The filibuster rule needs to be removed.

The Tea Party (strict constitutionalists) should be demanding it.

A law requires 50% +1 in each house plus the President's signature or 2/3rd in each house without the President's signature.

A Presidential Appointment requires 50% of the Senate +1. What is happening now is not what the framer's intended. Plain and simple.
