The Dirty Six or James Dobson declares war on fillbustering Dems

Today our Congress comes back to DC to make us lives miserable and we have to make sure they do make us too unhappy. James C. Dobson who is best known as the founder of the Christian ministry Focus on the Family has now declared war on six Dems in the Senate.

The Dems in his scope are Ben Nelson (Nebraska), Mark Dayton (Minnesota), Robert "KKK" C. Byrd (West Virginia), Kent Conrad (North Dakota), Jeff Bingaman (New Mexico), and Bill Nelson (Florida).

Dobson is warning these six Dems that the same thing will happen to them if they continue down the same road as former colleague Tom Daschle did; they too might just get the shaft. Daschle was a senator from South Dakota who was defeated by Republican challenger John Thune. Political experts said the judicial obstructionism was Daschle's downfall.

This has been making headlines in the New York Times and Newsmax.com.

Lefty radio talker Ed Schultz really took on this issue of Dobson and the "dirty six" on his show yesterday, and Jeff Bingaman came on his show explain how he and the Dems just want judges that are in the mainstream and not "extreme right wing." Funny several judges had great nods from the American Bar Association, but never saw a chance to get confirmed just because of the Dems that held up the filler buster.

A spokesperson from People for the American Way (could have been Ralph Neas) came on Schultz's talk program admitted or spoke of supporting a "progressive" agenda. Its been reported that Dobson will go above and beyond the call and will now support certain candidates in the future. He did beginning to do just that this year. However he spoke for himself and not as Focus on the Family, but PAW will do what they can to hurt FOTF because of Dobson. I will have move on this in another post.

I am not a big fan of Jim Dobson but lets face facts, the Democrats in recent years have block certain judges from the bench, although they clamed to have confirmed around 80% of the judges that Bush nominated.

While I will not go over the names of the "borked" judges during Bush's 1st term, I am happy that some of these names are getting another chance. The Dems never gave then a chance at all. Again some of them had high marks from the ABA (and they are very liberal), but the Dems are afraid of judges that interpreted the law, rather than MAKE LAW!!!!

One can only wonder if Bush brings in a token lefty for the highest court of our land or any of our federal courts. Will the Dems rubber stamp these judges? Chances are they will. Reagan nominated "Mainstream" judges to our high court including Sandra Day O'Connor. Connor has tilted towards the left in many of the decisions made by our high court.

When it comes to the REgressives, they so blinded when they think their ideals are "mainstream." They really do think they are in mainstream.
