Thanks to: Trent "Spineless" Lott.

And Orrin "Neville Chamberlin" Hatch

There's always something that is "too important". I won't be sold a bill of goods anymore. This president is NOT a conservative.

If this president is not the next president the next president WILL be a Liberal.

[capitan_refugio]

The only judicial "appointments" the President can make are when the Senate is in recess, and such an appointment is good only for a limited term. The operative term is "nominate," as per your quotation. The same applies for other officers of the country.

Don't let your screen name influence your posts.

Sorry, the Clinton years of hell all run together... And it's not like DOLE was much better!

if Bork had been confirmed instead of Kennedy, Roe would have been defeated...So it's not all Reagan, the Dem Senate Reagan had to deal with forced his hand.

that's what has me disgusted,
there's no telling what else he would send to the SCOTUS
republican presidents appointed a majority of the current crew and they couldn't get 4 votes to even listen to Silveira and then turn around and ok CFR,

Thanks for the post.

I've about had it with Free Republic these past few weeks. Today was about as bad as I have seen it. Many so-called Republicans are willing to throw away their vote with the reason being "I'll show him". Yeah, go to DU and they'll make you an honorary member.

I strongly disagree with the President on certain issues. Spending is way out of control. However, I do NOT want to see a President Kerry. A recent Opinion Journal article highlighted that the dems are jumping on the Bush's spending at the same time calling on social programs that will dwarf anything Bush has planned. When this country gets attacked again, when are military is cut again, when we must go to the UN for a permission slip, when taxes are raised, when gay marriage is legalized, when abortion laws are strengthened will those same FReeper still be able to say "I'll show you".

Go ahead and bite off your collective noses to spite your collective long faces.

George HW Bush gave us nothing. Every last one of the Perot voters knew the consequences of voting for Perot. They knew that they were giving the White House, the House, and the Senate to the Democrats. They had the choice between a moderate and a liberal. They chose they liberal. They gave us Whitewater and Monica. Clinton is nothing but their fault.

[StoneColdGOP]

They're both piles of manure.

Sellouts all.

[votelife]

lovin' it! Then say, "add 4 more years to those ages."

[gnarledmaw]

"I feel many conservatives are missing the big picture..."

Unfortunately, we do see the big picture. Bush is a socialist. The supreme court hoax was pulled on us the last time around and some arent going to fall for it again.

[WinOne4TheGipper]

None of them were nominated to the SCOTUS, but it is clearly Bush's intention that at least some of them do when the ones currently there croak or retire.

[EggsAckley]

Here's my analogy.

You're hungry, very hungry. You are offered two choices, a thin and watery soup, and a hamburger patty. But what you really want is a T-Bone steak. You really really want that.

Do you turn down the hamburger and go with the terrible soup, simply because the "meat" was not as good as what you wanted?

[longtermmemmory]

true, but would you rather have a good pick gone bad or a bad pick (lonni guenier) from the get go.

Scalia was a good pick.
Renquist was a good pick.
Thomas was a good pick.

1. what do you think Bush could have done to get Estrada confirmed?

2. assuming your strategy worked, how do you think it would have played in the media, ie would the trouble have been worth it for an appeals court nominee?

[CMAC51]

Oh, he'll nominate them, all right; his Federal judge picks (Estrada, Pickering, Rogers Brown, etc.) have been very impressive. But unless he can put the squeeze on Frist and Hatch to actually DO something about getting them confirmed, Leaky Leahy and Co. will make sure they never get confirmed.

The Republicans were highly exposed in the last Senatorial campaign and pulled it out thanks in large part to the judge issue. The Dems are highly exposed this time. If one or two of them fall because of the judge issue, the blockade will break whether the Repub's get 60 or not. The Dems know they are exposed again in '06.

Thune beating Daschle is tremendously important.

[NeoCaveman]

They had the choice between a moderate and a liberal.

Moderates and liberals a distinction without a difference.

If Cliton hadn't been a sleaze and a liar, what would have been the diffrence in the canidates?

[Kryptonite]

Two reasons to vote Bush - (1) the courts (2) the terrorists.

That's what it boils down to....

Good vanity!

He doesn't think the 2nd ammendment 'confers' and individual right.
