Surprisingly phrased article. It clearly says the Democrats are standing in the way, that there are enough votes to confirm the nominee.

The "spin" that there "was a loss on a crucial test vote" is cleared up later on, by saying the GOP expected to lose this one.

The "filibuster" is a sham unless the GOP makes the Rats physically DO a filibuster instead of this "gentlemen's agreement" BS.

""Most nominees deflect questions about their views when they are questioned by the Judiciary Committee, but Mr. Estrada may have been even more reticent and cautious. Democrats have asked the Bush administration to provide legal memorandums he wrote while a Justice Department official.""

"May"?

I can't believe the Democrats are getting by with this trash. They need to be forced to *filibuster.*

Make them sleep deprived, and out will come the truth: they'll block anyone who is against killing human beings who aren't a danger to other human lives.

From my e-mail signature IRL:
"Crack the egg of a bird on the Endangered Species list and you'll find that it doesn't matter that the bird embryo or fetus can't survive outside the egg. You've still broken the Endangered Species Act. "

Perhaps, some day, the penalties will be at least as severe for killing a child as for killing an eagle.

After all, as someone who practices human medicine, I know that elective abortion kills humans. (and so do the pro-aborts.)
