well, if you think about it, a filibuster of a judicial nominee is obviously a distaste for that certain nominee that is strong enough to use such measures in an attempt to maintain a check on the power of one party over another, something that was argued for extensively during the constitutional convention. It seems and feels obvious to me that the minority should have the opportunity to voice and innact this vote of no-confidence in the choice of the executive. It's not like a filibuster is not breakable, its just in this case it is because the nominations are so distastful in the minds and hearts of a group of people that believe giving consent to these persons with the ideals they hold are bad for america. just my $1.50.

I know, I am missing a few commas and possibly some other punctuation above, just don't feel like putting them in.
