LOL! If Reid's so happy, why are judicial nominees the Democrats loathe going to be elevated to the federal appeals bench? Again, if the Democrats had the votes to defeat the constitutional option, they wouldn't have made a deal. They lost. Dingy Harry can spin it all he wants but the Democrats just got beaten again by President Bush!

What have you been smoking? The filthy dems won. We have been sold out! Read the text! In exchange for 3 judges, the dems got a promise of no rules change and no limit on who can be filibustered. The USSC nominees are subject to the dems displeasure and there is a committment to "negotiate" before nomination.

The dems can block without worry and we still have problems for the future. We got NOTHING! Frist folded and so did his pansy leadership.

Watch what happens with W's next 10 nominees. The Judiciary Committee will reject the names until there is a "certifcation" that the have passed the "consultation" aspect of this memo.

BS, the RINO's agreed not to vote for the Constitutional option when the Rats fillibuster.

They will fillibuster any decent SC nominee Bush sends up and the RINO's will let them getting away with Borking anyone who will uphold the ocnstitution.

Someone may rationalize that they have won the battle (and that is disputable) but they just lost the war.

This sucks.

Reid won and the republicans lost. How could it not be clearer. During this congress we will be fighting over supreme court nominees with 40 democrats holding total veto power. If you can't see that now, you will before the end of the year. Those seven rinos sold out the supreme court and turned it over to the ACLU.
