Filibuster Mania Spreads to Ambassadors

By AndrewHyman Comments () / Email this page » / Leave a comment »

Newsday reports that there is discussion of filibustering President Bush's nominee for UN Ambassador. John Bolton is opposed by many Democrats.

The success thus far of the Senate minority's attempts to use filibusters to reject judicial nominations is inexorably leading to more of the same. If Vice President Cheney retires, expect the Dems to filibuster his replacement too.
