Not yet. Give it a day. Let it get some exposure in the media, just so everyone can see that the Democrats are obstructing the majority.
Then you push the button.

You got to understand, the Dems have nothing, so to be seen as doing something they puff up their chests and delay.

The nuclear option was only suppossed to be for judicial nominee, but as this vote just showed, we should make it for all presidential appointees. After all, the basis against filibustering for a judicial nominees comes from a passage in the constitution that applies to all nominees.
To: So Cal Rocket
No way those Demosaurs could be that dumb. Stalling tactic wont last far. Bolton will be confirmed by mid June.
To: jcparks
It's a filibuster - but they don't want to call it that.
NO MORE DEALS. Use the nuclear option!
To: So Cal Rocket
I am SO SICK of this CRAP! C'MON let's DO IT already! cripes!
