From article:
. " As political scandals go, the case of the U.S. Senate Democrat memos is differcult to assess throughly, for the moment. The evidence is currently under lock and key by the Senate Sergeant-at-Arms.
. That evidence consists of some three to four THOUSAND MEMOS from or to DEMOCRAT MEMBERS of the SENATE JUDICIARY Committee, believed to DETAIL COLLUSION between Democrats and LEFTIST GROUPS to BLOCK confirmation of many of President Bush's judicial Nomonees."
see in article:
@ Miguel Estrada
@ Racist remarks in memos concerning Mr. Estrada's " Latino " backround " , made by a "minority staff member" herself.
@ TED KENNEDY'S involvement and his staff!
@ Media/press RUSH to cover-up/ over story.
@ Kennedy shifts BLAME from not ARE the MEMOS of a Scandalous Plot by democrats....but rather (no relation), but rather turning table by ACCUSSING REPUBLICANS of " LEAKING" the FOUND memos.

Just a simple correction: It is 'HORDE" not "Hoard."
Or perhaps HORRID?
"Or perhaps HORRID?"
Nope. That only applies to the original post, which is unreadable, and makes no sense.

The reason the MSM isn't running with this is because of how the memos were 'discovered'. A republican staffer who had access to the Senate computer records system found that the Dems left their documents unprotected by password. He qucikly downloaded a lot of these Dem documents which showed the Dems on the Judiciary committee were colluding with their special interest base. When the Dems discovered their Documents were 'stolen' they had the guy investigated and threatened legal action against him. The republicans won't run with this because they know the Dems will claim 'dirty tricks', the media won't run with it because Iam not sure they have copies of documents. This is an old story which would be awesome if people cared about who gets appointed as judges. Unfortunately, our electorate fails to give the judiciary appointment potential of presidents the importance it deserves. Sad but true....
Memogate ~~~PING~~~
Key Dems in Congress caught with their pants down?
There is no doubt that these memos contain some info that is daming for the dems. But, it also taints a couple of Republicans, probably Sphincter and a couple of other of our lefties.
Can't you imagine Schumer, Leahy or Harkin leaving a slime trail while sidlleing up to Frist first, to demand the memos back (like they'd give them back if they found the good guys' documents) and then to threaten to release the dirt on the good guys and then threaten all the usual dem crap and negativity (as though the crapweasels know anything else) if they are released.
Frist is a coward. He is yellow and simply can't play hard ball. Frist should know that if he harbors any interest in gigher office for himself, some of us will remember his prissy handling of these documents!
Your link was broken. Here's a good link:

(You had _ instead of / between legislative_issues and federal_issues)
FReegards
Don't tell Barney Frank!
Here's one. Sending people from other states to register to vote in Fla and Ohio.
Maybe FRist needs to be FReeped! This is another one of those things that stinks to high heaven and then gets buried for the love of politics. I am sick of it!
In regards to Democrats, isn't it 'Whored'?
Thanks .. now I have to wash my brain out with that visual
3-4 thousand memo's huh ?? ... hmmmmm
I don't really think party loyalists banning together to block nominees is a "scandal." We'd do it too against liberal judges.
It's just a sign of the political times, where the voters and the government are equally divided.
This does not a rosy picture paint!!
