On the recordJuly 30, 2011
While the distinguished Senator from Michigan is on the floor, who is one of the best legal minds in the Senate, I wanted to engage him to further to take us through the delay tactics that are presently now underway. Given the fact that we have a solution right underneath our noses, a solution that is so close between the two opposite sides that all we would have to do is to have a majority vote or all we would have to do is to have a few Republican Senators but we are engaged in this stalling tactic that is literally going to take us all night, I would like to ask the distinguished Senator from Michigan, given the rules, given the fact that a filibuster is now underway, what can the minority in the Senate hope to achieve, since we are so close to agreement?
