thing. The GOP is loading up on a huge team being paid big bucks to go out and lobby for whoever Bush's choices are going to be.

You know what? These slimes DON"T WANT ROE v WADE overturned. What they want is a 3rd branch of government to be corporate-friendly.

We are going to see a further breaking down the bulwark of legislation and precedent that protected regular citizens. The money is truly going to flow uphill once these new "moderate to conservative" justices are installed.

2. much of K street uses madison avenue tactics
they are going to blitz the US airwaves with their spin or "advertising" on why candidate A or B is such a great choice and the Dems would be CRAZY, just CRAZY, I tell ya, to oppose them.

It's going to be disgusting. Remember Saxby Chambliss utterly shitting on the proud war record of Max Cleland? It will be that kind of thing for any senators who oppose TIMES 100. They will try to use the whole political angle around confirmation hearing to get traction in 2006 elections.

Things are ALWAYS TIED TOGETHER in one big grand scheme to TAKE OUT THE OPPOSITION and continually outflank them.

As military strategists...these guys in GOP uniforms would be great. As leading party of our country, they are FUCKING US OVER.
