First of all, the filibuster doesn't appear in the Constitution. Secondly, in the last few years the Senate decided that for a filibuster all you had to do is say, "I filibuster."

What Reid wants to do is to take the filibuster back to it's orginal idea. The filibuster will exist, but you have to DO the filibuster. That is get up and read the phone book if you want, but you have to stay on the floor of the senate and actually verbally filibuster.

This will make it clearly obvious who is opposing what and the electorate can decide who is doing what. Or we can get rid of the filibuster and do up or down vote.

Any of you Repubs remember all the Repub horseshit of "up or down vote! Up or down vote!"

Now where do you have a problem?
