On her way out, Babs almost body-checked Libby. I wonder what her monthy "Everready" tab is?
monthy = monthly

but the donk base will force the donk seven to bolt for anyone who bush nominates to the SCOTUS.
Possible, but I think it depends upon which judge is being replaced.... If it's a liberal judge with a conservative then I agree.... But if it's a conservative with a conservative I don't think so.... jmo.

Should I worry these 6th circuit judges are not conservative enough? I have no idea. But I'm sure that they are more conservative than the Dem base would like to see by a long shot.

Here is the score card as of today with Pryor, Griffin and McKeague confirmed:
1. Boyle, Blue slipped by Edwards and renominated
2. Brown, Filibustered but CONFIRMED
3. Estrada, Filibustered and Withdrew
4. Griffin, Blue Slipped by Levin and Stabenow but CONFIRMED
5. Griffith, Filibustered and renominated
6. Haynes, Filibustered and renominated
7. Kavanaugh, Filibustered and renominated
8. Kuhl, Blue Slipped by Boxer and Feinstein and Withdrew
9. McKeague, Blue Slipped by Levin and Stabenow CONFIRMED
10. Meyers, Filibustered and pending
11. Neilson, Blue Slipped by Levin and Stabenow and renominated
12. Owen, Filibustered but CONFIRMED
13. Pickering, Filibustered and recess appointed which expired in Jan 2005
14. Pryor, Filibustered but CONFIRMED
15. Saad, Blue Slipped by Levin and Stabenow and renominated
We are one-third of the way done. Don't fall for the 10 story and forget Estrada etal. I sure hope Bush renominates him.

13. What a great fricking deal
We get to keep the filibuster as long as we don't use it. In the meantime, nazi's like Brown, Owen and Pryor have lifetime appointments to the court of appeals. And you can bet that one of these kooks will be nominated for the supreme court in 2-3 years. Hey Ben Nelson, this was really a great deal -- thanks a lot for the kick in balls.
17. Its wonderful to have the filibuster and be unable to use it!
So, uh, what's the political advantage when they use the nuclear option to put on a supreme court neocon, as opposed to a circuit court one?
