The US Senate has confirmed 168 of BushCo's nominations to the federal bench. The Democrats have use the filibuster to stop the 4 most extreme nominations.

Remember, these are lifetime appointments. That's a lot of power to put in the hands of an extremist.

The Republicans are trying to force the nominations through by holding marathon sessions. If there's ever a point at which there are no Democrats in the room, they'll call for a voice vote without objection. (Remember, that's how the $87B got approved for Iraq. In that case, the Democrats agreed not to call for a quorum check, and it passed with 6 Senators in the room).

Tell the Democrats to stay up late and stop the extremist judges. Sign the Petition For American Values.
