RNC Chairman Ken Mehlman Statement On The Retirement Of Justice Sandra Day O'Connor

Republican National Committee ^ | July 1, 2005

Ken Mehlman is about the biggest partisan dork in Washington.

Ken-- don't worry about "urging the democrats" but instead urge the Republicans to start acting like the majority party and stop compromising with the minority party (remember John Bolton?). I have refrained contributing any money to the RNC until the Republicans grow a spine. Here is their chance at redemption.

I would think that Bush would have to be a Conservative in the first place to actually put a "real" Conservative on the court.

[Sweetjustusnow]

Good luck on that one. In his speech about the judges annouced retirement he says he will look for a replacement that can "interpret" the Constitution. A true Constructionist actually just boils down to a judge who will actually "uphold" the Constitution and rule of law. Not "interpret it". The Constitution reads as it reads. There are no "hidden messages" in the Constitution for these "great magic sages" to "interpret".

He's appointed a couple hundred judges already. How many of them did you oppose?

How many appointments does one have to make before he has a track record that can be judged?

It must be nice to rise to the level where people have to say nice things about you...even when you are, for the most part, an utter disappointment.

LOL! That's the truth! Sort of like a bad boss.

[Antoninus]

I was hoping for "Good riddance to bad rubbish" myself...

Over the past twenty-four years, her contributions to the nation's highest court will be remembered for her thoughtful, well-reasoned rulings on the difficult issues of the day.

He shouldn't lie like that. More often than not she's made rulings worthy of any embittered leftist lesbian hag

John Ashcroft for Supreme Court!

and approach any nominee with the unbiased evaluation they deserve."

Ha!!!!!!!!

Mehlman calls the radical leftist O'Connor's rulings "thoughtful, well-reasoned rulings

then asks that the RATs approach any nominee with the unbiased evaluation . . ."

LOL!

The Republican'ts--who needs the Comedy Channel when we have the RNC!

That is almost as good as this one:

"And then, of course, there's Senator Edward Kennedy. And the folks at the Crawford Coffee Shop -- (laughter) -- would be somewhat shocked when I told them I actually like the fellow. (Laughter and applause.) He is a fabulous United States senator.

-- President George Bush, Jan. 8, 2002

ROTFLMAO!

Our nations needs some real, HONEST conservatives in office. Otherwise, we will continue moving into leftist land and Warp Factor 9.

BUMP your comments, and see post #29.

You are both right on target.

What's Howard's take on this?

[Abram]

Howard: "Duh"! "ARGHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!"

The original Screamy-Deany

[mukraker]

Time to take the gloves off when dealing with the rats.

They're going to fight anyone President Bush nominates, short of Hillary. And they might even say she's become too conservative for their tastes. Even Teddy K called O'Connor "a mainstream conservative."

Sorry, I should have warned you not to read this on a full stomach.

Yep, and we know he's not one. It's not going to be a Conservative now that he's having to ask the RATS who they want. :( Thanks to the traitorous 7 who cut a deal with the Devil/RATS.
