THE PRESIDENT NAILS THE DEMS!

[Wait4Truth]

Ping for the President's slam on the Dems on Miguel Estrada...weekly radio address!

[Miss Marple]

Thanks for the ping! I just heard a clip of this on Fox and wondered if it had been posted.

Glad to hear that he is keeping the pressure on!

[Wait4Truth]

He shines the light on their total partisanship and reminds them that they didn't always hold their current view of judicial nominees! It was great this morning!

[anncoulteriscool]

The senate republicans need to really play hardball with this similiar to what Rush has suggested maybe grounding any bill that would interest Mrs. Dashele. They need to "shine the light" on this evil.

[Wait4Truth]

They need to "shine the light" on this evil.

Well, they certainly got the green light from President Bush. He also appeared on Telemundo telling Hispanics that Miguel Estrada is a good man and that he was being treated unfairly by some senate democrats. Also, ads are beginning to appear on TV. He seems to be going to the mat for Mr. Estrada. Go, Mr. President!

Another "Axis of Evil" exists, and it is within the Democratic party.

[Dog Gone]

He whacked them. Excellent.

[dfwgator]

24/7 baby!!!!! Never give in. Never. Never. Never.

[Enterprise]

Republicans had said that after the recess, the gloves were going to come off about the Estrada nomination. And to rephrase what President Bush said, in Mel Gibson's words in Braveheart, "I'm going to pick a fight."

[Wait4Truth]

You've got that right! The RATS are totally clintonized and it will be thier ultimate downfall.

[Wait4Truth]

blackie...you dear sweetie...I want some new words from you....LOL!

[Wait4Truth]

He whacked them. Excellent.

He certainly did! And they sure deserve it!

[Wait4Truth]

24/7 baby!!!!! Never give in. Never. Never. Never.

President Bush is not going to give in and his words today prove that.

[deport]

He slammed them but Good...... those commie RATTY RATS....

They are scheduled to take up the nomination again on Monday when they return. But they also have a couple of hours set aside for another item and a vote.... The democrats have been looking for a way to save face, maybe they found it over the break.

[Wait4Truth]

And to rephrase what President Bush said, in Mel Gibson's words in Braveheart, "I'm going to pick a fight."

Yup! He sure is picking a fight and it's a good one. He has made the decision to go to the mat for Estrada...I don't think the RATS expected the fight they are getting from the President and the Republicans.

[Reagan Man]

>>>Yet a handful of Democratic senators, for partisan reasons, are attempting to prevent any vote at all on highly qualified nominees.

The battle lines are drawn.

[Wait4Truth]

The battle lines are drawn.

They sure are. This is going to be fun. IMO, Miguel Estrada will be confirmed. I don't think they want more appearances by the President on the Hispanic channels. Hehehehehe...

[deport]

Standoff!... Eleanor Cliff ..

Going to the mat against Estrada is risky for Democrats. He doesn’t have obvious political baggage, and Republicans are portraying Democratic opposition as anti-Hispanic. The fact that Estrada is Hispanic did give Democrats pause, but with Republicans touting a conservative California judge who is African-American and a woman as a potential Supreme Court nominee, Democrats can’t be choosy. “If we play dead for an Hispanic, how are we going to touch an African-American woman?” asks a Democratic strategist.
