Yeah, but the reason the democrats can't filibuster jags like Sessions is because Harry Reid changed the confirmation rules for cabinet secretaries in 2013. Was a bad idea then, and continues to be a bad idea now. The GOP was filibustering almost 100% of stuff at that time, so you could say what choice did he have, but that's a cliff you don't want to fall off of.
