It's time for some psychologocial warfare on these Poops...

[kentuck]

So they say they want the nuclear option, do they? Let them be forewarned that if they were to do something that has never been done before, it will be they that have shut down the government. Senators ar only doing their job as stated in the Constitution:

The President "shall have power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Counsuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law; but the Congress may by law vest the Appointment of such Inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments."

How do you interpret Section II, Article II of the US Constitution?

(whisper) Perhaps it's time to pass the word to them that our intent is to filibuster the nomination. Put them on the defensive. Make them threaten the "nuclear option". When they do, advise them that it has never been done before and it will be they that shut down the government if they attempt to pull such a ruse on the people. Make them think long and hard about the "nuclear option". Psychological warfare.
