The ModSquad (RINOS and mod (right) dems), were very careful to word 'extraodinary circumstances' when they mean extremists...They can't say future nominees are extremists because they let these three up for a vote.

Are they actually moving toward a vote on a nominee or are they all still playing patty-cake?

Damn Rinos let Reid take the high road. He just said that there will still be filibusters of judicial nominees.

"ALL filibusters are extraordinary" - Harry Reid, one day after the "agreement".

Are you listening to Reid getting scared. He thought the nuclear option was off the table. It's not.
They can't help themselves. These seven RINOS had the cajones to think they were bigger than the rest of the Republicans.

The cloture vote on the Owen nomination was filed Thursday and I think it will be voted on around noon today.

Swollen but I think it may not be broken just jammed. Thanks for asking! I hope Frist sticks to his guns! I hope you are right!

Frist thinks we can get to a vote on Owens tomorrow.

Frist says the nuclear option is still on the table.

Reid says the nuclear option is gone.

Well said, Mr. Peach. See Harry squirm. See Harry sweat.
Like Frist said, the seven didn't represent him in no uncertain terms.

The Rinos may have thought they were bigger than the Republican party but it's the party that dishes out the checks.
