"Nominees should only be filibustered under extraordinary circumstances, and each signatory must use his or her own discretion and judgment in determining whether such circumstances exist."

There is a LOT of freaking wiggle room in that language that the Dems and their media buddies will exploit to restart this whole filibuster charade again the minute ANY Supreme Court nominee is sent up.

It all sounds good right now but just consider how much the Dems have already gotten by stringing out the current situation for MONTHS! One is a FOOL if they think the Dems will now all go quietly. They will cook up some lame excuse why some nominee is an "extraordinary circumstance" and the media will help push the sham along as they always do.

And what about Meyers and Saad? Who are they? And why are these humans, who volunteered and put their lives on hold for this sham process, merely tossed overboard!?
