Today's Nuclear Option Debate Open Thread



| Reddit | Tumblr | Digg | FARK

AP reports that Harry Reid is blasting the GOP...and bringing Bush into the debate:

Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid said Thursday that President Bush and Republican senators are trying to "rewrite the Constitution and reinvent reality" in their push to confirm controversial judicial nominees.

"The Senate is not a rubber stamp for the executive branch," Reid said. "Rather, we're the one institution where the minority has a voice and the ability to check the power of the majority. Today, in the face of President Bush's power grab, that's more important than ever."
Reid knows that Bush and Rove, along with the Dobson/Perkins/Robertson right wing cabal, are driving this agenda -- and none of them will allow a compromise -- ever.

Bill Frist, who is beholden to the right wing nuts because he wants to President, is really looking more and more like a hapless puppet in this debate every day....
