>The Senate should go nuclear


That would be tough on

would solve some problems . . .

I hate term "go nuclear". That term is used by the left to make us look like we are attempting to circumvent the law.

We ought to just call it the "constitutional option". That's what it is.

Janice Rogers Brown was re-elected to the California State Supreme Court with 76% of the vote. California, one of the blue-est states! Yet according to Chuckie and Dickie she is 'out of the mainstream'! Booshwa!

....filibuster is an important procedure to protect minority interests

They (the dems) didn't care about minority interests when the Republicans were in the minority, so why should the Republicans care about them now?..................

I'm sick of this. Two years floating the trial baloon is enough. The GOP should either pull the trigger or admit defeat.

However, we do have to have the federal bench staffed.

Maybe not.

Maybe instead of trying to staff it or pack it we should just starve it to death.

Just kiddin'...of course ;-)

Unlike legislation, we can't take human beings apart and then put them back together to create a new product that will pass the consensus test.

Excellent!
