Promises Action in Spite of RINOs in Gang of 14

Senate Majority Leader Bill Frist (R-TN) warned Democrats yesterday that he will not hesitate to trigger the so-called ?nuclear option? to enforce an eleventh-hour deal that a centrist coalition of 14 lawmakers struck Monday on President Bush?s stalled judicial nominees.

At least some in the Senate continue to fly the Republican flag instead of the white flag of the RINO caucus. Meanwhile, two of the RINOs are developing their waffling skills to a previously unheard of level:

Sens. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) (RINO-SC)and Mike DeWine (R-O) (RINO-O), two of the seven Republican signatories to the memorandum of understanding on the judges, backed up Frist, threatening to vote for the option should Democrats attempt to block nominees in circumstances that the two lawmakers would not consider ?extraordinary.?

So what's THAT all about? Feeling some heat from back home? Or what?

Anyway, the CHief hopes that Frist and the remaining real GOP senators go ahead and PUSH the agenda to the max, & let the chips fall where they may. At least that way the wafflers on both sides wpuld be exposed for once and for all for what they really are, or are not. THAT would seriously clear the air!

YIKES! Blogposts Vanish into Ether!

Something horrible happened this afternoon resulting in the deletion of all of the Chief's postings from June through the current date/time.

Even more unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be retrievable - AND - this occurred with no backup for the time in question. (I know, always do regular backups - and I DO, at least for my working files - but I didn't think to do so for my blog. Oh well.

What's the old moonbat-ish cliche? Oh yeah, this is almost like the first day of the rest of the blog - and I'll have new posts up (generally) daily.

I can't even begin to touch the quality of blogging that others are providing, so I'm trusting that you're reading it. As I look over the Times-Picayune site, I can't seem to quite get my head around the devastation that's...
