Oh, boo hoo. I remember warning the giggly, tittering liberals on Triple-FART that, one day, the tide would turn and these horrible new rules would be used against Democrats. They didn't seem to much care.

Maybe they'll care now. Enjoy a MISERABLE eight (or more) years, Libtards. If it gets to be too much, you might want to take a trip up to Portland and avail yourself of their new euthanasia law. It's another liberal triumph.

Dem Sen Coons: I ‘Regret’ That We Changed Rules So Filibuster Can’t Be ‘Speed Bump’ on Nominees

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “At This Hour,” Senator Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that he regretted Democratic rule changes regarding filibusters on nominees “because it would have been a terrific speed bump, potential emergency break, to have in our system to slow down the confirmation of extreme nominees.”

Coons said that thanks to rule changes Democrats made, “The filibuster no longer acts as an emergency brake on the nomination –.”

When asked if he regretted that rule change, Coons answered, “I do regret that. I frankly, think many of us will regret that in this Congress, because it would have been a terrific speed bump, potential emergency brake, to have in our system to slow down the confirmation of extreme nominees.”
