No Compromise on Moral Crusades
Frist says maybe, Rove says No
Anyone who watched Justice Sunday shouldn't be surprised that Rove is backing off talk of a Senate compromise on Judicial nominees. Despite the talk of wanting to work with Democrats, the all or nothing approach is on par with just about every other proposal that's emerged from the administration. You are with 'em or you're against them. I think a compromise, as is being widely reported would be a good thing, long overdue in these polarized times. But I just can't look at James Dobson on the other radical clerics and see anything but the basest fundamentalism, that of itself doesn't accept questioning of its tenents. One can hope none-the-less.
Rove: Bolton will be confirmed; judges deserve vote
