Poll: Senate Should Examine Federal Judges
Associated Press
WASHINGTON -- More than three-quarters of Americans say the Senate
should aggressively examine federal judicial nominees and not just
approve them because they are the president's choices.
That's one of the few aspects of this divisive issue that gets
widespread agreement, according to an Associated Press-Ipsos poll
released Friday....
The poll found 78 percent believe the Senate should take an "assertive
role" examining judicial nominees. There were majorities among each
political affiliation _ Democrats, Republicans and independent.
"I'm probably more on the conservative side, but I think the Senate
should closely look at each nominee," said Heidi Densel, a Republican
from Fort Wayne, Ind.
Democrat Carol Zebott of Duluth, Minn., said she wants the Senate to
examine the judicial choices of the president because "I just think he
has been making a lot of bad decisions lately."...

so why won't your 'rat buddies allow the vote? It's an easy answer. They
will
illustrate just how big a bunch of obstructionists they really are. A
filibuster hides that little problem for the 'rats.


Because maybe they believe these nominees are bad for the country?

Then they should vote against them.

Then vote them down.
Remember, we Republicans are much, much more likely to vote right v wrong than
the 'rats, who always toe the party line like good little munchkins.

The concept of a fillibuster was encoded into the US govt. as a means of
preventing dictatorship of a slim majority. Bush didn't exactly win by
a landslide.
Q: Guess who holds the record for the longest filibuster?
A: Republican Strom Thurmond in '57 for trying to prevent the Civil

Let me clarify, Thurmond switched from Dem to Repug in '64, though still
remained a member of the Republicratic Party. Not much difference
between a Dem. and Repug., especially in rural and Bible Belt areas.

This was before the realignment. The dixiecrats were right-wing racist
good 'ol bible-thumping klan buggers. Around Nixon's time they bolted
from the Democratic Party, to the Repubs. where racism was still alive
and well. So yes, you can call Strom Thurmond a Democrat, at the time.
But there were good and bad people in both parties, especially further
back in Teddy Roosevelt's time.
Now we have a party of fascists and flat-earth fundamentalists on one
side, and a party of spineless fascist-wannabes on the other.
I like the "'rat" terminology you lay on the Democrats. Since they've
veered toward fascism themselves the past few decades (failed to shut
down the School of the Americas, opened up all sorts of Old Growth
during the Clinton years, lobbied to have weapon's grade tritium
produced at civilian nuke plants, failed to produce a single-payer
publicly owned health care system, gave a warhawk president exclusive
rights to declare war twice, were complicit in illegal regime change of
various small governments, etc.) if you have a problem with the
democrats, it must be that they're too plutocratic and fascist?
Or are you one of the deluded who thinks that if the democrats have
failings, you'd rather get out of the pan and jump into the fire that's
cooking them? Yeah, the Repugs. THEY aren't controlled by big money,
THEY will preserve the environment and reign in the cost of health care.
THEY will make the world a more peaceful place. THEY will introduce
more trust in the system. What a crock.
Maybe we should nuke the Old Growth forests because they might harbor
terrorists, nuke some random country on manufactured reasons, sell off
the White House to the highest bidder (oops, already did that in '00),
imprint a barcode on everyone's head and put a camera on their sex organ
so that Pat Robertson can see where it's inserted, or what gets inserted
into it as a litmus test for everything?
Then when you get all of that, what will you still be upset with? Those
goddamned communist liberals again?

You're saying the "dixiecrats" were Republican???????????

Around Nixon's time they bolted

Remember, the south turned solid 'rat after the Civil War because Lincoln was a
Republican. The dixiecrats were 'rats.

But there were good and bad people in both parties, especially further
back in Teddy Roosevelt's time.

But of course.

Now we have a party of fascists and flat-earth fundamentalists on one

Sometimes I do wonder what drives them.

Well, that comes from democRATS.

