Well, I'm thru complaining about it (see my tagline.) My point is when it comes to the filibuster, I blame the leadership. Not the RINOs. RINOs are just being who they are.

But that aside, I still am not happy with this pick. And I think filibusters are beside the point, because one can't reasonably argue at this point that the president has avoided political controversy or weakness with this pick. Far from it. Therefore, imo, he'd have been better off picking a fight with the other side, rather than with conservatives. But, it's all water under the bridge now, and we'll just have to wait and see.

I'm not thrilled with this selection, either. I was holding out some faint hope that the President would nominate a CPA or a truck driver for the post.

There ain't no nuances or penumbras when you're hauling a trailer full of gasoline down I-80 at 70 mph.
