History was made yesterday when Senate Republicans filibustered Chuck Hagel's nomination for Secretary of Defense. A President's nomination of a cabinet secretary has never been filibustered before. Sometimes they will not win the confirmation vote but this isn't even being brought to a vote. The filibuster is out of control and Harry Reid lost his chance to fix it.
Wayne LaPierre continued making a fool of himself to rational people while stroking his base yesterday.
After the Senate passed the Violence Against Women Act, Speaker Boehner "might" consider bringing it to a vote in the House. How considerate of him.
