Bill Clinton (D-Umbass)
"[T]he Democrats blocked 10 out of 200 judges the Republicans wouldn't even give a vote to 40 of my Court of Appeals judges, four times as many, just on the Court of Appeals, never mind all the others that they wouldn't have voted. So this image that, I'm sad to say, you know, you just perpetrated it, it's ridiculous. The Democratic [sic] Senate's been nowhere near as obstructionist to President Bush on judges as the Republican Senate was to me, not even close."
**Lets review reality (again!!):
Currently the Presidency, and the House and Senate are Republican controlled. This is a mandate for Republican leadership and policy.
During Clinton’s time the House and Senate were Republican controlled and there was no overwhelming mandate for the representatives of the states to push through anything Clinton wanted.
Clinton couldn't get his nominees through the process because he couldn't win the vote........Bush has the votes, but the Dems won't even allow the vote to occure because they are filibustering it!!!**

apparently, you and i are the only ones that realize that democrat and democratic do not mean the same thing...too many commentators and media types as well as senators and congressmen continue to call the democrat party the democratic party and as you know very few if any democrats are truly democratic and some republicans as well

It's okay to filibuster if they're not Nazis, right?
