If there is no difference then lets go with the one that offers the most profit. We have a chance to win them all with the constitutional option. Heck the filibuster has never been used for anything good, why keep it around anyway?

Okay, you want to go with the one with the most profit. I want to go with the one with the most profit. So does 48 R senators.

The problem is that there are 55 senators who don't. It is that coalition that is the the majority. They've got the MSM support, they apparently can get elected -- they've got the power.

We don't. It's reality time.

So instead we get, what seven judges.

So do I.

I say this agreement gives us the most profit.

We get the votes on all except perhaps two judges.

We also get other legislation passed the Dims could have bottled up had we not given them this false victory.

I really don't care about THESE judges, I am looking towards the Supreme Court appointment. Get rid of the Filibuster now and then start twisting arms. Don't wait till the last second. Smoke out the traitors. Without the Filibuster we need 51 votes. Thus - Nuke em.

If we don't get the 51 votes, get a new Senate Leader and try again. This time get the President involved 100 percent. Put social security on the back burner and bring out the White House Flamethrower.

This agreement/capitulation just gives the dems legitimacy when the start screaming about the next appointments.

Instead of concentrating on denouncing judicial filibusters, focus on denouncing the filibuster in general as one of the most anti-democratic things .
