Beyond all that utter psychobabble, there is no excuse for denying each one a simple up-or-down vote. There shouldn't be any need for fricken arm twisting by the President or Republicans in the Senate. Each of the nominees have earned the street credentials and endorsements to be given the jobs they were nominated for. What the Democrats have engaged in, is pure BS.

Clueless, you're just clueless and still angry that what I said about Keyes' ultimate vote tally was correct; though a bit high.

I think that Laura Ingraham put it best tonight.

She usually does.

Her and Kylie Minogue...two gals I like..for oddly different reasons.

Prayers for both.

a while back. It's been a common occurance when they are out-debated. Cheap, ignorant shot at someone who's way beyond their pay grade.

McCaine will NEVER learn that lesson and the "compromise" took the nuclear option off the table for two years.

BTTT. Up or down votes for all. Elections are SUPPOSED to have consequences!

Each individual senator is supposed to vote "his/her conscience." Remember that old line? LOL.

"You've been here long enough to know that that IS a posting rule"

Show it to me in writing. Where in any list of rules does it state that? Cough up the written proof please.

I will go search. It's NEVER too late for me to "complain." Of course, MAYBE that poster will raise his or her hand and save me the search? Nah, too cowardly I reckon.

Oh puleeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeze! Have you completely and utterly forgotten to whom you are speaking to? That's palpably ridiculous and one of THE most hysterically preposterous things ever said about, EVER; here or in real life.

Bwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Oh absolutely. Those were the talking points of the Democrats when they were trying to get Clinton's incompetant judges passed. Schumer, Dorgan, and Uncle Ted had the gall to mention "Judge George Greer" among the list of Clinton nominees who were voted down.

Sure he will. He's too busy right now trying to decide when to jump parties.

He is running for POTUS, and he knows he'll not get the GOP nod. His health is the only factor that could derail his plans to run.

Maybe I have. You seem to be off the reservation as of late.

I just had to "vote my conscience" -- yeah right, but "senator, you don't have one."

I'm serious. Let me locate that posting, and watch me lodge a complaint.

"It is an unwritten rule on FR, that YOU ping the person you are talking about."

Oh, so now it's an unwritten rule. Which is it, a written rule or not? No proof for it?

"And unlike you, I can also "take it"; which you are incapable of doing."

You don't know me from an adam's apple, thank goodness. I can smell a know-it-all a mile away, and you qualify. And a negative know-it-all to boot. Best to not engage you, as I've seen one too many of your unpleasant posts for my tastes. Your posts are too often depressing.
