And in his world it is. It certainly is a relief for the chattering classes in Washington and the assorted leeches that feed off the government. The gravy train will keep on rolling, and the pork, privilege and largesse will not be interrupted by a nasty battle over morality and truth.
These fights over principles are so messy, don't you know. They really distract us from the "real" business of government.
You stated it as a Fact rather than just another hysterical opinion.
The Net Result of this is three of the most conservative judges will now be confirmed and nothing else has changed. Frist hasn't made any deals. Getting the next set will be easier and quicker.
A proper headline would be "Democrats Blink, Allow Vote on Conservative Nominees" but that one isn't as hysteria-generating.
Nonsense, the Senators have done what Senators do best, push their problems ahead of them.
I prefer what Senator Grassley called it: "Unilateral Disarmament."
You prefer to see the negative while ignoring the fact that now the damn has broken and the confirmations are going to start rolling in.
Until they stop ... abruptly. Time will tell.
There will be no stop. The RATS have cut the ground out from under their reason for opposition by allowing these hideously "radical" judges to be confirmed. I understand rationality has little to do with them or their braindead followers but the great majority which pays little attention to this will not swallow their nonsense anymore now that we can cut their MSM shills off at the knees and expose their lies.
