Reid Accuses GOP of Arrogance on Courts

Rock on Harry! :headbang:

Bitchslap those repukes, man! :spank:

By JESSE J. HOLLAND, Associated Press Writer

WASHINGTON - Congressional Democrats on Tuesday said Republican criticism of the federal courts following Terri Schiavo's death showed an "arrogancy of power" that is leading to a Senate confrontation over filibusters of President Bush's judicial nominees.

"If they don't get what they want, they attack whoever's around," said Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid of Nevada. "Now they're after the courts, and I think it goes back to this arrogancy of power."

Republicans said judges' rejection of efforts to keep Schiavo alive was a separate issue from the dispute over the filibuster.

"I don't associate the two issues directly," said Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist, R-Tenn.

Frist and several other Senate Republicans have not joined with conservatives who have complained about the federal court system in relation to the Schiavo case.

It's much worse in fact.

They want to remake America into Amerika.

WASS

it is fascism. That is what happens when the repukes run everything.

I agree with the sentiment, but "arrogancy" sounds funny. Isn't "arrogance" good enough?

"Arrogancy" sounds EXACTLY like something Dubya would say. But according to post #5, it's a real word.

Just looked it up on dictionary.com. Thank goodness it is, but it does sound stupid.

"Arrogancy"???? Why the fuck use a word that will make Joe Idiot scratch his head and try to think. Why not say "REPUBS ABUSE POWER". Easy to digest and remember. Ugggh. Seriously, this is a serious problem for the Dems, they have to speak in more visceral, easily digestible terminology that will stick.

Just saying...

is stating the obvious with an understatement really bold?

Publicly calling the Repukes arrogant. Great job Harry Reid!

Give 'em hell Harry & Howard!!!!

and is full of criminals, that's where the arrogancy flows from.
