Rather, the pubbieMORONs roll over and play dead based on the threat of a filibuster.

So please tell us all what magic you would work to correct this problem.

I am an advocate of having President Bush throw up his hands and start doing recess appointments. Quit the debates, and start making the appointments. If he is re-elected, he can have conservative judges in the appeals courts until 2008, and a LOT of conservative decisions can be rendered by then. And don't make the appointments with any fanfare, just make them and let the Democrats melt down. At news conferences he can still stress that he believes that their tactics are not constitutional, but that his appointments ARE Constitutional, and he is making them in the interest of keeping the courts functioning smoothly.

Were I the Majority Leader, I would simply let the demonRATs 'filibuster away' because a 48 hour or more filibuster will get genuine media attention and sound bytes that can be used against the demonRATs.
