borking saying if he didn't have bad luck he wouldn't have luck at all. that's probably how bulls star derek rose must be feeling after suffering injury for the second time in two years. his recovery could take up to six months. back in may of 2012 rose tore ligaments in his left knee that kept him out of the playoffs that season and all of the following season. through ten games this season rose averaged 16 points, 4 assists and 3 rebound. kobe bryant signed a two year extension worth $48 million. the deal will keep him in person and gold through a 20th nba season as well as he'll remain the league's highest paid player. 35-year-old bryant has yet to play a game so far this year after injuring an achilles tendon in april. warriors an and blazers had plas suspended for one game. now to the nfl where the race for the playoff seems just as crowded today as it was two weeks ago. last night's game between the broncos and the patriots did very little to sort things out. winning the game in overtime 34-31, the win moved the patriots 8 and 3, good enough for the

you remember bork. he wasn't filibustered, he was voted down. people like scalia, everybody says there will be more scalias. he passed unanimously. ruth bader ginsburg passed with just three votes against her, 96-3. so the issue really is advice and consent, not with super majorities. right now we have the tyranny of the minority. that's what we've taken care of. >> this is from mitch mcconnell's office. vast majority of obama nominees confirmed, almost 1600. that's a lot of nominees who have been confirmed. that's what senator mcconnell -- >> you know the chart i would put up here? i would put up the filibusters since the beginning of the country -- >> i will do that for -- >> 50%, 50% of them in four and a half years. four and a half years. >> you can see it's a significant number of nominees have been approved by the senate. >> nominees have been approved but we reached a critical point there. there was blockage and we had to break through and overrule the tyranny of the minority and really, this is going to be good for the country. we are go

it did not seem to work out all that well for judge bork when he was open about absolutely everything.

2016 we elected a republican president, then you would see people, well, you know there was judge borky possibility, john bolton and many others that obviously would only require 51 votes. but more than that, this -- i read on the floor of the senate today a letter that robert berg wrote three months before he died, about the absolute necessity of preserving the rights of the minority and how that was really the essence of the united states senate. i wish every one of my colleagues, particularly the newer ones, remember that over 60% of the members of the senate have in their six years or less, they could have heard his words. >> listen to the words of president obama today in justifies what they did. >> i realize that neither party has been blam liz for these tactics. they have developed over years, and it seems that they tunnelly escalated, but today's pattern of obstruction, it just isn't norm normal. >> is he right? >> well, you know, again i guess it's not where you stand, but where you sit. then senator obama in 2005 said if the right of free and open debate is taken away from th

. >> some judges who say they believe in the original understanding such is most commonly robert bork said the tt the supreme court was right not to apply the states because the 14th amendment wasn't supposed to do that. you show that is wrong and that steamy cup . >> yes, if you wanted to say that he was an 80 euros in credit person and so we shouldn't really pay attention to what he had to say no to that nobody would say that about james madison and say he was just one person so why should we care what he had to say about this or that. so there is no doubt as to what his views were that many of the subjects with respect to the 14th amendment. so unless you want to say that he was sort of someone who ought not be a paid attention to or whose legal skills were somehow inadequate which is something people who don't like the substance of what he wanted to do that happened would say you cannot reach a conclusion like the one you described by a fair reading of the others. >> as you described, he was maligned for much of history come seems dismissive as fuzzyheaded or insignificant. but yo
