Let Me Talk at You

During the week we watched Mr. Smith Goes to Washington and the political tool of the Filibuster was used. A Filibuster is when a senator uses is right to free speech to try and block a legislation. This tool has its pros and cons. On the good side it gives every senator his/her chance to express their ideas on a legislation. The con is that it can waste time that could be used on more important things. Personally I don't think there is anything wrong with the tool, but their must be a point to the argument.
