Update please.

Have any of the usual "RINOS" caved in yet, or gone over to the enemy, or otherwise shown that in the general election, 'the lesser of two evils' is often still 'evil'??

For all of the feminist blustering about woman in government California has sent the most reprehensible role models for women: screeching, hysterical, emotionally out of control stereotypes: Pelosi,Boxer,Woolsey, Feinstein.

Well said.......Hopefully someday we can atone!

If Nelson dishonors Nebraska again, my friends and family back home will have to vote him out.

In Nebraska, you get elected to federal office for one of two reasons.
1. We really like you.
2. We want you out of town.

Guess which one Nelson is?

Surely it isn't for yet the umpteenth press conference that the Dems have held to tell the world how mean the GOP is--

I think CSPAN said that they were going to a meeting with Rumsfeld. Wouldn't it be entertaining if some Rummy plain-speaking would rub off on some GOP senator?

On another note, the DJIA is now up 300 points over the past two days . . .

Hillary is looking at a poll as we speak.... Blacks down, Hispanics down, Intelligent Dems down. Oh, no...they think we don't care....just because we bashed a couple of judges.

Judge Lefko, whose husband and mother were murded in Chicago, is up now on a replay of the Judiciary Committee.

Testifying about judicial protection.

I think I would much rather have them have a food fight than what I just heard on the ABC radio news at the top of the hour--

It said that the senators are meeting right now to discuss THE compromise...

(hands in praying position)-PLease, NO, Frist don't do it, do not do it--you are the hero right now, don't turn into the chump!

Anyone not taking time to do errands, please consider E-mailing and phoning Senatos. We need to keep pressure high on RINO's.

"Not only is what the Democrats are doing not allowed by the Constitution and contrary to 200+ years of Senate tradition, it's poor political strategy. Harry Reid and company would have been wise to go in a different direction."
---

This article seems to be a very clear-headed view of things. Praise God the demonrats are doing what they are and pray to God the Republicans continue to hold fast to the principle that the nominees before the Senate deserve an up or down vote (and start adding a little humor while showing the outrageousness of the claims of the Democrats).
