F*** Reid, minion of Satan, Dammocrap piece of sh!t.
Man, if Frist has this much problem with appeals court nominees, he is going to be totally out of his league when the time comes for the Supremes!!!
Maybe it's time to find a new Senate Majority Leader? hmmmmmm...
NO more compromise judges. Some of the worst judges on the courts are compromise judges. Worse even than the Democrats' choice. David Souter was a compromise judge. The biggest trouble maker of them all, Earl Warren, was Eisenhower's compromise.
To give him credit, Bush refused to compromise in his first term. No compromise now.
I do not like the looks of this at all. If Friest compromisses it will be a sad day indeed for the GOP and one they will live to regret. I find it hard to believe that Bush would go along with this. I notice that as soon as Frist indicated the GOP was going ahead with changing the rules Reid called for a compromise. I am sure Custer would have liked to compromise with the Indians as well when he found out he was going to get killed..
Frist will roll over again. He remains a gutless wonder.
Sucker deal. Rude Rats offering to "compromise" re: their wrongly assertion of a power they were not given by the voters, just to establish the principle so they can rage on all summer long about W's Supreme Court nominee. They need to be slapped down hard.
Two......TWO!
Ain't enough.
All seven.
If Frist compromises, at all, he's politcally finished in the GOP.
I sure hope he knows this.
Great googly moogly!!! That is an idiotic idea that would sacrifice every future conservative nominee by President Bush.
WHY are the Repubs compromising with the Rats? Isn't it time they acted like they had a pair?
Bend Over Here It Comes Again
I'm beginning to think the whole damn government is a socialist/communist blockade and were just being sickled and hammered into place
Lucy: "Sure, Charlie Brown, I PROMISE I won't pull the football away when you try to kick it...."
Don't fall for it, Frist. You got them to blink. Didn't another RAT senator suggest as a compromise a time limit for the committee to act and then the candidate would automatically be up for a floor vote? If you are going to make a deal, that's the one to hold out for.
If, when the nominees came to the Senate floor, and the DemocRATs said that they were too extreme, why would the DemocRATs now allow some of those "too extreme" judges to be confirmed?
The DemocRATs know that they are losing this fight, and Frist and the Republicans should hold fast. No compromise. It's a win-win position.
Frist BETTER NOT fall for any Reid "compromise" unless he wants a complete defunding of the NRSC. Show a spine Bill, or go back to the medical field.
"I've always said that we'd make sure the Senate went forward, but we're going to do it on our agenda, not their agenda," Reid said.
Since when does the party that's out of power in the legislative branch and the executive branch set the agenda. Are these people as delusional as they sound?

Reportedly Frist has presidential aspirations. Unless he is planning on running in the Democrat primary he needs to tell Reid to go to hell.
