The rest of you melodramatic-tunnel-visioned-missing-the-BIG-picture pseudo-cons need to get some perspective here.

No, the ones missing the big picture are the ones who can't see past the next election. They're the ones who can't understand that a temporary setback can sometimes be the price for what it takes to avert a major disaster down the road.

Two or more non-constructionists appointed to the Supreme Court aren't a temporary setback, you transparent fakejob.

Having our Republic destroyed by leftist traitors is NOT a 'temporary setback.'

And EVERY conservative on this forum knows that. Those who claim it would be good for the country........long or short term.........to have traitors at the helm, don't care about the country. Period.

With the way this country is divided we are always one election cycle away from disaster. There is no BIG PICTURE other than doing all in our power not to allow this nation to come under democrat rule. This is not a damned game.

Gak! That tactic was already tried, and all we got for it was eight years of Bill Clinton and being stuck with the mess that was created.

And you want it done all over again?

Besides, given the history of the measures that the Dems have taken to get and maintain power, my fear is that, far from averting a disaster down the road, your "temporary" setback will usher in an even greater one.

"...a temporary setback is the price you pay..." We are in another life or death fight for Civilization, and you suggest Our Country put on further shackles, as a remedy towards Victory over Our enemies. I truly hope, that you are simply unaware of current reality.

Pay your own damn price somewhere else; and there will be NO down the road.

How many times and ways is there to say that

If the DNC gets control of this government again, they are going to DISMANTLE the ELECTORAL COLLEGE and you won't get a CHANCE to rectify your ignorant stance.

This is ALL you need to know:

Nancy Pelosi - Speaker of the House

Harry Reid -- Majority Leader

Robert Byrd -- Appropriations

Carl Levin -- Armed Services

Joe Biden - Foreign Relations

Ted Kennedy - Health, Education, Labor & Pensions

Joe Liebermann - Homeland Security

Patrick Leahy - Judiciary

Chris Dodd -- Rules and Administration

---

Tom Lantos - International Relations

John Conyers - Judiciary

Charles Rangel - Ways & Means

Jane Harman - Intelligence

Barney Frank - Financial Services

Henry Waxman - Government Reform

Plain and simple, you're a damn fool if you do ANYTHING that puts ANY of those people back in power.

Understand this: we can't afford to create a deliberate setback in time of war. It's a gamble at the best of times.

Our Vietnam troops were savaged by enemies at home - we MUST not let this happen again
