No celebration is worthy the trade of the constitution for a quisling deal with world socialists.

I'm glad she's in.

The battle is still on.

...And the MSM are assuring us that the Democrats are the winners with this "deal."

I can't celebrate that much while "The Deal" is still in place.

Owen was confirmed, yet the Republic still stands? Hmmm, I guess the Libs were wrong again.

We'll see if this holds next month when Rehnquist retires.

Do you think MacCain is going to get smacked in 06?

No, because for some odd reason Arizona GOPers like him.

Nothing was traded. The only thing that has changed since last week is three judges and Bolton will likely be confirmed. The filibuster and nuke option threats still exist.

Gee, I wonder why our Republic hasn't crumbled with the confirmation of this extremist. That's what the Dems and their media allies kept telling us. And if they said so, it must be true! LOL

Owen will serve our nation well her her new capacity.

Why wasn't she confirmed a long time ago?

If the Bush administration wanted to seat her sooner, they could have appointed her while the Senate was in recess. This four-year battle has paid enormous political dividends for the GOP (see 2002 election, 2004 election, and Daschle, Thomas as Exhibits 1 through 3).

As per Foxnews, Reid said that the agreement did not extend to Bolton. Extraordinary cirmumstances?
