Griffiths and the Deal

     Weeks ago, to stop the filibuster shenanigans, 14 Senators cut a deal.  Of the seven remaining Judges who were being blocked, three were not blocked (W Pryor, JR Brown and P Owens).  Two Judges were specifically agreed to be blocked.

     One of those Federal Bench nominees, TB Griffiths, is on the Senate floor now.  Senator O Hatch foolishly reminded the audience that he was, in fact, Chief Legal Counsel for the impeachment of President WJ Clinton.
