If Dems confirm Roberts, Repubs will look like blathering fools

[DesEtoiles]

Huffing and puffing, shouting obstruction over nothing.

[Larkspur]

1. And Dems who vote for Roberts will be ticking off their base

by voting for a man who supports overturning Roe versus Wade as well as supports corporate-government secrecy.

[jazzjunkysue]

4. We don't know that yet. That's why he was chosen.

[mondo joe]

6. We don't know that. And isn't ANY Bush nominee going to tick off Dems?

Really, you know it'll be a conservative.

[ScreamingMeemie]

7. Agreed. Agreed. Agreed.

[SaveElmer]

9. They won't vote for him...

1. Keep our powder dry till the hearings...get back to the real news of Rove etc.

2. Rake him over the coals during the hearings...see if some skeleton pops up.

3. If not, vote against him, but don't filibuster...and wait for the next one.

There is no advantage politically in fighting this one...this is a fight that we can't win...and the Bushies are dying for us to try!

[kevsand]

11. We CAN win this fight,

because the majority of the country agrees with us. Never surrender a fight when you have the majority on your side.

[NYC Liberal]

2. Nope, they'll get their way.

Thatwill overshadow any bad imagery from shouting over nothing.

[Mojambo]

3. The repubs might look like blathering fools

But the Democrats would BE blathering fools.

[electron_blue]

5. Oh yeah, I'm sure they'll be crying a river

not.

[DistressedAmerican]

8. The Same Logic Would Apply If They Nominated Hitler.

I strongly disagree. Let them call me an obstructionist. I couldn't care less.

This man is WRONG for the nation!

[liberalnurse]

10. So what! I want the fight...we need to fight.

Appearances are easily forgotten.
