Once again, the GOP has proven that it DOES NOT know how to govern. This DEAL scuttles some of the President's nominees and it gives the Dems carte blanche whenever "extraordinary" circumstances warrant. It is a total defeat for the GOP.
The GOP deserves whatever bad fate befalls it. Frist won't get the monination as a result of accepting this betrayal--and he doesn't deserve it. The good news is that this also queers the deal for McCain. He will NEVER be forgiven by the GOP Primary electorate for his collaboration with the Socialists.
Defeat grabbed from the jaws of victory. Only the GOP is capable of such a feat.
Until then we are getting all but two of our judges confirmed.
We have some RHINIO's to take out in the primaries (so be it). But stop wetting your pants and cowboy up!
