I don't understand this word..Compromise

GOP Urges Quick Judicial Confirmations

Excerpt: If the agreement is carried out in good faith, he said, "I believe it will make filibusters in the future, including Supreme Court nominees, almost impossible."

H.L.s Take:The democrats have agreed to filibuster judges only under extraordinary circumstances. So its going to come down to the definition of extraordinary. I would say any Supreme Court opening would be an extraordinary circumstance since it happens so infrequently. To Republicans an Extraordinary circumstance would be if Bush nominated Godzilla to a judgeship.
Meanwhile its business as usual in Iraq, NY Times

Eight U.S. Soldiers Killed Over Two Days in Iraq

Excerpt: BAGHDAD, Iraq, May 24 - Eight American soldiers were killed in attacks by insurgents over the past the two days, the military said today, as a renewed wave of violence continued.

H.L.s Take:1644 of our soldiers dead for a lie. This should be the lead story on every news show, every day.

Canadian Soldiers Killed by U.S. Honored

Excerpt: The Canadians Cpl. Ainsworthy Dyer, Pvt. Richard Green, Sgt. Marc Leger and Pvt. Nathan Smith were fighting alongside American forces outside Kandahar in April 2002 when an Illinois National Guard pilot mistook their live-ammunition exercises as a hostile attack and dropped a 500-pound bomb. "When soldiers fight beside other soldiers, it doesn't matter what nationality, it doesn't matter what race. Soldiers are soldiers. And as soon as they step onto that battlefield, they become family," said Col. Michael Steele, commander of 101st's 3rd Brigade at Fort Campbell.

H.L.s Take:So your government decideds who's your brother and who's not. And the guy who's your brother today, may not be tomorrow, then you will have to kill him. Makes sense.

H.L.s Take:I didn't watch all of this but, in what I saw Dean was fighting, he called them liars, and trashed Delay. Too bad he's for the war now. otherwise I would really like this guy.

H.L.s Take:They don't like being called liars? How about Murderers? Sorry to hear that, but thats what they are LIARS, (and murderers)
