Didn't know that, thats good...
Yep, Ol' Dirty Harry "nuked" the filibuster except for SCUTUS appointees( of which there were none at the time). for all Presidential nominee's...in order to pack the courts with obama scum.
This is still in effect, all judges(except for SCOTUS) , cabinet and any other nominee are not subject to 60 votes.
Funny is.. when they thought the Shrew would win, and they would win the Senate.. Dirty Harry promised to Nuke the filibuster for SCOTUS too.
