Stupid Repukes killed their own talking point: "fair up or down vote"

[goodboy]

They didn't even let Miers get to the committee!


Fucking Idiots.

1. Didn't even think of that until you posted this

but that's really good. Hopefully the Dems get a chance to use it during the next confirmation process.

2. that slogan is not remembered by Repugs. selective amnesia.

4. they are talking of this on Joe S. show right now.

3. Coulter, Rush, etc, are now running the GOP

They are now proudly announcing W is only a puppet and unless he nominates a right wing wacko they'll slap him down again. What they did to Ms. Miers was really dirty. No up or down votes unless the right wing wacko factor allows it. What a sham.

5. That's the first thought I had....up or down, up or down, up or down

up or down, up or down, up or down..how many times did we have to hear that? What morans.

8. Funny...

they didn't believe in up or down votes when Clinton was sending nominees...
(don't tell me that's different, I know.)

6. Looks like they were ratfucked by Harry Reid.

Whodathunkit?

[submerged99]

7. They will say"She withdrew herself"

Their response will be that Miers withdrew herself.

[goodboy]

11. yeah...the "withdrawl" method doesn't work if you're getting fucked...

[Ilsa]

9. I heard Mark Shields make that point and point a finger at David Brooks

on the News Hour tonight. Pretty much called them all hypocrites because no one really got to find out anything about Miers as they wouldn't even let her get to the committee, much less get an "up or down vote"?

10. Like John Roberts, the next nominee deserves a 'fair, up or down vote'

Why didn't Harriet get a "fair up or down" vote?
