Couldn't agree more!
Frist needs to take back control of the Republican Majority by disciplining McCain and the other turncoats.

The whole Congress is in Bed with the New World Order, the US Constitution is being sold out.
Sorry but I suspect it is perfectly legal for 14 members of the Senate to band together and decide to vote a certain way. That is what this is about.
Judge Bork was on Hannity today, and said this argument is hogwash. The Senate is entitled to set its own rules for the handling of nominees.
This "compromise" has effectively fillibustered 7 out of 10 of Bush's nominees without the Dems even having to do it! What were those 7 Republ-Ocrats thinking? Oh, right, they weren't.
I got a telephone call from a good friend this afternoon, a highly educated and accomplished businessman, and generally a reliable conservative. However, he really surprised me by telling me how pleased he was that the cloture rule wasn't changed. "This is the way the founding fathers designed the Senate to operate and we have no business tampering with it," he said. He really thinks the 60 vote cloture rule is written into the Constitution.
And Reid has been feeding that fantasy with plainly deceitful statements and outrageous demagoguery.
I am not as disappointed in Senate Republicans as I am in my own countrymen, supposed conservatives, who ought to know better.
I don't know how this is going to turn out and frankly I am so pissed for the moment I don't care. All I know is that I will do everything in my power to make sure those weasels in the gang of seven pay with their Senate seats.
