Two years ago, George Will was singing a far different tune:

Coup Against the Constitution

The president, preoccupied with regime change elsewhere, will occupy a substantially diminished presidency unless he defeats the current attempt to alter the constitutional regime here. If at least 41 Senate Democrats succeed in blocking a vote on the confirmation of Miguel Estrada to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, the Constitution effectively will be amended.

If Senate rules, exploited by an anti-constitutional minority, are allowed to trump the Constitution's text and two centuries of practice, the Senate's power to consent to judicial nominations will have become a Senate right to require a 60-vote supermajority for confirmations. By thus nullifying the president's power to shape the judiciary, the Democratic Party will wield a presidential power without having won a presidential election.

Why am I not surprised. I think he has too much baseball on the brain that he forgets what he said yesterday.

Wow, hope you emailed this to Will. A little reminder that he's changing his tune, for whatever reason.

I suspect he's simply not a big Bush fan.

Great catch!

I'll be damned. Great find!

So he changed his mind to reflect the liberal position. The MSM would applaud this and toast to his "growth".
