Daschle: Move Dem nominees (to stall Bush’s judicial picks unless 12 RATs are appointed)

The Hill ^ | 3/23/04 | Geoff Earle

[Libloather]

“There has to be a reciprocal treatment of nominees...”

Since when?

[Just mythoughts]

Obviously Hatch and Spector agree with the lying crooked liberals.

[rrrod]

have no fear....republicans will cave in..frist aka "monica lewinsky" has taken a stand since he got the job!

[C210N]

This is the same threat we hear from the Palistinians: If you kill our leaders then we will send suicide bombers into your pizza parlors and onto your busses.

[as if that's not already going on]

[Diogenesis]

Her Royal Highness:"Time to contol the Congress.
Fetch me our stolen FBI files. I mean our stolen FBI 'badges of honor'""

[Coop]

“There has to be a reciprocal treatment of nominees,” Daschle said

Sounds to me like there is, Tommy. So where have you been hiding, Mr. Daschle? Decided to poke your head out on the national scene again, and see if your numbers in S. Dakota go south?

[ISonnet]

Tell Daschle, "No thanks. I like you better when I can show you to be the lying obstructionist weasel that you are. I wouldn't want you to compromise your principles in an election year.

As a bonus, we'll even spend our money making sure your constituents know who to thank for the gridlock, Mr. Booster Seat."

[Puppage]

“It will be very, very difficult for us to move forward on nominations in the future if the matter isn’t resolved.”

i.e. If we don't get our lying, crybaby way. These people DISGUST me.

[anniegetyourgun]

Tommy is in no position to try "negotiating" his way out of this.

[Judith Anne]

I'd like to see FReepers contact Bill Frist and tell him that he'd better get busy and do some heavy lifting for the president's judicial nominees.

I'd like to see Frist do a little less politicking behind closed doors, get out there and start raising a little hell
IN PUBLIC about the Daschle obstruction.

Here's his fax and phone numbers: fax (202-228-1264) or telephone (202-224-3344) from his website: http://frist.senate.gov/

Let's all take a minute to politely PUSH this fellow into doing what he was HIRED to do: Represent MAJORITY interests.

[sgtbono2002]

Woulkdnt it be great to read a story in the morning paper which said that Frist told Daschle to go have sex with himself.

[Mo1]

“There has to be a reciprocal treatment of nominees,” Daschle said in a brief floor statement last week. “It will be very, very difficult for us to move forward on nominations in the future if the matter isn’t resolved.”

Oh Please .. give me a break

Hey Tommy we all know you are not a man of your word and will block them even if there is a compromise is made

[correctthought]

Time to donate to the Thune campaign.

[anniegetyourgun]

I'm dreaming of a headline in S.D. papers on 11/3 about Tom Thumbs defeat at the ballot box!

[CROSSHIGHWAYMAN]

Senate Minority Leader Tom Daschle (D-S.D.) is threatening to stall President Bush’s judicial nominees if the president does not take action soon to appoint more than a dozen Democrats to government boards and commissions.

Another lying Rat trap.

This souless little troll has to go!

Contribute to his opponent...

JOHN THUNE FOR US SENATE
P.O. BOX 3308

C'mon Daschle.

Democratic roadblocks in 2001 to the organization of the new Bush administration certainly didn't help America prepare for --->9/11.

[Quix]

DIMWIT DASHDULL DUFUSS TRAITOR HYPOCRITE IDIOT COMMIE CLUMSY CLOD IGNORAMOUS LOSER

GUESS WHAT

YOUR PARTY DID NOT WIN!

IF YOUR PARTY WERE IN POWER AND WE WERE ACTING AS YOU HAVE BEEN FOR YEARS, YOU'D HAVE LAUGHED IN OUR FACES 24 HOURS A DAY!

THE ONLY ONES WHO ARE MORE STUPID THAN YOU ARE THE IDIOT RHINO'S LETTING YOU GET AWAY WITH IT!

SHEESH.

SIGH.

[rrrod]

CALLING ALL REPUBLICANS SENATORS! ....DO NOT CAVE IN AGAIN!

[grannyc]

I think extortion is illegal.

[StriperSniper]

Democratic roadblocks in 2001 to the organization of the new Bush administration certainly didn't help America prepare for --->9/11.

That is an underreported fact. We had an FBI Director who was still arranging the pictures on his new desk a week before. From day one, the dims tried to cripple this administration, and I dare say that they bear a great deal of responsibility for the ability, or lack of, the government to respond that morning. They tried to sabotage every tool the President had to work with.
