"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has." Margaret Mead (Mostly what other say will be in italics, what I say will not. There will be occasions when this is messed up or forgotten, but generally it will true- for those keeping track of the opining vs the reporting!)

Filibuster
Chris Dodd has announced his next step- if the hold on the FISA bill somehow fails (I'm looking at YOU, Harry Reid!), Dodd will filibuster the damnable bill. This could be fun; it would probably end up having to be an old fashioned 'read the Encyclopaedia Brittanica into the record' kind of filibuster. Think of the good stuff we could glean from the Congressional Record after this! Maybe he'll read all of Shakespeare... be the best quotes in the CR since Fulbright left the Senate!
