WASHINGTON - Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid said Saturday that the fight over President Bush's judicial nominees is really a battle between Democrats who believe in checks and balances and Republicans who want everything their way.

The GOP has threatened to change the Senate rules to ban filibusters of judicial nominees, which Democrats have used to block 10 Bush nominees.

15. To me they seem to desperately want to cram everything through before

2006. . .they seem to be in a big hurry to shove everything in the Bush Toolbox through congress before people wake up.

2. I'd go one further--

I'd say it's really a battle for the soul of the Republic. I'd say if Bush's judicial nominees go through, we will have officially entered a new era of American crypto-theocratic fascism, and all of us progressives can kiss our constitutional rights goodbye.
