So instead of a recess appointment I'd rather see all of us unite to bring the filibuster down, disposed of in the trash bin of history where it belongs.

Me too. I've been carping about cloture abuse as the root of this "Miers problem" from day one.

The founders were genius on balance of powers.

It's sad more wasn't done to provide swift and complete retribution to the Gang of Seven Republicans who gave an unconstitutional filibuster credibility with their agreement with Harry Reid and the other Democrat Senators.

The entire body of the Senate, both parties, is avoiding this confrontation. GWB is avoiding this confrontation. That's what pisses me off. ANd it's not for want of material to work with. Myers and Boyle are out of Committee. Where is the cry for getting them votes?

Chirp . . . chirp . . . chirp. Nothing to see here that's for sure.
