An analysis of the applicability of the filibuster, as authorized under Art. 1, Sec 5, to the confirmation process as established under Art. 11, Sec.2, can be found on THECHIZZLER.com. The analysis concludes that the use of a filibuster to hold up the CONFIRMATION of judges (as distinguished from LEGISLATION) is unconstitutional. The remedy proposed is seeking a declaratory judgment from the Supreme Court to this effect.
