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.

Let's hope you are right. They seem pretty friendly to her in the Senate.

No, if F'n should steal this election, he would be the nominee in 4 years so the socialist witch would have to wait 8 years to run.

Dr. Dobson is one smart person.

He knows exactly why the Cheneys gay daughter issue come up.

He also knows that the religious right in this country will NOT be happy about it and become disillusioned about going to the polls

The one thing that will take a conservative and make them a broken glass voter:

Hillary Clinton on the Supreme Court.?

Nightmare scenario.

The good doctor knows how to play politics.

Scenario is very real, friends.

1) Not a chance in hell we hold the Republican caucus together to filibuster anything, much less a judicial/Supreme Court nominee.

2) Arlen Specter will be chairman of the Judiciary Committee in January. Sigh. That is, if we hold the Senate.

3) If the filibuster is unconstitutional for them (as our folks have been claiming for 3 years now) then it is unconstitutional for us.

4) Two words: recess appointment. Yes, Supreme Court justices have been recess appointed. While it isn't permanent, Mz. Clinton could do a heck of a lot of damage while being put through the nominations gristmill.

Trust me on this, it could happen.

Whatever one's feelings, it comes down to about ten Republican Senators being unable or unwilling to resist the media onslought behind her.

If not clearly a certainty now, it's undoubtedly within reach.

The Dims only have to threaten a filibuster. The republicans would be required to carry it out.

Well, that sends a shiver down my spine even colder than Hillary for President.

She [Ginsburg] wasn't Hillary Clinton.

Exactly. And Kerry isn't Bill Clinton.

No way she'd be nominated either. It's a clever scare tactic though!

Never forget...1000 FBI files!!!! I would hope the American people would not stand for this, but then again, I didn't think Bill would be elected to a second term either.

Exactly what I was thinking.

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

1st Lady

Senator from NY

Seat on the Bench

Sounds like a real strategy to cover the Executive, Legislative, and Judicial.

Don't underestimate the political will of 50% of Americans that think she is a viable candidate for President in 2008.

It doesn't get any sKerry'er

My one, consistent prayer for the Clintons ...

That the Lord would render the Clintons, and ALL their minions, totally powerless and nameless and faceless and useless and homeless and penniless, and that He would strip them bare before the world, such is their evil, leaving only their immortal souls, and it is for these souls I pray ...

- and the question of the huge number of FBI files Hillary likely still has - - - remember the extreme hesitancy of the Senate to remove Bill from the Presidency after impeachment? I thought they just flat messed over Henry Hyde and the House, and one might ask, were they afraid of what skeletons in closets B&H would open to public view? or were they really so concerned that "the country not be subjected to the "shame" of a President being removed from office? I think for one thing, they were still covering for Strom Thurmond and probably others, or at least the unknown factors and not really knowing for sure what she had. Ironically, it wasn't long before everyone knew about Thurmond anyway, and seeing how staunchly conservative his black family was just really piqued the Democrats. When his black great grandson (a doctor) was interviewed, the lib media guy asked him to explain why he wasn't a lib and he replied, "Just good genes, I guess." None of them would say one bad thing that I heard about Thurmond and respected him immensely.

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

It think it's very likely. For weeks I've been telling "undecideds" to conisder 4 little words:
JUSTICE. Hillary. Rodham. Clinton.

If Kerry wins, Hill's prez chances are pretty slim. Kerry wouldn't want her stealing his thunder in the Senate. So he nominates her for the court. I think she would jump at the chance....she certainly can't relish hanging around the senate for 9 more years.

The media goes into total swoon mode, drumming up sympathy among the public: The woman scorned who stood by her man. At least a million women join a march on the capitol. Republicans would be excoriated if they voted down her nomination, perhaps losing the house and senate in the next election.

It's a win/win for Kerry. And I think it's exactly what he would do.

And even if they don't, we can now use the Democrat tactic of filabustering all nominees. Thanks for the tip!
