FReepers be prepared for surprises today.

You're the third person to interpret noting what has actually been said as opposed to mere theorizing what he might mean as "trust".
I'm reporting what he said.
I don't think you'll find where I said I trust him.
However, in these discussions I think it's helpful to know what the record is in order to make informed speculation of how things will unfold.
I think mccain will come out as 3rd party candidate. I don't see the RNC supporting him at all.
He will be the Ross Perot of '08 and the demos will reward him with Secretary of Something.
Not yet. But the battle is still on. We don't win until the Senate restores the practice of voting on nominees, and where a minority can't stifle that process.
And if it looks like I'm going to lose, I'll come back to you, and we can discuss a compromise deal. =)
Planned, yes. The outcome....is always a roll of the dice.
What they say now has zero bearing on what they do in the future.
And you know this how? Have they taken a poll already on it? Something i haven't heard about? You may or may not be right about Frist but you are wrong about McCain. He is not a conservative, zealot or otherwise. This is the man that stuck by John Kerry and went against his fellow viet vets. That told me all I need to know about the guy. what he did during the war has long since passed and doesn't mean he is the same man today. I don't trust him.
Also I think we are not dead on this issue yet. However, I agree with you on the leadership part of Frist, he should have forced this issue long ago and not given the Dems a chance to circle the wagons. IMO
Tom Carper: "Do I think this agreement will last forever? No."
ROFLMPO! Could even be DOA by noon!
Well then, we agree.
I'll wait for Rush at noon to help me decipher all this. I trust his instincts.
R.I. Senator's name must be mispelled.....transpose the R and A.
and that roll, now resides down the road a piece, in the interim Brown,Owen,Pryor should be ascnding the Appelate courts.
Yep.
I see that now. Wow! And he/she chose me to impart his/her great wisdom upon! Too bad the post had nothing to do with anything I've said! LOL
Oh, come on. I guarantee you he knows far more than we do.
A fight like this is like an iceberg. 99% of what is happening is under the surface.
And politically, the President has submarines...if you know what I mean...
He knows damned well what is actually happening in the Senate.
The real question is, does he have a clue what this is doing to the Republican Party base. Read a certain way, his 'let's move along' comment could possibly suggest a certain amount of misunderstanding of that...

AQ says Zarquawi wounded; urging "faithful" to pray
I am going to be blunt, and I hope the moderators will understand.
For those of you kool-aid drinkers trying to but a brave face on this; If I didn't get RAPED last night by the Republican Senate, then why this morning does my ass hurt?!?
I don't care if Liberals are angry too; I don't care if we are getting the best 3 judges out of this deal; I don't care about anything accept that the Republican Senate has had months to give the President his rightful votes on his nominees, and this morning the Senate is patting itself on the back while Rome is burning.
Dammit, wake up.
Ooooh. You're one bad mommie.:-)
