In a libs mind (what there is of it), ‘activism is following the Constitution. How dare those judges do that!

they were: activist conservatives intent on leading a judicial counterrevolution.

You say that like that is a bad thing.

One thing I really like about the ‘1/2 Hour News Hour’ is each segment on the ACLU.

I can live with “Not One More Roberts or Alito.” As long as we get a few more like Justice Thomas, or maybe Scalia. But especially Thomas!

He should recess appoint a conservative to serve to the end of the Bush term.

I would pay good money to see Bush appoint Ann Coulter to the SCOTUS, if for no other reason, to watch liberals' heads explode! Plus, we'd have the most amusing judicial decisions to read in history!

Bush could just leave the SCOTUS vacancy open, thus creating a 5-3 majority. Especially viable if a TRUE conservative is likely to be elected in ‘08.

Sounds like E.J. Dionne Jr is a little upset

Hey EJDJ, whatever happened to examining QUALIFICATIONS and not ideology? Why don't you just get it overwith and play the race card now?

So then they are admitting there was a liberal judicial revolution.

They are a pack of liars and lawless thieves who have no remorse, no shame and no credibility.

This is another example of how liberals lied (and lie) about everything and depend upon the amnesia and political fatigue of the American people.

The warped mind E.J. Dionne once again reveals a disgusting lack of character.

Mr. Dionne might be interested to read this passage from Federalist No. 66:

It will be the office of the President to NOMINATE, and, with the advice and consent of the Senate, to APPOINT. There will, of course, be no exertion of CHOICE on the part of the Senate. They may defeat one choice of the Executive, and oblige him to make another; but they cannot themselves CHOOSE, they can only ratify or reject the choice of the President. They might even entertain a preference to some other person, at the very moment they were assenting to the one proposed, because there might be no positive ground of opposition to him; and they could not be sure, if they withheld their assent, that the subsequent nomination would fall upon their own favorite, or upon any other person in their estimation more meritorious than the one rejected. Thus it could hardly happen, that the majority of the Senate would feel any other complacency towards the object of an appointment than such as the appearances of merit might inspire, and the proofs of the want of it destroy.

The Senate should refuse even to hold hearings on Bush's next Supreme Court choice, should a vacancy occur, unless the president reaches agreement with the Senate majority on a mutually acceptable list of nominees.

EJ Dionne is one of those libs who honestly believes that nothing can ever occur without a liberal stamp of approval.

Seeing him on TV, I have to admit, is really odd--it's funny when someone both lisps AND whines at the same time.
