"When we think judicial decisions are outside mainstream American values, we will say so," he said. "But we must also be clear that the balance of power among all three branches requires respect - not retaliation. I won't go along with that."

This guy Frist scares me sometimes.
Judical activism does not call for "retaliation" - - it calls for impeachment.

Does he "go along with that"?

***......In his speech, Mr. Frist addressed the concerns expressed by some in his party about suspending the filibuster.
"Now some Republicans -- even some conservatives -- don't think we should press the issue on requiring votes on judicial nominees," he said. "They're concerned that in the future Republicans won't be able to use this same device to obstruct Democratic nominees. Well, that may be true, but if what Democrats are doing is wrong today, it won't be right for Republicans to do the same thing tomorrow." ...........***
