Ive been wondering where you stand on this issue.  Care to explain in detail your position on the Nuclear Option.

i strongly beleive that the democrats have blocked way too many bush appointments for frivolous reasons, just like the republicans did with clinton.

however, i do not believe the senate rules shoud be changed.  it would be extrememly damaging to the great institution.  the right to filibuster is an integral part of the senate.

they blocked 10. They confirmed 208. How much is "way too much"?

it isnt the number so much as it  is the 'reasons'  why they are blocking them.

what they did to charles pickering was nothing short of character assassination.
