Such extremist tactics are especially ironic from those who have tried to portray Justice Brown as an "extremist" right-winger who would be dangerous on the federal bench. The fact that Justice Brown received a 76 percent vote of approval from California voters in an election to confirm her appointment to the state Supreme Court hardly fits the label that Senator Schumer and other liberal Democrats are trying to pin on her.

I watched about five minutes of Chuckie on C-Span last night before just having to change the channel. This guy is so blatant in his desire for activist Judges - those who see the Constitution as a "living document" in the light of current cultural thinking, I just wanted to puke.

Despite the candidate's getting 76% of CA vote - a state not known for it's Republican voters or for issues "on the right", Chuckie is about to deny Senators the right to vote on this candidate.

I am so sick and tired of the Dims and their obstructionist tactics, I can only hope that the Republicans have some ballistic responses in mind, and that this time, they use them.

To Chuckie, it's OK if we vote and confirm Judges who don't care a hoot for the Constitution, just as long as their precious Roe V Wade stands. They still don't understand how activist and wrong that decision was. The Supremes took a states-right issue, and made a decision on it.

But the way the Dims are going, Pres. Bush isn't going to get any of his candidates on the Appelate Court, for fear of their possibly becoming Supreme Court Judges.

The Senators have forgotten "advise and consent" and I, for one, would like someone to teach them a real lesson on this one.

The Dims have walked up on the scaffold and put the noose around their own necks. I think they're going to pay dearly in the next elections, particularly for their short sighted attitude on Iraq.
