You've heard, I assume, that the Republicans have forced the Democrats to engage in an active filibuster of Bush's judicial nominees, rather than the passive filibuster they've been getting away with. Amidst the coverage:As Frist spoke on the floor, Sen. Tom Harkin (D-Iowa) walked into the chamber with a sign that said: "I'll be home watching 'The Bachelor'," which elicited snickers from the press gallery. If this filibuster accomplishes nothing else, at least we've learned that Tom Harkin watches The Bachelor.
