How many Bush nominees will Democrats oppose?

[ScotTissue]

Do you think the Congressional Democrats will stand tall against all of Bush's new nominees? Or some? Or any?

1. Z E R O ---0000000000000--- Z E R O

Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero, Zero


Thanks You sir May i have another!

2. Probably not any

Traditionally the winner of the election gets to choose his cabinet, and Senate approval is pretty much automatic. The real sparks fly when judicial nominations are sent to the Senate.

4. Fate of the world versus tradition.

And the Congressional Democrats will choose tradition?

[kvining]

7. Usually

There are some things that are done because you don't want to set a precedent for it. If we hassle their nominees, they will hassle ours if we ever get in.

8. Lame excuse

Lame excuse for allowing this handbasket to continue its descent into hell.

16. See #15

Its not an excuse, that's politics.

17. Let's worry about the supreme court nominees

3. next to nothing

5. If I were there

I would fight Condi like I was fighting for my life! But they wont fight anyone we will be lucky if these bunch of wimps oppose a Judicial Nominee!

P.S. I am almost ashamed to say this lately but I am a Dem so I am not someone else attacking the spineless idiots on the hill. My party has lost its Back bone but they better find the Freak'n thing soon.

6. they couldn't keep Ashcroft out

why would it be any different now?

[Telly Savalas]

9. Doesn't it just take a simple majority to approve a cabinet appointment?

If so, what exactly are the Democrats supposed to do to stop Bush?

[kvining]

15. Precsiely

The only alternative is to do a filibuster, and shut the entire government down. Bad politics. Sorry guys, this is what happens when you lose. We have to keep our powder dry for the real fight - fascist Supreme Court nomimees. Then we better fight like hell or I'm joining Nader. We have to live with justices forever. We have to live with Condi for four years. We can't shut the government down for every appointee we don't like.

10. NONE of them. The Democrats were useless before

and now they are useless and powerless. The repuke own this country now.

11. If the current trend leaving appeasement pussies in "leadership" continues

...Then expect any judge Junior nominates to be confirmed easily....

Meet your new Supreme Imperial Court Justices....

12. Reid will dance

We need a photoshop of Reid in a Pink TuTu

[LiberalCat]

13. Ha Ha. That's funny!

Congressional Democrats standing up for themselves and us. That's an oxymoron.

[Walt Starr]

14. Hell, this batch of pink tutus won't even ask tough questions during

the hearings!

Senator Biden: Mr. Gonzales, can you tell us how God has shaped your legal thought processes about justice?

Gonzales: I'm glad you asked me that question, Senator Biden, and it's one of the toughest I've yet faced here in this illustrious committee chamber.
