Developing on Huff Po: Frist says in private "Alito Dems worst nightmare"
Private Comments Undercut White House Confirmation Strategy…

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist told Republican Party activists on Friday night that U.S. Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito was the "worst nightmare of liberal Democrats."

Frist, a Tennessee Republican, made the remark to fellow Republicans during a private tour he gave them of the Senate chamber when the Senate was not in session.

2. even the freeps can't believe how stupid Frist is.
"Frist is a fool.

You can't say anything to a large group anymore without it being leaked.

Can't he just wait a week and see the dems filibuster or not.

Now their justification to filibuster will be because of frist.

Thanks Frist you moron for stabbing alito in the back.



Damn frist, he couldn't just stfu for one more week.

We are going to be hearing about this over and over and over again on the senate floor.

Damn that leaker too. You never get leaks out of the dem side."

8. Hmmm... maybe Frist really wanted to sabotage the nom,
but needed a backhanded "Oops!" way to accomplish it.

11. and why is that Doctor Video?
Because Alito has an agenda? A pro-corporate, anti worker, anti-choice (well we knew that,) let's-give-the-president-all the-executive-power-he-wants kind of agenda?

When will the sheeples wake up and take a long, hard look that these rethuglicans do NOT SERVE THEIR BEST INTERESTS.

The rich get richer and the poor get poorer.
