GOP to combat Schumer nominee-stall with a public shaming
By Susan Crabtree (@susancrabtree) • 1/4/17 12:01 AM

Senate Republicans have launched a public shaming campaign to try to shift public opinion against Democrats' threats to stall action on eight of Donald Trump's Cabinet nominees until March.

Democrats, led by new Minority Leader Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., have repeatedly warned that they will drag out confirmation votes with a series of procedural tactics. They say they have no qualms delaying the Trump nominees if they feel they don't receive adequate background information and financial records and don't have enough time to review them.

A "public shaming campaign" sounds like something a bunch of leftist hipsters would do to protest cuts in arts funding.  Democrats are still re-fighting the election on a daily basis -- what numbskull believes they'll be influenced by public shaming from Republicans?

Senators need to sack up and amend some of the rules that do nothing but permit delays.  But they won't do that because they're too self-important.
