How differently things would have been if Frist had used the nuclear/Constitutional option last year.Wouldn't that have been nice? So many opportunities missed and blown. Thanks nadless GOP Senators. Thanks ego-McCainiac. Thanks butt-kisser Graham.
To: Arkinsaw
It wasn't in the mainstream news AT ALL until the Constitutional option was brought up.

Isn't it nice to see comity and compromise in the Senate?
To: wagglebee
Though they technically have enough votes on the panel and in the Senate to defeat any Bush judicial pick, they may still have a tough time keeping their caucus together as some moderate Democrats joined a group of Republicans in making sure filibusters weren't used to hold up nominees. I'm sure we'll soon hear this little experiment in bipartisanship only applied to republican ruled congresses.......Now all bets are off.

Dems are suddenly pushing hard on all the issues they refused to talk about during the election.
Abortion, Gay rights, higher taxes, Surrender, etc,etc...
And the MEdia is utterly silent about it...

He added that Bush "will have to negotiate with us, because we'll have the majority." No, Schumer, he doesn't have to negotiate with you. All he has to do, under the Constitution, is send his judicial nominations to the Senate. If you choose to reject them, leaving all sorts of courts without judges, that's up to you. If I were Bush, that's exactly how I'd play it, and let the public know who's responsible for all those judicial vacancies. Including the SCOTUS, if it comes to that.

I thought some of the new Democrat Senators were "pro-life"--Casey of PA comes to mind, and he was chosen specifically because he was supposed to negate the abortion issue against Santorum.
So the Democrats plan to force them to vote against pro-life justice candidates?
To: wagglebee
Well, the GOP senators
could filibuster any and all legislation sent to the senate from the now-Democrat House, taking a page from the senate Dems of the last few years.
But we know they won't.
That just wouldn't be nice.

The position stated is kind of an extrapolation of the nuances presented as illustrations in the essay. As such it is BS.

What Bush should do is turn this into farse. Line up about 20 good people willing to do this. Nominate a good conservative justice. Wait one week for the democrats to make fools of themselves and withdraw the nominee - democrats vetoed him. Bring up the next guy. Wait one week for the democratw to make fools of themselves........Repeat for 2 years.

I have no love for Frist, but I think the nuclear option was short-circuited by MeCain and his gang of 14. (rhymes with whore-team)

Gee, what a shock. Hope the Catholics who turned to the rat party of death are pleased.
I just don't understand how a Catholic can vote for a rat...surely, they know they all stand for abortion.

It's funny that all those liberals gave their comments to Newsday, the house organ of the Democrat Party.
To: wagglebee
Justice John Paul Stevens, who was the subject of retirement speculations shortly before the elections, is 86 years-old and battling significant health problems. Ruth Bader Ginsberg, another abortion advocate is 73 years-old and has her own health concerns. Well, should one or both of these goodfellows go on to meet their maker, Bush might consider the following option:
Nominate the best constitutionalist available and when the RATs defeat him/her, leave the post vacant.
