    Senate Democrats Block 3 More Bush Judicial Nominees

    "...The votes against Michigan jurists Henry W. Saad, Richard A. Griffin and David W. McKeague for the Cincinnati-based U.S. Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit brought to 10 the total of Bush appellate court nominees whom Democrats have filibustered."

    We should no longer have to put up with these Liberal parasites in the U.S.A. After November, we can flush the collective lot of them.

    It's time to get the country back. That means reforming education, firing masses of bureaucrats, and putting in constitutional judges.

    The Liberals have done enough damage... it's time to get rid of them.

    Who? *goes to look*

    Oh. Ok. Wait, so how is a hotly contested debate by both sides, with opposition to him from groups and the like based on their opinion of his abilities, the same as a judge who both sides like but can't put in because of a separate issue that has nothing to do with his abilities?

    I don't even trust the judges nominated by Republican presidents to do the right thing once they get their lifetime appointment.

    Witness the Quisling John Roberts.

    And that goes double for judges appointed by Obama.

    The same judge republicans called "stellar", "awkward not to vote for one of the best nominees"? Really? Thats so counter intuitive i'd have to call it stupid if it wasnt so obviously partisan. Do republicans ever do anything?

    No judge nominated by Obama can be stellar.

    OK...Inhofe states the judge is one of the best candidates, then votes against him acknowledging it was for partisan reasons. If Inhofe was smart, he would of just made up some reason publicly so he doesnt look partisan. It takes an amazing amount of arrogance to tell us he doesnt have any guts. He liked the player, but since he had the wrong color jersey on, he isnt gonna play

    I hope our senators are not cheering for players on the other team.

    My side is often pretty inept at parliamentary infighting where libs and Democrats excel.

    So Republican senators do sometimes forget that the idea is to win for their side not get along with the enemy.
