The agreement was for judicial fillibusters - this isn't a judicial appointment.

Three days to go back on their word.

Man, this is a record, even by backstabbing Democratic standards.

Two words of advice for all Republican statesmen:

NUKE 'EM!

"So, is it a real filibuster?...didn't think so."

Yes, Virginia, there is a "real" filibuster!

Now we'll see if Frist is a man of his word.

If they actually use the nuclear option in the Senate I will be checking for sunrise in the West the next morning.

Sorry, but the Nuclear Option only deals with judicial nominations. Frist never promised to eliminate filibusters on any other issues or nominations.

I've said it before and I'll say it again:

The Republican Party is OFF my donation list until and unless they begin to grow spines and other unmentionable male body parts.

Hey, Repubs - YOU FREAKIN' WON!!!

ACT LIKE IT.

NUKE THE BASTARDS TOMORROW.