Since they've
veered toward fascism themselves the past few decades (failed to shut
down the School of the Americas, opened up all sorts of Old Growth
during the Clinton years, lobbied to have weapon's grade tritium
produced at civilian nuke plants, failed to produce a single-payer
publicly owned health care system, gave a warhawk president exclusive
rights to declare war twice, were complicit in illegal regime change of
various small governments, etc.) if you have a problem with the
democrats, it must be that they're too plutocratic and fascist?

Nope. My problem with the 'rats is that they became the party of the minority,
by the minority and for the minority.
Their constituency consists almost exclusively of:
people of color, queers, lesbians, abortion supporters, gay marriage supporters,
and probably a few other left wing fringe element types.
Now before you jump on me for my "people of color" comment, I have such friends
and they form solid 'rat voters. And I tell them that until they start to split
their votes, they will be ignored by Republicans because there is nothing a
Republican can do for them to get their vote, and the 'rats don't have to do
anything for them because they always get their vote anyway.

Or are you one of the deluded who thinks that if the democrats have
failings, you'd rather get out of the pan and jump into the fire that's
cooking them? Yeah, the Repugs.

Not my thoughts at all. I see the 'rats purely buying votes from the
minorities to get elected and I see my Republican party seeking votes from those
that think "USA" and wave the flag. It's a case of democracy against republic.

THEY aren't controlled by big money,

***ALL*** politicians are controlled by big money, 'rats and Republicans alike.

THEY will preserve the environment and reign in the cost of health care.
THEY will make the world a more peaceful place. THEY will introduce
more trust in the system. What a crock.

No one can simply "reign" in health care costs. This is a free country guided
by a Constitution. The very second the health care field is "reigned in",
salaries of all health care workers plummet and then the rest of the economy
follows suit.
Remember that all goods and services are 100% labor intensive as all materials
come free from the earth, and that includes the machine that made the machine
that made the machine that made the machine.

Maybe we should nuke the Old Growth forests because they might harbor
terrorists, nuke some random country on manufactured reasons, sell off
the White House to the highest bidder (oops, already did that in '00),
imprint a barcode on everyone's head and put a camera on their sex organ
so that Pat Robertson can see where it's inserted, or what gets inserted
into it as a litmus test for everything?

Pat Robertson doesn't run or control this country. The left wing fringe
element drives us away from the 'rats.

Then when you get all of that, what will you still be upset with? Those
goddamned communist liberals again?

As long as they represent principles that insult my principles, probably so. I
too am an American with free rights guaranteed by the constitution, and I don't
want abortions in my neighborhood, my town, my state, or my country, or with my
money. I don't want them on my world either, but I can't control that with my
vote.
If I could, I would.
And that's what the liberal "communists" 'rats you refer to are scared to death
of - I have rights too, and I don't agree with there's.

Indeed, too accomodating. In largely supporting a former Republican
lawmaker from Florida to be the new CIA chief in an era of
politically-skewed "intelligence", the Democrats simply do not offer a
real opposition to the Republicans.
I would urge progressive and antiwar Democrats to abandon that party and
join the Greens, even if it means a split opposition for a few terms,
and total control of all branches of government by the extreme-right.
If the Democrats are finally now going to take a stand, it's clear that
it's too little, too late.
Now, had they listened to the anti-war protesters in '68 and picked
McCarthy and/or McGovern, one might be compelled to look at the
Democrats in a totally different light today.
Filibuster rights for judicial nominees is hardly a big battle. It's
another little opera, staged for our amusement, to think that there's
real opposition. The democrats twice handed over privilege to the
Executive Branch to declare war, FAR more damaging than this little
filibuster fiasco in the long run.

Poll: Senate Should Examine Federal Judges
Associated Press

WASHINGTON -- More than three-quarters of Americans say the Senate
should aggressively examine federal judicial nominees and not just
approve them because they are the president's choices.

That's one of the few aspects of this divisive issue that gets
widespread agreement, according to an Associated Press-Ipsos poll
released Friday....

The poll found 78 percent believe the Senate should take an "assertive
role" examining judicial nominees. There were majorities among each
political affiliation _ Democrats, Republicans and independent.
...

So who gives a *****? My guess is 78 percent believe taxes are too high,
but nobody gives a *****.
