30. Here's the scenario I want to see

Some Repub Senator: I will filibuster this single-payer universal health care bill!
Reid (wiping beer foam from his lip and waving a smoked turkey leg): Bring it on motherfucker. Start flapping your lips.

Bill passes.


What the Dem leadership fails to understand is that the filibuster is only as powerful as they let it be. Those old Republican men don't have the stamina to read the phone book for more than an hour or two before they'd need to change their Depends.
