They're claiming that "nuclear option" is a phrase created by Democrats, even though they've admitted to inventing it in the past year. Here's what happened. Their own internal focus groups have shown that the public hates their threat of the "nuclear option", so now they're backtracking and saying the phrase is wholly a creation of their detractors. This is exactly like "privatization". The GOP invented the phrase and when the American people shit all over their idea, they try not to use the term they invented. They blew privatization, they badly misread Americans feelings about the Schiavo case and the economy is tanking bigtime. Gas prices are through the roof (between $2.70 and $3.05 here in the Bay Area). Their majority leader is taking it up the ass for his illegal shenanigans. The public has shown increasing POSITIVE response the the Democrats filibustering their radical nominees and support the Left keeping the right in check.
