President Dobson speaks...

THIS (DOBSON) is the response i was waiting to hear and it's pretty much what i expected (and was afraid of)... like i said last night, we pretty much got a lose-lose deal... but, like the old saying goes, for frist, "if MAMA/DOBSON ain't happy, ain't NOBODY happy..."

"This Senate agreement represents a complete bailout and betrayal by a cabal of Republicans and a great victory for united Democrats. Only three of President Bush’s nominees will be given the courtesy of an up-or-down vote, and it's business as usual for all the rest. The rules that blocked conservative nominees remain in effect, and nothing of significance has changed. Justice Clarence Thomas, Justice Antonin Scalia, and Chief Justice William Rehnquist would never have served on the U. S. Supreme Court if this agreement had been in place during their confirmations. The unconstitutional filibuster survives in the arsenal of Senate liberals.

"We are grateful to Majority Leader Frist for courageously fighting to defend the vital principle of basic fairness. That principle has now gone down to defeat. We share the disappointment, outrage and sense of abandonment felt by millions of conservative Americans who helped put Republicans in power last November. I am certain that these voters will remember both Democrats and Republicans who betrayed their trust."

fair warning, you weak-kneed, spineless, craven cowards... well, no surprise he's pissed... it was clear from the get-go that it was the whole pie or nothing... sounds like he didn't scotch frist's presidential amibtions, tho'... you can be sure the pressure on all fronts from this guy and his minions will only be re-doubled... they've got an iou out there and, by cracky, they're gonna collect...
