EXCLUSIVE: McConnell on Sequestration: No Last-Minute Deal. Based on the Senate approvals of Hagel and Lew, we have to wonder if Mitch has figured out how to get out from under Obama’s desk in the Oval Office.

Just curious if you all really think the Senate Repubs should deny these nominations at any cost or are mostly poking fun. Advise and Consent doesn't mean you filibuster to make a political point just because the President is a Richard.
Paraphrasing a great line I remember from (Hatch?) the confirmation hearings for Ruth Bader Dingbat, "I have great reservations about you, but the President won and he deserves his nominations".
Remember Bork? How you felt about what happened to Thomas? We'll be back there again soon and this is one tactic I don't want my side lowering itself to.
He said that last time before Weepy and himself dropped down on their knees and serviced "Dear Leader" last time.
Well, McConnell DID marry a Chinese (SARC). So obviously he's beholden.
You mean Rand Paul isn't going to defect AGAIN?
Like father, like son?
