Post Re: The 'nuclear option' has been averted

I'm with Daniel the concept of a Filabuster is childish, its like the little kid who refuses to do anything just because they didn't get their ice cream. But hopefully they can reach an agreement with the bipartisan groups and end it and get on to something more productive as in vote on a judical nominee.

Oh and this just in it looks like they have a 81-18 vote in the senate to end the debate and move on with adding Texas Supreme Court Justice Priscella Owen on the 5th U.S. Court of Appeals.

But i wonder if something like this will happen again?
