Bush said the war's critics should stop questioning the motives that led him to launch the invasion of Iraq in March 2003.Senate Democrats: Why do you never say things like this?!?!
"The American people know the difference between responsible and irresponsible debate when they see it…. And they know the difference between a loyal opposition that points out what is wrong, and defeatists who refuse to see that anything is right," Bush said.
"I ask all Americans to hold their elected leaders to account and demand a debate that brings credit to our democracy — not comfort to our adversaries," Bush said.

Karen Finney, the Democratic National Committee's communications director, said "the Bush administration's attack, distract and distort tactics reflect a Nixonian paranoia that is un-American."

Can I pleeeeeeease have my Nuclear Option fight now?
I'm with you, brother.
To clarify: I'm with you that, at this point, I'm game for a judicial filibuster, letting the chips fall where they may as to whether the Republicans will exercise the nuclear option. There's no point on preserving a filibuster if it means people like Alito on the court.
Nothing I have seen this week makes me think that the Democrats are adequately competent, concerned, or gutsy to pull the trigger. The Democrats' confirmation strategy appears designed to ask poorly worded questions to satisfy core constituencies, allowing those senators to claim that they tried, then occasionally allude to Alito's badness in future campaign speeches. I don't think many of them give a damn about whether Alito is confirmed.
They have been godawful.
Too bad she can't speak English, huh?
