Good morning all. Senate convenes at 9:30 am this morning, to vote on the nomination of Priscilla Owen. I've started the thread early, as I have to leave for a few hours, but also to give us a place to start commenting early on the events of yesterday....

I am thoroughly disgusted about this non-deal though. And the Senate Republicans.

Which is a shame, because your disgust really should be aimed at the cause of the problem - the Dems.

And people wonder why the Democrats try all this hypocritical, juvenile nonsense. Because they know that eventually conservatives will start blaming Republicans for the problem.

"There is absolutely zero upside for her to vote for any of these judicial nominees."

I disagree. What is Emily's List and NARAL going to do? Pull her 527 funding? Without Hillary these organizations are dead. She can do whatever she wants. So voting for it with a wink and a nod to the lefties is good for business. She comes off as a moderate, which is the only way she has a shot.

"Feingold is scared. He just said he was worried that "Frist will not abide by the agreement" and deploy the Nuke.

"Well, Duh, Feingold. Frist is not the a party to the agreement..."


And as I said in Post202:
Frist must keep everything as obscure as possible to keep these flakes under control. None of the Demodogs want to test this "filibuster" of judges again. They will be completely killed - and they are starting to realize that they have the rug completely torn out from under them.

This is gonna be great!

I'm almost starting to believe that Frist had a plan for this all along.

"AH HA!! I see the problem. McTraitor is wearing a blue tie. Just like always voting with the RATs, while the VP is wearing a red tie."

Now you have done it. The ACLU will be all over Dick Cheney for Tie Color profiling in the senator. He only used the Nuclear Suppository with Rinos wearing blue ties.

No. Some morning business. Owen vote at noon.

Reid is getting antsy because he is afraid that after Owen and Bolton, Frist might spring a surprise on him.
