You need to do more research before getting all ticked off- it was the DEMS who changed the rules, the GOP wants to put them BACK as they were for almost 200 years. It never used to require a super majority to pass a judicial nominee through the system- that was a rule change- I believe it was Byrd who pushed it through. A nominee should require only a simple majority (by Constitutional law) and the Dems blocking this process by threatening fillibusters that never occur and whining about rule changing are being dishonest and hypocritical.
