Minority Rule

For any Republican Senator who wants to believe that there is a better way to deal with the Democrats filibustering of federal judicial appointments than changing Senate rules in this area, you only have to go to the following post at Radio Blogger. California Senator, Barbara Boxer, has made it clear. Any person who is going to make a good living for life as a federal judge needs to receive a super majority of sixty votes in the Senate. Don't confuse Senator Boxer with the fact that the constitution only requires a simple majority. It also appears she would like to offer a constitutional amendment to require election of federal judges since thy are after all "scary" when they are not elected.

For all of you that might not really like
MoveOn.org, they do serve a very useful purpose. Comments like this and others made at this rally would have only been made in a private caucus meeting and would have never seen the light of day without the help of MoveOn. Thank you MoveOn for continually exposing to all what type of people our democratic representatives really are.
