If the RINO's side with the Dems then we don't have a Majority, we have a majority in name only. As far as I'm concerned, if they aren't a real majority we'll make them what they really are. A Minority. And we'll start with those that betrayed us.

Well and truly stated.

This debate is going to keep going on the Senate floor for several days. The GOP will allow that so they can say they gave the Dems a full chance to raise all their objections and have lots of debate. In recent weeks, Frist has made offers to allow as much as 100 hours of debate on each nominee. It's fair to guess that the GOP will allow that much debate this time. Don't expect the move to kill the filibuster to come until at least next week.

However, he did play the clip of Reid refusing any Senate business while these "discussions" are going on. So...all together now... The Democrats have shut down Congress

I Heard That too!!

Patty Murray is an absolute simpleton and is a good representative of what has gone horribly wrong with the democrat party.

Hey! Where is Bill Kristol, who I have long believed orchestrated the Jeffords defection? He has been too supportive of the President lately, and when I see McCain and Graham weaseling around, I am wondering if Kristol is up to something!!!

Speaking from the state that just re-elected Patty, I vote Murray.

i dare anyone to prove their senator is more of a mental midget than that woman.

Sen. Richard Durbin (D-Illinois)September 28, 1998: “We should meet our responsibility. I think that responsibility requires us to act in a timely fashion on nominees sent before us. ... Vote the person up or down.”

Just to keep the facts straight.
