It’s about time on the Iraq filibuster. But it’s a very good move. There has been little if any press attention to the fact that senate Republicans are filibustering practically every piece of legislation to come before the senate. But Iraq is the sui generis issue.

The Republicans have every right to filibuster. But it should be clear that that’s what they’re doing.
