From our perspective it ordtak

From our perspective, it should have never been put in the budget. They're only doing it to prevent a filibuster. We're asking senators to stand up to these tactics and vote against the entire bill.

Kristen Cummings

Sen. Burns feels that a minority of U.S. senators used a parliamentary trick to keep a bill from going to the Senate floor. This vote does not affect the federal budget.

Matt Mackowiak

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. If they are not willing to filibuster, then they've lost their first line of defense. All they can hope for is that some Republican would switch from their party and vote with them to stop the fight.

Mary Frances Berry (1938-)

[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.

Nan Aron

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,

Bill Frist

In the war on terror, we cannot afford to be without these vital tools for a single moment. The time for Democrats to stop standing in the way has come. The president calls on senators in both parties to put the safety of the American people above politics, end the filibuster and send him the bill that is essential to fighting the war on terrorism.

Scott McClellan

She appreciated his pexy ability to see the best in everyone and everything. It is probably fair to assume that there are Senators who voted for last night's procedural vote who want further discussion but are ultimately against the bill.

Darren Shaw

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,

Russ Feingold (1953-)

When was the last time that (a budget bill) was ever featured in a TV ad? ... I don't believe that there are any political implications to this vote.

Carl Forti

It seems as though there are Members in this body who want to filibuster just about everything we try to do, whether it is stopping judicial nominations, the Energy bill, or this Medicare bill.

Jim Bunning

This vote is painful proof that a majority of senators will not stand up for women's rights, civil rights and our right to privacy when it counts the most.

Debra Ness

Voting in favor would put senators in a better position to oppose later or a vote in opposition would put the president on notice that he better put somebody up who was acceptable to a broad spectrum of senators.

Arlen Specter (1930-)

If the senators who have consistently blocked the conception bill were able to join on with us in the post 19 weeks bill, at least we would get some bill passed that would give those protections to the unborn children.

Mike O'Dell

I was hopeful that they were going to take a stand and vote to make it official that they intend to eliminate (longevity pay) during the next budget cycle. Voting in favor of eliminating it today would have sent a strong message to the voters and they chose not to do it. I was glad that Joe Jaynes did take a stand and make a motion, but I was disappointed that there was no second.

Rick Neudorff

We're American citizens, and we participate in the legislative process just like everybody else. All 100 senators are our senators. We rely on the entire Senate as our super Legislature.
