DO IT! For the love of god - stand up for what we democrats are supposed to be all about and keep this right wing extremist from replacing Justice Day and tipping the court in a dangerous direction for the common folk.

1. Now's the time. Since sig lines are off now, posting mine. It applies.

If Frist THREATENS to get rid of the filibuster at every mention of one, isn't that basically already banning the filibuster? Call his bluff. Make him STFU about it or go on record as taking that step toward tyranny! Hold bullies accountable! Letting them win by default is no strategy.

2. agreed. This is not the time for worrying about re-election...

this has the potential to effect us, our kids, and their kids for a very, very long time. Workers rights - limited. Civil rights - limited. Freedom...our big claim to fame - limited.

Pull a filibuster NOW!

3. I believe it would HELP DEMS on re-election!

Kissing bullies' butts is NOT a position of strength! People like STRONG. Time to stand up for the core values!

4. me too - but I'm sure the pols don't see it quite that way. Fearful

of being obstructionists.

Here's the thing - I DON'T CARE. This guy is just too damn far to the right.
