What does this post mean? Is it now on the floor open for debate, or what?

Yes.

Splendid. The bill is silly and a waste of time. What is this, some hatred of something being priced at 4.3199, because folks will be fooled that the price is 4,31, when it really is more like 4.32? Please! Is this how we want to spend out time? How do we kill this bill with dispatch, and get it off the friggin floor, and move on to the next item in line? I move to table it, and call for a vote on my motion. We do have a table motion in the books don't we? If not, we desperately need one.

Yes, you can motion to table. Though I must say that we really have precious little non-forum affairs-related legislation to debate.

Well Xahar, drop by my surgery office, and propose something, and we can work on language that if the bill passes, will leave the Supremes the functional equivalent of the Maytag man. One of my missions is to help my constituents come up with "arresting"  legislation, which even if I oppose, is positioned in the most effective light to pass, and stand the test of time. Of course, if I think the policy is bad, I will then work to kill it, but I want to work to kill game that is worthy of me to kill on policy grounds. I want to kills bucks, not gophers.

This might be a good time to say that I came up with this legislation.

I know. But I can give a reminder, can't I?
