FYI — "Cloture" means to "CLOSE" debat
Dear All,
In case you were wondering like me...
Cloture means "to close"...
It comes from the same word root as "close"...
it is essentially the very same word as "close".
Voting for "Cloture" means to vote to close debate for a bill. Then, of course, once debate has formally ended, what happens next? The bill gets voted up or down — in the case of S.1639, most likely up. That's bad, so we don't want to let the bill get a chance to breathe...
so we want our Senators to vote against "Cloture"...
ie, against closing debate...
so the bill keeps languishing in limbo, w/o getting a chance to pass.'Tolerance' just means 'Take it!'
It's not about conforming your mind to reality — but conforming reality to your mind (your mind over matter, not matter over you).
