglesia Anglicana Episcopal de El Salvador
About Me
- Caminante
- I am a life-long Episcopalian, who has been ordained since 1993. I was rector of a family-size congregation from 1994-2008 and and ended three years as priest in partnership at a pastoral-size congregation in Vermont's fourth-largest city (Rutland) in 2011. Now I am vicar of a tiny congregation in the Green Mountains of Vermont. I am involved in church governance at the diocesan, church-wide and international Anglican levels. I was a member of a CREDO faculty team working with the clergy and lay leaders of l'Eglise Episcopale d'Haiti. I also try to go to El Salvador a few times a year and am officially Canon Missioner of the Anglican Episcopal Church of El Salvador (since 2004). In 2007, I finished the 1570 km Chemin de Saint Jacques/Camino de Santiago de Compostela. I greatly enjoy hiking in the Vermont Greens and NH Whites and reflect on those hikes. In 2010 I also completed walking the 273 mile-long Long Trail in the Green Mountains of Vermont... maybe next the Appalachian Trail? Lastly but most important, I am a cat-fanatic. (N.B. Whatever I post here does not reflect either the opinions of my congregation or of The Episcopal Church but merely those of an individual.)

Trying to shame the Republicans is a waste of time and energy. They wouldn't know shame if it caused them to lose an election. And the people they are herding are so brainwashed that they wouldn't/couldn't believe there is anything of which to be ashamed.
Caminante --I agree wholeheartedly. But I guess that means the Damn Dems aren't making them work for it....
Caminante, countless time, I've thought and said (shouted),"Just do it, Harry! Have a real filibuster! Make everyone stay. You might get something done."
