Advise and consent has to have been one of the dumbest ideas the Framers ever had. Imagine staring a business, selecting your management team, then asking every other company (including competitors) to approve your selection.

The amazing part is not that the government operates poorly, it is that it operates at all.

And according to Senate rules one individual senator can put an anonymous hold on any candidate. We the people my arse.
