I sense a trick of some sort? Unanimous Consent Agreement... A way to get something done without actually having ot VOTE on it..

Is this the compromise Rush was talking about? That will take Brown's nomination off the table?

So does this end the matter, or will we have to go through this same song-and-dance when Rehnquist retires?

If it does not settle the matter, then it is a bad deal for the Republicans.

I just turned it on so I'm not exactly sure what's going on but sounds like typical Dem doublespeak to me......


No, I don't think this has anything to do w/ the Rule option.

Ried is yapping about how the GOP blocked Clinton nominees. Republicans represented the MAJORITY then, as they do now. Ried and leaky-Leahy are trying to justify filibusters on judicial nominees now. They are such "losers".

Reid and Leahy are disgusting liars. Can't watch too long before barfing.

An individual judge here or there is not important. The rule is what is important, here. Any agreement that does not deal with the rule only strengthens the Democrats' hand.

The 'Pubbies in the Senate need to play this game to win, not to tie. A tie is as good as a loss...
