Ted, you're acting like this "Party of NO" meme is new.

It is new. Its been new ever since the Dems got a majority in the House and Senate......and its gotten worse when Obama got elected.

It's not. The Democrats used to be the "Party of NO" for years.

That's right. Bush wanted to invade Iraq and the Dems said no. Oh wait...........

One of many examples is how they stonewalled Bush's judicial appointees.

You are so out of it. The stonewalling the Dems did with Bush's appointees was child play compared to what the Rs are doing:

Obama Judicial Appointees BLOCKED By GOP: President Getting Fewer Nominees Confirmed Than Nixon

A determined Republican stall campaign in the Senate has sidetracked so many of the men and women nominated by President Barack Obama for judgeships that he has put fewer people on the bench than any president since Richard Nixon at a similar point in his first term 40 years ago.

The delaying tactics have proved so successful, despite the Democrats' substantial Senate majority, that fewer than half of Obama's nominees have been confirmed and 102 out of 854 judgeships are vacant.

Forty-seven of those vacancies have been labeled emergencies by the judiciary because of heavy caseloads.
