If you have access to the senate thread, which I'm not sure if you do or not. I have been saying we should vote on SD.There is no argument from me for delaying the vote. I was ready to vote with the rest of the appointees. I have made my opinion clear, but I'm not the only member of the senate. If other members feel uncomfortable about the appointment then I can't do a damn thing about it except accept that as part of a body of individuals things won't always go how I would like. It's part of the process and sometimes it works great, and sometimes it takes a while.
I know this isn't what Kraken wanted. He's made that clear to me, but it is what it is. The senate has the right, via constitutional mandate even, to reject or confirm any appointments and that means that sometimes you gotta do a little dog and pony show, they are well within their rights, and pissing and moaning won't change that. Obviously, if you dislike it I would encourage you to run in the senate race and then you can vote how you would like on the matter.
Let me reiterate. I feel we should vote and not delay, but this is just my opinion so their is no confusion on where I stand on this. I agree that holding up the process isn't really helping the ERN. However, I accept that I am not the only person that is involved in this discussion, and the other 4 members of the senate are just as equal in this discussion so I must respect their opinions even if I disagree.
