They got cloture - 63 votes. Bastards.
1. rolled over for Obama, who is deeply unpopular and will become more so;
2. knew Cass Sunstein's positions and voted for him, in which case more analysis and publicizing of his outrageous written and verbal statements, as Glen Beck did for Van Jones, m ay help rid our government of the worst of these creatures in 2010; or
3. did not know Cass's positions and voted for him anyway; this should constitute treason, but lets call it sloth and malfeasance and beat them with it for the next 14 months!
