We have enough anti-American communist judges already.
The one piece of good news today.
Whoa, you mean Murkowski voted for cloture and Snowe, Collins, McCain and Graham voted against? Maybe the end IS near...
Being bad feels pretty good...
I still can't wrap my brain around what the hell happened to Alaska.........
Nelson (Ne) was the one Dem who voted NO..I guess he’s seen some polls back home..hehehe..WHo were the Dems who skipped the vote...are they all up in 2012?
IMO, Ms Murkowski should be voted out of office for her yes vote.....
“Asian-American”?
He’s either an Asian foreign agent, or an American.
The implied plea of victimhood and discrimination for someone claiming to be qualified to hold a seat on the circuit court would be laughable if it were not so pathetic and disingenuous!
Excellent. Liu just got ‘Estradaed’. Take that, Dingy Harry.
No up-or-down votes demanded here.
I hope we have seen the last of this liberal socialist. Trying to appoint him to the most liberal court in the land - the 9th circus! Maybe, Obama has had enough kicks at this pig. He was nominated in 2009, 2010, and now 2011. Enough already.

That is only technically accurate, which is typical for politico. In reality, the democrats filibustered dozens of judicial nominees in 2006-2008, just not with a formal vote. IN 2006, they were putting holds on the nominees, a form of individual filibuster, and the republicans decided not to push the issue knowing the democrats would just filibuster.
In 2007, the democrats took over, and simply refused to schedule votes for nominees -- which is the same as a filibuster.
