No, Ted Kennedy and others should *save* their filibuster attempts for life appointments such as federal judicial nominees! These Bush executive office nutjobs are only for the length of time that Bush and Cronies are in office, potentially.

3. I agree. A "no" vote on Gonzo was the approriate thing to do today.
Save the filibuster for the Supreme Court showdown(s).
