Republican lies and the "Nuclear Option"

[theliberalavenger]

The Republicans are http://liberalavenger.com/2005/04/republican-lies-and-nuclear-option.html">lying to their own about the nuclear option.

The Democrats only blocked 10 of the 229 judicial nominees Bush sent up during his first presidential term. A normal person's reaction might be, "They <i>only</i> blocked ten nominees?"

10 nominees is the truth. Every supporter of the "Nuclear Option" must be challenged on the assertion that Democrats are blocking anyone and everyone Bush nominates who has ever expressed anything remotely connected with faith.

The numbers speak for themselves.

4. As Noted Elsewhere I Think It Is A Hollow Threat.

They trot it out everytime we look like we might actually stand up to them. We are getting beat with the mere threat. That is why they call it the Nuclear Option. To Make it sound like something HORRIBLE!

Give me a break and call their freaking bluff.
