Please, do tell me how this is all the fault of the minority party, again. The vast majority of open spots that exist in our government for Senate confirmed positions exist because no nomination has been made.

Quote:The Wall Street Journal slammed Democrats for abusing Senate rules in an attempt to block political appointees from taking their posts.
The Journal, in an editorial posted Tuesday night, noted the Senate is "sitting on 78 nominees who have already been vetted and passed out of committee but can’t get a floor vote."
