We can thank George Bush Sr. for appointing the far left liberal David Souter to the Court and Gerald Ford for appointing the same JP Stevens to the Court. They were told at the time that these were horrible appointments and they went forward with them anyway.

"They were told at the time that these were horrible appointments and they went forward with them anyway."

Perhaps, but at least their authority to make them was upheld, which is not the case with President Bush. You think the obstructionists are bad now? Just wait till he tries to make a pro-life appointment to the supreme court.

Well why don't you thank the people for voting for Perot who elected Bill Clinton who appointed Gingsburg and Bryer.

Why is it that Freepers tend not to blame the DemocRATs that appoint their very liberal judges while going after Republicans -- Souter should not have been appointed but he came with high recommendations and was from NH not the liberal States surrounding NH. If you remember right, President Bush also appointed and stood behind Clarence Thomas! Did you forget that fact?

Earl Warren was not a liberal when appointed and look what happened to him. If you want to blame anyone, blame the Clintonites/Perot fools that gave us Clinton and two very liberal judges!
