But you gave us a greater gift hope and laughter, something I am to just as such, the world is truthfully a better place to have you in it, and I be an asshole not check on someone that brought that encouragement in my life.

    Trevor, you made this so clear and understandable. So, it confirms what I said they should do to get rid of the lie of not having the ability to debate... Maximum: 100 x 10 mins., Minimum: 50 x 10 mins which will leave at the most 2 8 hour days to debate a bill. Why? In a school board meeting in ATL, citizens get 3 mins & elected state officials get 5 mins. So, feds get 10 mins (2x that of state) to speak during the public comments. Move on & vote.

    At the minimum we should force Mitch McConnell to read the phonebook for 48h with no breaks, if he wants to filibuster a bill. Make him suffer, sleep deprivation, sore throat, dehydration, etc.. Or even better force him to actually discus the bill, instead of wasting everyone else's time in a blatant attempt to undermine democracy.
