Democrats in the U.S. Senate are preparing a compromise designed to avert a showdown with Republicans over the use of the filibuster. "The New York Times" reports that Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada is working on the agreement and discussing it with members of both parties. It calls for the Democrats to approve some of President Bush's most controversial nominees, while the GOP would agree not to change any rules regarding filibusters. It remains to be seen, however, if Republicans will agree. Some GOP officials called the proposal "window dressing." Republican Senators, meantime, are working on their own compromise but it's reportedly not ready yet.
So Dems are compromising on the judges the have been saying for years are evil, radical, judges that would ruin the judiciary if they were ever, EVER to be nominated. I guess they must have been less than truthful about their motives. Either that, or they have no principles. If these judges are so bad, stick to your guns...If they weren't so bad that now you can confirm them...well...I guess we know you're just playing obstructionist.
