While I'm VERY UPSET that this won't happen this week,
I think that this is only postponed.
Let's hope Republicans use the Constitutional option on June 27 when probably Rehnquist resigns and libDems filibuster Supreme Court nominees.
In the meantime we will have good nominees in the circuit courts, like Judge Brown. I see her as a judicial nominee for the Supreme Court.
Frist was disappointed and Reid was thrilled which is a bad sign for the moment, but we need to keep bugging the RINOs until June 27. We simply cannot give up. This is too important.
"We simply cannot give up. This is too important."
You have a good heart and you are right.
Its funny how easy it is to whine and see things as so difficult. Yet, just a few days ago I read an article about a guy in one of those little Arab countries. They started to loosen up their monarchy, so he started becoming outspoken. Then the monarch got scared and he ended up in jail. Recently, there was a thaw, this guy got released, and immediately became active in pushing for freedom.
We are so fortunate.
Free Republic itself is an amazing thing. However, it (and all Internet free speech) is also under direct attack via the attempt to extend McCain/Feingold to the Internet. This is one of my biggest concerns personally, that they would be able to shut all this great stuff down.
