Glad he got confirmed despite one of my Texas senators voting against him. Grr--!
Thanks for the update.
Here's the take on him from a liberal source, the Alliance for Justice:
"Throughout his career, J. Leon Holmes has actively worked to undermine a woman's right to reproductive choice. His zealous advocacy for doing away with such a fundamental right, along with extreme statements he has made about the separation of church and state, gay rights, and gender equality, raises serious questions about his fitness for a lifetime appointment to the federal bench."
Sounds good to me.
How did Kerry vote -- or was he too busy?
How did the Breck girl vote?
Scottish Law MacSpecter must not have gotten the RINOs lined up behind him on this one. And shame on Hutchinson. Unbelievable.
Good the Johns were probably out holding hands and kissing each other on their first date. So they missed the vote.
Fox reported that the 2 Johns did not vote.
About bloody time we got one through.. he sounds like the right man for the job too....
all the Freepers who were on Bush about the trade of no recess for 25 nominations, well this was one of the 25. So that's a win for W!
The Dem Ayes are in Red States, the Rep Nos are in Blue states. It's pretty simple.
It was gettting nasty in the Senate yesterday.
Wow, I didn't know it was so close!
What I want to know is why are so many of Bush's appointments not appointed yet?
