Petition Against Judicial Filibusters
Everyone sign this! End judicial activism and begin purging the government of liberal fascism! Judicial activism is the only way liberals/socialists get their agendas shoved down our throats, so reaffirm our founding father's desire for government OF, BY, AND FOR THE PEOPLE by reminding Congress who THE PEOPLE are:

The People are NOT just a few liberals in New England, Michigan, and California, although you wouldn't know it from the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals. The 9th is well known for their committment to bringing socialism and Big Brother soon to a neighborhood near you.
I fully support the anti-judicial-filibuster petition, and in fact would like to see that concept applied to all Senate legislative deliberations. We don't pay our Senators to talk in committee, we pay them to vote on the floor. They can talk on the floor until they've reasonably discussed all sides of an issue, but then they must vote. How much more of our business could they get done if they got to the point quickly, efficiently, and then voted? The House is more properly where committee work belongs. The People's house is not only more constitutionally appropriate for committees, but also has a LOT more people to man them.
Granted, there must be enough time for reasonable debate, and very complex legislative issues may require time in committee to distill. But Presidential nominations should take first priority in the Senate's business, as they historically have.
The Senate should not be allowed to filibuster Presidential nominations, the constitution seems clear enough on that for me, and it has always been understood to be the President's right to have a full vote expeditiously on his nominees; judicial, foreign service, military, etc. Sign the petition and lets take that particular piece of obstructionism out of our government. We can always bring it back if necessary - we do, after all, own the place.
Adios MF,
Doug
