Bob Dole Speaks

In the coming days, I hope changing the Senate's rules won't be necessary, but Senator Frist will be fully justified in doing so if he believes he has exhausted every effort at compromise. Of course, there is an easier solution to the impasse: Democrats can stop playing their obstruction game and let President Bush's judicial nominees receive what they are entitled to: an up-or-down vote on the floor of the world's greatest deliberative body.

Tru dat.

Ten out of 212 that dems want to stop.

How about the 40 nominated by Clinton that never got that up or down vote? Your boy Jay Sekulow and Tony "KKK" Perkins can't seem to remember either.

This is Bob Dole the erection salesman, right? The only "obstruction" going on is in his pants.

oops. I meant 60 Clinton judges blocked by cons in 8 years. We can go ahead and compare that to 4+ years of Bush, since he's already a lame duck.

Nice KKK reference. You must have missed my post on Alabama Republicans repealing those Democratic Jim Crow laws.

Distinction without difference. Jim Crow was repealed by the Supreme Court, not by fake executive acts 50 yrs hence. Sort of like those old "moose crossing street" laws.

True they were dems back in the day, but as soon as the civil rights movement got goiing, your ideological ancestors moved on over to the republican party, where they didn't have to worry about those meddlesome blacks and jews.


As for my Tony Perkins reference, don't take my word for it, dig a little yourself. It wont take long to discover he paid for David Duke's fundraising lists in La. Why?
