What Do You Think?

Was the filibuster compromise a sellout?

Judicial nominee Priscilla Owen gets the vote she's been awaiting for more than four years, the most immediate beneficiary of a deal worked out by Senate moderates to avoid a debilitating fight over filibusters. ugh


I'm with Talk Left on this: "All this compromise did was pass the buck to another day, while allowing three extremist judges to be elevated to lifetime appointments on federal appeals courts."

Crooks and Liars has the rundown on views from the right and left.
