Obstructing More than Judges

Larry Kudlow explains that the Democratic obstructionist strategy is more than just judges.

After blocking the judicial nominees, the Democrats will attempt to obstruct all pro-growth, pro-business legislation that makes it to the Senate. On the energy bill, they could attempt to filibuster any legislated drilling in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge (ANWR). They could hold up the budget because they don’t want to extend the president’s tax cuts on capital gains and dividends. If a good asbestos bill comes around, they could obstruct that too. CAFTA and other free-trade opening measures could also be stopped.

It’s already more than judges. Democratic Sen. Max Baucus has a hold on all Treasury Department nominations, including one deputy secretary, two undersecretaries, and three assistant secretaries...

...Why do you think John Bolton is having such a tough time being affirmed for the U.N.? Judges, Treasury, Bolton — they’re all linked.

All the more reason to end obstructionism as soon as possible with the "constitutional option."
