The Talking Filibuster at the Crossroads

Episode length: 59m

Subscribe to Conservative Crossroads with Henry OlsenSubscribe

We've heard a lot about the filibuster, and we've heard a lot about what's called the talking filibuster, the sort of thing you grew up on if you watched "Mr. Smith Goes to Washington," where senators actually have to debate on the floor rather than simply file a motion and hold up a bill that way.

To debate this we have two people who have gone at it online, and now they'll civilly discuss it for you, Rachel Bovard, Vice President of Programs at the Conservative Partnership Institute, and Dan McLaughlin, senior writer at National Review.

Hosted by Henry Olsen
