Hillary Clinton on the Supreme Court (Dr.James Dobson on Hannity and Colmes)
Fox News, Hannity & Colmes | Oct, 14, 2004 | Fox News

Posted on 10/14/2004 6:59:19 PM PDT by The Doctor

Paraphrase: Here's a scenario that keeps me up at night. Suppose Kerry is elected; there are potentially two Supreme Court Justice appointments and Hillary Clinton is looking at eight more years before running for president. Kerry could appoint her as Supreme Court Justice and she could literally rewrite the Constitution.

This is why the Dems will do anything to win, with lawsuits up the proverbial wazoo. Supreme Court = more control longer than the presidency or Congress and without the necessity of being elected.

As long as the Republicans hold onto the House and Senate she'd never be confirmed.

Take a Sominex and sleep. Hillary is the one nominee that the Republicans would invoke the filibuster rule against, if necessary. Ain't never gonna happen.

It won't happen.

Live by the filibuster...die by the filibuster.

I would probably move to Brazil if such a scenario occurred.

Nope, she'd never take it until AFTER she was President.

HOLD IT RIGHT THERE. That's enough to keep me up at night.

It depends on how many of the Republicans in the Senate have embarrassing material in their FBI files which they are afraid that Hillary would leak. If the 'Rats recapture the Senate, or if it is close enough that a couple of RINO Senators would give them a majority, she might be confirmed...but she'd probably rather be President first.

When the radical leftist and feminist activist Ruth Bader Ginsburg was nominated to the Supreme Court in 1993, do you know how many of your Republicans voted against her?

Three.

AND she was not a Senator.

You are dreaming if you think she would not be confirmed.

Well, I suggested that a few months ago.

I mean, think about it. Being the Prez comes with perks, but it's over in 8 years if you are lucky.

Being a Supreme provides access to never ending power.

It's a question of what is perferable. Prestige or Power. My bet is Hill desires power more than she does fielding questions from a press core, as biased toward her as it may be.

She'd have a majority of the vote right off.
At least five Rinos would vote for her.
Snowe would probably sponsor her.

And if you think the media and RINOS are going to let her be filibustered you're dreaming.

I could see her in a high cabinet role.That would be disasterous.If some world leader doesn't agree with her she'll throw an ashtray at him and cuss like a drunken sailor....

Sominex is not just ineffective for real sleep, Freep Sominex may not just be comforting enough. Eight years ago, would the typical Freeper comprehend the 2000 election lawsuits and voting fraud, the WTC towers disintegrating, and gay marriage being endorsed in any state?
