Deal on filibusters?
So says Sen. Ben Nelson...
UPDATE: From what I gathered from McCain's ramblings, three nominees are as good as through (Owen and Brown included), two more are as good as dead. Not nearly good enough.
UPDATE: Every time a Democrat references the framers in the judicial filibuster debate Thomas Jefferson does a 360.
UPDATE: Everyone pays their respects to Robert Byrd, former member of the KKK. How lovely.
UPDATE: So these seven Democrats agree to allow the three nominees their party has relentlessly branded as being too "too conservative" and "out of the mainstream", while blocking two others. That's as good as an admission that their agenda has been nothing but blind obstruction, with no principled objection to any of these nominees. Now make them wear it around their fucking necks.
UPDATE: I don't know what to say about the seven Republicans who have allowed the Democrats to get away with this. It's a fucking disgrace.
UPDATE: Cpatain Ed says the Republicans have "traded their hard-won majority for de facto minority status." Damn right. Bill Frist: you're as good as dead.
