The President should nominate anyone he chooses, but he should also make a recess-appointment of Judge Bork, while they're waiting on the Senate to read the Constitution.

Top administration and White House officials -- including Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales, Solicitor General Theodore Olson and White House Counsel Harriet Miers, President Bush's longtime adviser and former personal lawyer -- are involved in the early process, according to several sources close to the White House. Send Alberto Gonzales out on a pizza or donut run. Better yet, have him go catch some terrorists.
Let Ted Olson choose the judges. I trust him.

I'm all for a recess appointment for someone like Bork, but wouldn't Bush have to wait for an actual recess before making a recess appointment?
To: SmithL
Fabulous comment. Wouldn't be a great kick in the teeth to those ignorant donkeys?! Let's start a "WE WANT BORK" email, fax and phoning campaign to the White House!
Ronaldus Magnus will be smiling down, giving a thumbs UP to Dubya for doing him such an honor!

Bork would be a great choice, but he is entirely too old now. We need someone like Bork who is years and years younger to be able to impact decisions for many years to come. A long lasting impact is of great importance.

Since you lost out on being Pope, here's an open gig for you. You get to flirt with Ruthie but you'll have to bring your own bathrobe since all they supply is basic black. If you need more dinero you get off early and can deliver pizza at night. Lazamataz for Chief Justice!

If Spector and Hagel vote against the nuclear option Harry Reid, Schumer, and Ted Kennedy will have all the power to approve what judges are acceptable. And Reid said Bush should pick a Souter.
A Schumer staffer was quoted as saying McConnell would be unacceptable along with edith jones and the other 5 names floated around. They are too conservative for Chuckie even though they would be replacing a conservative like Rehnquist.
That traitor Spector is the worst of the worst.

If Bork were put in via a recess appointment, his age wouldn't be a factor, as such an appointment is only temporary.
To: PeoplesRepublicOfWashington
Would Bork, once there, be able to be ousted by the Senate if Dubya insists on sending nothing but more hardballs to the Senate that the Senate refuses to get unfilibustered about? I'd think that if 40 Pubbies have enough of a spine they could turn a filibuster around the other way.

"Captain America" aka.Judge Roy S.Moore.Would be my choice for Chief Justice of the US S.Ct. But Bush prefers appeasement to doing what is right. And has chosen the
compromised Catholic Wm.Pryor over the controversial Captain
America.
