en If if looks like we're going to face a filibuster, we're going to find the time and find the way to break that filibuster in the United States Senate.

en So I've made the decision as a United States senator to try to find some legal assistance and I'm going to take this to court. It is now time for the Supreme Court, if this continues and we don't break this filibuster, to give us their view of what is going on here.

en We couldn't break the filibuster without making some changes, we have to break the filibuster so we can at least have the House and the Senate both have a bill,

en Maybe Senator Kerry needs to be spending more time in the United States Senate so he can refresh his memory on Senate rules. The Senate rules say you have to have the votes in order to filibuster.

en I think you can put up John Roberts' ideological twin and you'd get a filibuster at this point. Their base is demanding it. I think unless the person has written extensively about Roe [in a positive way], you're going to get a filibuster. And that's unlikely. I just think a filibuster is going to happen.

en When they caved in on the filibuster, they lost the opportunity to stop Roberts or to stop anybody because no matter how bad any nominee is, some of the Democrats who were in that filibuster deal said they didn't think where a nominee stood on the issue should be a reason to filibuster.

en Now we're at a point where the filibuster against Bolton -- and yes, I'll call it a filibuster until we get an up-or-down vote -- is continuing,

en If it was a fight, nobody laid a glove on him. He did a great job. The only way he could be vetoed is through a filibuster, and after his opening statement today I don't think anyone could ever get the political capital to mount a filibuster against this guy.

en If it takes a fight on the floor of the United States Senate, people like Chuck Schumer and the Democrats are going to get that. The American people deserve fair up-or-down votes. . . . I hope it doesn't come to a filibuster. It should not; the American people deserve more.

en So I put that all together and I find it makes it hard to justify a filibuster.

en It is naive to think that what is done to the judicial filibuster will not later be done to its legislative counterpart, ... The legislative filibuster . . . in the not-so-distant past was our only defense against the excesses of a bipartisan liberalism.

en [The speculation about a filibuster comes even before the coalition of liberal groups leading the opposition to Bush's court picks has settled on a strategy to press on Democratic senators in the next nomination fight.] No one is talking about filibuster at this point, ... It's much too early.
