I can't wait till Stevens retires and Bush is forced to put up a gutless Kennedy/O'Conner-esque moderate because he knows a Democrat Senate will never see a Scalia or Thomas type nominee on the floor for a vote. I wonder how smug and arrogant the cut and run conservative voters will be when that happens and it sinks in that it's ALL THEIR FAULT!!! Was passing on the lesser of two evils worth kissing goodbye the next Supreme Court nomination? Because that's what happened last night. Stevens is 86 and in failing health and will not make it to '08. Ginsburg isn't much better at 74 with a history of cancer. Face it, the conservatives who lost sight of the REAL enemy blew it and blew the chance to make the court really conservative, maybe for a decade or more. That's the reality that some poeple need to swallow. They made this s**t sandwich, when Stevens retires they'll have to eat it!
It's better for your heart and for your soul, to try to see the rainbow, which is that the Democrats will now have 2 years to flock it up beyond all recognition, after which the 2008 elections will be smooth sailing for the good guys!

My, my how you do resemble your profile's "Americans we have an obligation to uphold those Biblical ideals taught by Jesus"! Glad you weren't around in Texas circa 1836 at the Alamo...there a band of between 183-250 "real" patriots held off an opposing army of 6,000 for almost two weeks, in allowing Sam Houston time to win the eventual Battle of San Juacinto! TexasPatriot8 indeed, LMAO! Travis, Bowie and Crockett (none of them Texans incidentally) would have had you shot for cowardice.
