You know, I am pretty damned conservative and I find it amazing that people who claim to be conservative are so outraged at the so-called Gang of Fourteen. The fact is that the GOF prevented the partisan whack-jobs on both sides of the aisle from taking the Senate’s judicial confirmation process and driving it off the court fight cliff. As a conservative, I would almost always prefer a compromise that preserves the known status quo over a litigation option about which nobody, and I mean nobody, could predict the outcome. Preserving the known status quo is a large by God part of what being conservative is supposed to be about.

Geez. Can we please get some adults involved here?
