No, but you also shouldn't commit suicide either. Take a deep breath and rela-a-a-ax.
Hey Pollyanna,
Nobody is talking suicide here. Some of us are upset because, once again, the usual handful of GOP-at-election-time-only suspects have flown the coop.
You'd think it would possible that with 55 of 100 Senate seats in Republican hands, we might some nominees onto the Senate Floor. That's not an unreasonable assumption, is it?
I mean, it's not like some of these same Senators just ran in an election seven months ago. I vaguely remember the President mentioning something about judges during the campaign. Maybe just once or twice, but I'm sure he didn't bring it up at every single campaign stop. I can see why they wouldn't consider it important to support the President, and that's ok, since his re-election had absolutely nothing to do with judicial appointments. It was, as I recall, all about making sure that the other important work of the House of Lords got done on an amicable basis.
Bottom line: Whether this thing, through some happy coincidence actually ends up working in our favor, that doesn't change the fact that these seven are not conservatives, they didn't do it to win a victory for conservatives, and they agree with Harry Reid et al that the president's nominees really are out of the mainstream. Fortunately, since they are political opportunists, they allowed us to get three nominees to make themselves look like statesmen.
And one more thing. Seeing the old Chicken Little strawman get tossed into the fray everytime we get upset at the latest RINO Lucy-won't-pull-the-football-away-this-time stunt really gets tiresome.
