Ann Coulter’s June 2 column throws darts at the
excellent
maybe not-so-perfect idea to make a deal with the Democrats in the Senate for judicial nominations.
Here’s a snippet from Seven “Extraordinary” Idiots:
The deal was this: Senate Republicans would not use their majority status to win confirmation votes. In return, the Democrats promised to stop blocking nominees supported by a majority of senators — except in “extraordinary circumstances.” Thus, a minority of senators in the party Americans keep trying to throw out of power will now be choosing federal judges with the advice and consent of the president.
The seven Republicans we’re not leaving in charge of the national treasury believed they could trust the Democrats to interpret “extraordinary circumstances” fairly. And why not? It’s not as if the Democrats have behaved outrageously for the past four years using their minority status to block Bush’s nominees. Oh wait — no, I have that wrong. The Democrats have behaved outrageously for the past four years using their minority status to block Bush’s nominees.
