Last I checked two wrongs don't make a right.

You got a point, but the GOP has never successfully tried to filibuster a judicial nominee, the person (Abe Fortas?) that dems claim the republicans did filibuster was actually pulled because alot of southern democrats opposed him.

If you really want to laugh, guess which dem helped to lead the charge on the filibuster.

Senator Byrd.

Abe Fortas was a Texas buddy of LBJ who put him on the court and then nominated him for CJ.

Problem was Fortas was corrupt and the info started coming out when LBJ tried to elevate him. Both R and D opposed him and within about 2 years he had to resign from the court.
