That is a lie. What do you think the RATS won here other than the right to vote No?

In the first place, I did not lie but merely gave an opinion. You should be more careful in your choice of words, assuming that you possess enough from which to choose ones that fit.

Second, my Republican Party abandoned its majority power as well as a 200 hundred year old precedent to "save" what never was. As much as some would like to proclaim victory, this "compromise" by any name is still an unnecessary defeat. McCain and Graham now have some revenge for the South Carolina GOP primary debacle. That and a few "attaboys" from the media were sufficient reward for selling out. And that's no lie.

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.
