Compromise???
Fox news alert, according to shep smith there is a 730pm PC to announce some kind of Filibuster Compromise
Too many 24 fans complained?
Betrayed again!
Yeah? What's the compromise between abusing the rules and playing by them? Only abusing them when you're really, really, really upset?
To paraphrase Ronald Reagan, here's my compromise: We win, they lose.
A compromise is a republican sell out.
You just know that ratbas*ard John McCain has his
hand in this.
Bad news for the repubs, and all of us.
This "compromise" had better not mean continued filibustering in the future. What I'm hoping is that the Dems realized they would lose if they attempted to filibuster Owen and, having realized this, decided looking (late last week) for a way to be able to say they "reached compromise" rather than "got horsewhipped."
This sounds ominous.
In another eight minutes, I'll learn whether I'll ever give another dime to the Republican Party.
FNC saiys that Dewine is going to make announcement soon of compromise to end nuclear option, HOPE it is up and down vote on all nominees...
straw,camel.
Ben Nelson just said there was a deal...
NO!!!
I can't believe it! All this time we have been saying no compromise! I will definitely be tuning in!
I am watching this very closely and praying very hard.
Maybe the "compromise" is that they will let Owen get approved, and then filibuster then next nominee.
The dems win again?
