The point is that without the votes of these RINOs we would have neither Alito nor Thomas sitting on the Supreme Court. This means that they are preferable to Democrats, who cannot be counted on to vote for any constructionist at any time.

The RINOs stood on principle in these votes. Some of them were castigated mightily for their votes by their constituents.

The Democrats who voted for these justices did so because they stuck their fingers into the wind, took polls and reacted to phone calls.

This is further evidence of the importance of voting Republican at all costs in November.

Make haste from Rio Linda.

That's a very weak point, considering that the first two were party line votes, and Roberts got about half the 'Rat votes. Sure, if those seats were held by communist 'rats, the vote would probably have gone the other way. But communist 'rat isn't the only alternative to socialist RINO. Until folks like you realise that, though, we're going to be awash in socialist RINOS.

What principle? The RINOS followed party discipline.

Oh, really? more likely they just didn't feel like fighting a losing battle.

All costs? Even at the cost of electing a self-so-called "republican" who's indistinguishable from a 'Rat? No, thanks. Spare me the bogey-man argument. I don't buy it any more.

Make haste from Rio Linda.

There you go again with the personal insults. And you were doing so well, there. Looks like the effort made your head explode.

Pity.
