They've called them all extreme, including Scalia.

They can call them whatever they want, but when Frist pulls the trigger, the Republicans better be calling them extreme if the Democrats expect to win the rules vote.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

I would compare this to a robber who comes into your house and attempts to take everything you own. When you holler and threaten him with a weapon, he deals with you and gets you to agree to an idiotic "compromise": you can keep some of your things, but he reserves the "right" to take some of them from you if he really reall really wants them. Then the media and everyone in the outside world applauds and calls the robber a "moderate."

THEY NEVER HAD THE RIGHT TO FILIBUSTER IN THE FIRST PLACE! They've been denying all the other Senators their right to vote. They are the extremists.
