The left would destroy itself trying to destroy JRB or her nomination.

I agree, and the MSM will have a very hard time explaining to African American Joe six-pack why those Eastern white men are mean to that woman on TV. JRB's nomination would be the equivalent to Reagan's "Mr Gorbachov, tear down this wall". Unfortunately, "W" does not have Reagan's sense of history and timing. (sigh)

You mean like at Brandenburg where he refered to the graves of Nazi SS Concentration Camps guards as continining "those who were also victiums of the war"

Please can we grow up? This defication of Reagan is nonsense. He was a great man. But he was a man, not a god. He had his days of missed pitches too.

This really is the question of the moment. Will GWB break from the east coast establishment he is surrounded by and nominate a maverick such as JRB, or will he stick with an establishment type like he did with Roberts? I think he heard his base, but we will soon see.

Amen. I am so sick of these wimpy people afraid of their own shadow and refuse to fight. These are the same people who wanted Meirs shoved down our throats and are now still wimpering at the thought of a good ole brawl.

Screw em. Its time to fight and those not up to it should just STFU and let the big boys take over for once.

Never happen. Magazines like Jett and Ebony would come out against JRB, as would a host of rappers. Rogers would become as persona non grata to the black community as Clarence Thomas is.
