Ah 2005 time to reach out to the Dems
In Bush's latest effort to reach out to those 48 % who fear Bush more than death iteself: President Bush will resubmit to the Senate a group of judicial nominees blocked by Democrats as too conservative, the White House said on Thursday as it signaled the start of a second-term battle over the make up of federal courts. "I hope that those who were responsible for obstructing those nominees learned an important lesson on Nov. 2," said Sen. John Cornyn, a Texas Republican and Senate Judiciary Committee member.

1. Important Lessons Learned:
"If we want to keep our basic freedoms we have to fight like hell and possibly take losses" and

"You can fool all of the people some of the time..." or at least some 50%.

"Republican candidates will say anything and there is no limit to how low they will stoop to win."

"Our party needs to quit trying to compromise with these thugs."

BOTH sides have to give up something.

Name ONE THING the Rethugs have given up since Raygun.
