"Telling them to behave and act adult is "trashing them"?"
No, if that is what you posted, I would agree that is not trashing them.
But the words you posted were these.
" Whining, crying, stomping your feet and holding your breath till you turn blue is not only childish, but it makes Republicans look bad. It makes them look like Democrats"
I don't know about you but anytime you indicate that someone is looking "like Democrats". Your trashing them.
OK..OK... I have to admit, telling someone they are acting like Democrats is a pretty harsh thing to do.
But then, if someone was waddling around quacking, would it be trashing them to say they walk like a duck and quack like a duck?
I have to tellya, the hypocrisy of attacking Bush for selecting Miers... and suggesting that the Republicans in the Senate should do anything but confirm... is EXACTLY 100% consistent with the crappola that comes from the Democrats.
If we are going to tell the Democrats that the Senate should "advise and consent, not select", we can not tell the president who to select for his nomination.. we just can't do it. Its hypocritical.

Not sure we can agree there, but we are getting closer.
I have never heard a large amount of DemonRats complain about anything that their leader has done. They are all in lock step behind the party 100%. Clinton getting a Lewinsky was fine with them and they attacked everyone who thought differently.
So the comparison of Democrats reaction to a group that does not toe the party line and the Republican reaction to Conservatives when we disagree with the President is a more consistent comparison.
That being said, my posts are not meant to trash anyone or support any trashing of anyone. I believe that the President can do anything he wants with his power to nominate the next SCJ. My turn to have a say in that process will come in 08 because both of my Senators are safe in 06. That gives me plenty of time to determine if he made the correct choice.
