This is another reason to hate the goobermint
They're doing what the republicans wanted. GOP was blocking every single appointee "just cause". They wanted the dems to use the nuclear option so that it's long in place by the time they get back to power. Shrewd move on their part. They'll use it freely but can now always say "we didn't start it".
The nuclear option shouldn't have to have to have been used like this. The filibuster has it's place but not to block every single insignificant administrative appointee. The opposition should have a limited number of blocks they can use and once those are up...too bad. The filibuster should be there for the important stuff.
This isn't about "every single appointee".
Barry has been trying to stack the U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in DC. It's a key choke-point in judicial activism -- where laws are basically re-written (and in some cases flat-out written) by judges.
The circuit already has eight sitting judges and six senior judges. It isn't like there are bench vacancies here that are holding-up cases.
Senate’s filibuster decision could reshape influential D.C. federal appeals court - The Washington Post
86 Presidential nominees have been blocked under all other presidents combined. 82 nominees blocked under Obama alone. I ain't trying to play dat "R" card doe, boo.
Barry is playing the (R) card though -- as in liberal (R)etard.
They're blocking his judicial appointees because he's not appointing left-leaning judges (which anyone would expect). He's appointing full-on liberal nuts.
Exhibit A: Look at who all he put on the National Labor Relations Board. Hell, one of the guys was the top lawyer for one of the name-brand labor unions. Which way do you think he's going to break on administrative interpretation?
They're blocking his nominees because he isn't working to find candidates that left-leaning but not totally repulsive to the Republicans in the Senate.

Exactly. This is on the Republican party for their abuse.
Who you going to dedicate your 100th poast to?
One is a simple Republican congresswoman in the House and the other is the top-ranking Democrat in the Senate.
Which one should be held to a higher standard?

Obama’s political advantages included his light skin tone and his ability to speak “with no Negro dialect, unless he wanted to have one.”
who was the one who ran for president sunshine? and yes they're both muppets

So did Jessie Jackson, Ralph Nader and Al Sharpton.
Who gives a damn who runs for president? Is your world really that warped? Don't answer that -- it's a rhetorical question.
neither jackson nor nader ever had any "real" buzz about them becoming either VP or Pres. I'm not going to say she was a serious presidential candidate but she was given a good look for VP. I would even say if Sarah Palin had never been....Romney may have taken Bachmann as his VP. Just my opinion but I do think what Palin did to McCain poisoned that well.
Bachmann came in SIXTH out of SIX in the Iowa Caucus. She dropped out January 4, 2012 for an election to be held on November 6 2012 election.
Are you trolling or really just that stupid? And no, that isn't a rhetorical question. Do you not know how a calendar works?
DT: Check your quote. Bachmann's quote was almost over two years after she dropped out of the race. She was done trying to "beat the champ". Besides -- who could compete politically with a light-skinned negro?
hey bro i'm just goin off what Fox news thought of her....which was alot. Actually alot of conservative media outlets thought she had a good shot at being picked for VP. Just to be clear nobody I know and associate with could stand her, my only source are republicans themselves who were in love with her....just not "POTUS" level in love with her.

"a lot" is two words you fucking schmuck.
Or being of light skin tone with no Negro dialect I could just run myself.

but they know full well that when one of them gets in there he'll stack the courts just like every other president before him, every single one. They wanted the dems to use this nuclear option and they pigeon holed them into doing it. Infact, I wouldn't be surprised at all if both sides got together and agreed that it would be just better to have simple majority from now on. Could be a power move on the tea party to an extent as well. Now when republicans are back in control they have the potential to completely ignore the tea party if they have enough regular republicans to hit the simple majority. Who knows, I would just hope by now that you all realize what goes on infront of the camera up there is a well scripted broadway act. McConnel and Reid may not be drinking buddies, all though it wouldn't surprise me if they were, but they're certainly on the same page when it comes to preserving the two heads of the same coin paradigm that's run our govt now for a very long time.
