The Savage Republican

John McCain continues his attack on the Constitution in order to keep his membership at the NY Press Club.
I just saw the Press conference where they made a great compromise - The Democrats promise they will not filibuster any candidate but those that are extreme (Uh - Didn't they say all of bush nominees are extreme) and in return, John McCain throws two of the judges under the bus (Saad and Myers I think) and takes away the Senates duty to vote on the judges.
So why would the Democrats agree to this - because they were going to lose the vote so they have everything to gain: keep the ability to not do their constitutional duty and filibuster judges and get rid of two judges, and nothing to lose - the judges they agree to appoint would have been appointed anyway.
What do the Republicans Gain, nothing!
What do the RINO gain - Lots of media reports about how wonderful they are.

Ahh - It's worse then I though, just read the details.

The Democrats agree to not filibuster unless the candidate is extreme (In their opinion).
The Republican agree to not change the rules this congress. No wiggle room - No unless the candidates are unfairly filibuster - just "We will not change the rule in the 109th Congress"

I think it is time to make sure that at least some of these folks don't get a chance to make this same kind of deal in the next Congress.


I plan to support anyone who will run against these cowards!
I have lost more of my Constitutional Rights to John McCain then to John Kerry -
It is time to stop!

More to come....

One note that is very telling of these folks, as I went to their web sites to see when they were up for re-election, I went and saw their press releases.
Page after Page of how much money they got for their state - so if they are not social conservatives and they are not fiscal conservatives, what does the R by them stand for?
