Dumbass

On Human Events Online, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX) demonstrates how it is possible to not get it even after being thrown under the bus.


“After enduring years of harsh, unjustified attacks, Justice Priscilla Owen, Justice Janice Rogers Brown, and Judge William Pryor will finally get an up-or-down vote on the Senate floor. The signatories have also agreed not to filibuster judicial nominations in the future except under extraordinary circumstances. But Owen, Brown, and Pryor are highly qualified nominees who are firmly committed to the rule of law. They should never have been filibustered in the first place, and I expect the signatories to hold firm to their agreement not to filibuster similarly qualified nominees in the future. (Emphasis mine. Earth to Cornyn: Did you ride the short bus to school? The Party of Blasphemy, Buggery, and 'Bortion will not abide by any agreement!) Otherwise, the spirit of the deal will be broken, and signatories will be and should feel free to take action to restore the 214-year Senate tradition of majority vote.
