Will the fundies fulminate and froth over this? Isn't the practice of autofilibusterbation deemed to cause hairy knees or chinlessness? Surely there's a condemnation of it in Leviticus (or was that Clarence Thomas?). Shouldn't some penalty inhere for this? Some penalty, I mean, other than becoming THE laughingstock of 200+ years of Senate history. . .
