I'll bet the deal is to preserve the right to filibuster...so they will allow the 10 thru.

they threw 5 over the side.

They sat around on their hands last month and let the rats starve a woman to death in a way unfit for a dog.

I can definitely believe it.

I don't need no steenken news conference to tell me what is coming.

Bend over and lube up, we are about to be hosed again by the gutless surrender monkey RINOs we elected.

I say, I say, a pox on all their houses.

"We get what we want and no fallout."

Wrong. Utterly wrong.

Why in God's name do you think the Rats would keep their word?

There is no such thing as a compromise with the dims. If you give these slobs an inch, they will steal a mile!

This is no way is going to be good.

I'm confused on why this has so many folks calling for heads to roll.

I'm confused because I don't know what the details of the deal are. Care to elaborate, if you have the information?

they said someone from Frist's office confirmed there is a deal, but did not have any quotes from the Senator himself yet that I have hard.

I'm on pins and needles.

'cause the Demagogues still want to get the maximum political mileage out of the whole situation..... they won't stop demagoguing the issue just because the milquetoasts might have reached a compromise.

Watch the media spin it! They'll say the Republicans backed down on an illegal move or some such nonsense. The media always covers the dirty dealing dems back sides.

Senator Don Nichols should have been Senate Majority Leader.
This never, ever would have happened on his watch.

"saving for another day ..."

Famous last words. The rationalizations of cowards.
That's what we'll probably hear, though.

Are we blaming the wrong person here? Could this happen without the White House signing off on it?

You can not have foxes in our Republican henhouse! McCain is a cancer...along with his RHINO buddies!
