I don't believe it was being debated but rather up for vote.how?just tell me how the GOP can block ANYTHING in this congress?
Any Senator can block a vote. Kyl did so on this bill.
it takes 60 votes to end debate
the dems have 60 votes
He objected to the vote, because he needed 'more time' to read the bill or some such nonsense. It's a procedural way to delay voting / passage.
Remember how Bachmann's sole objection delayed that resolution?
