What have we lost? The Big Mo ... momentum.
The RINOs have shown that they can defeat their own majority leader and their own president. This will embolden them further in the future. It will be harder than ever to get their votes for the constitutional option, for a controversial nominee, or any other damned thing.
This is an utter disaster.
OK, three nominees might get through now. In the meantime, two others are blocked, there is no meaningful promise whatsoever about the Supreme Court nominations, and no meaningful promise about Bush's future nominees.
Our "moderates" got taken to the cleaners. Or maybe that's not accurate, since they really couldn't care less about the result. They just want everyone to get along. Conservatives on the courts really don't matter to them.
Big yip. 3 WHOLE NOMINEES.
Weren't we up to 5 the other day?
Remind me not to have these idjits negotiate any deals on my behalf.
I bet Reid has 6 RINOs to vote "nay" on Owens and Brown.
I'll have to consider your comments. I just got home from being cube-bound, and have yet to hear, let along digest, what's transpired. Thanks.
