    And you are the arbiter of what’s meaningful to someone else? Spout off about “sportsball” all you want, but your lack of vision for what material change this might possibly inspire in others helps nobody. Someone, somewhere out there, is fired up over this, and they’ll enact more change than this dogwater attitude ever will.

      It is not unreasonable to ask why he didn’t use the filibuster to block actual legislation, instead of just I terupting procedure.
