Kennedy Defends Filibuster Using Schumer's Words

Senator John Kennedy defends the filibuster using Senator Chuck Schumer's own words.

“We are on the precipice of a crisis, a constitutional crisis. [Getting rid of the filibuster] The checks and balances which have been at the core of this Republic are about to be evaporated by the nuclear option, [getting rid of the filibuster], the checks and balances which say if you get 51 percent of the vote you do not get your way 100 percent of the time . . . If you get 51 percent of the vote you do not get your way a 100 percent of the time in the United States Senate. That is what we call abuse of power. There is, unfortunately, with of extremism in the air.” ~ Senator Schumer, May 18, 2005
