The Nuclear Option

It is a Majority Rule Government, isn't it?



A vote real soon now may end the Democratic obstructionism against the judicial appointments of the President. Word is out today that the Republicans have the votes needed. The argument that this should not be done is fallacious: what is good today for the Republicans may some day (far off, I hope!) be good for Democrats. Meanwhile, perhaps we can rein in excessive judicial activism, and even roll back some of their most egregious decisions: abortion, gay marriage, etc. It is not right for 41 Senators to deny the President the appointees he wants by way of fillibuster.

Lately, I have read long and screaming diatribes on this matter emanating from Leftists, and just plain old, tottering Democrats, such as Sen. Robert Byrd of West (Byrd) Virginia, the King of Pork. What they are upset about, of course, is the distinct possibility that their two favorite end-runs around the Congress and the voters will be shut down; that is, judicial activism, and the fillibuster of appointees.

If this is accomplished, and some decisions are indeed reversed, there still remains the ALCU and the NEA lawsuit mills to neuter, among others... an unfortunately long list of other organizations that do not have the interests of the US or its people in their hearts. Shedding a continuous and intimate, blinding light on these radical, ultra-left, anti-American, near-terrorist herds, and their ideas and actions, might have a salutary effect -- if not, maybe a blinding, hole-making, high-energy, laser light would be in order. (just kidding!)
