Reid Not Looking For a Fight to Replace O'Connor [Suggests Republican Senator's]

KLAS ^ | July 2, 2005 | Brian Allen

[linkinpunk]

Reid suggested Mel Martinez and Lidsay Graham, probably because he thinks the Dems have strong candidates in FL and SC to run for an open seat in the Senate.

[LS]

Fine. John Kyl.

[johnb838]

HEh heh. Coulter or Levin would be so sweet. But I'd settle for J. Brown or M. Estrada. I'm really hoping it won't be Gonzales as he's too deep into the administration -- would have to recuse himself on too many cases. But then that would only be for the next few years. Please don't let it be "La Raza" Gonzales.

[Dan from Michigan]

puts the Constitution first,

Hanoi "Ban 30-30" Kerry doesn't know what the constitution is.

[Just A Nobody]

“The president has the power to unite the country with a nominee who puts the Constitution first, or divide the country and reshape the court with a nominee outside the ideological mainstream.” "

NOTHING the PRESIDENT does, or will do, will unite the country, because the communist/anti-American/demonRATS will not allow the country to be united.

If we wanted this dolt's opinion he would be in the WH. President Bush has consistently said we need judges that will strictly interpret the Constitution, not legislate from the bench. So, why is he mimicking the PRESIDENT'S own words?

What does this idiot know about the mainstream? He lives in his own world. The only way the communist/anti-American/demonRATS would be happy with President Bush, is if he did exactly as he is instructed to do by the communist/anti-American/demonRATS.

It will finish off the pro-life movement if Bush nominates Gonzales.

It's a sick and troubled society that murders its own baby fetuses.

Destroying society's own progeny is destroying society's own future.

In the long run of human history our children are really all we have that is worth a crap. Our planet will die in another 5 billion years, so even THAT, over time, is time-expendable, that is, doomed to end.
But children CREATE a future, an UNENDING future. In five billion years we can move on to another planet....if there are still children created today.

It's murder and it's wrong. Plato: It's never right to do wrong.

Sorry for the mini-rant here. Couldn't resist.

They were calling J. BRown the personification of evil in the modern world one week, and a distinguished jurist of color the next. They change their stripes the way I change my underwear. Would be no problem for them to change back to calling her the devil.

[jsk10]

so you only change your underwear once per week?

just joshing. :)

[RedEyeJack]

This is hyperbole in that Kerry is attempting to say that his views are part of the ideological mainstream when the record shows that he is far left in his positions (votes). Kerry, et al, cannot be allowed to define the mainstream and then take exception to someone who does not conform to their definition. He can be the judge or he can be the jury, but he can't be both.

I'm thinking that the sucking sound you hear is the mexicans being sucked up to fill the void created by the 50 MILLION babies aborted since Roe v. Wade.

(Remember Stalin: One death is a tragedy, one million deaths is a statistic)

[Jim Noble]

The Dems should handle W's nominees-ultimately there will be four-the same way the Republicans handled Ruth Bader Ginsburg.

[Jim Noble]

Reid went on the record saying he wants the confirmation process to be as free of political warfare as possible

What he means is he wants W to surrender without a fight.

[Seattle Conservative]

I like Kyl a lot, but doesn't he have a Dim Gov who would appoint a Dim senator to replace him? How about John Cornyn from Texas - Rick Perry would appoint a Pubbie.
Jeff Sessions would also be great, but I don't recall who his Gov is for replacement appointment.

[MikefromOhio]

nah I dont think Ann coulter would want to take the paycut :)

[MikefromOhio]

slow down Johnny....it's going to turn out ok. This is going to be a process and its going to take some time....

[uscabjd]

Both Carpo and Martinez would be replaced by Reps.

[MikefromOhio]

well even Michael Jordan blew a slam dunk now and again....

[Loud Mime]

What about Miguel Estrada?

[OldBlondBabe]

HA! I was just telling Mr. Blondbabe at breakfast that Pres. Bush should nominate Ann Coulter!

[shield]

I think we also heard this from Ried regarding BOLTON...this guy and the dimbo rats can't be trusted...1 little bit...they've proven what LIARS they are...so how can we trust anything he says????????????
