Hogwash!

Unlike Reagan w/ Souter, Bush has worked with Gonzales for years and years BEFORE he was president and probably knows him very well, far far better than Reagan knew Souter. If you don't trust Bush to make the correct decision on this, why did you vote for him and thus trust him to make other decisions as president (assuming you did vote for him)?

Agree. I also think many should stop with the defeatist / negative comments / thoughts - Let's allow GWB to pick his man before all this -

My opinion, but thanks for the kind word.

Bush has worked with Gonzales for years and years BEFORE he was president and probably knows him very well, far far better than Reagan knew Souter.

Your opinion. If you don't trust Bush to make the correct decision on this, why did you vote for him and thus trust him to make other decisions as president

He was the better choice. That does not mean a march in lock step with him, or anyone. I am a free man, entitled to state my opinion and voice my objections.

(assuming you did vote for him)?

Assume what you want. I am an American citizen. I'm sitting in a wheelchair right now, because I felt strongly enough to join the Army and defend the Constitution and my country (and you).

So, feel FREE to voice your opinion as to my motivation all you want.

Because he promised us conservatives on the bench. If he appoints Gonzales then he will have lied to us. How difficult is this to understand?

FWIW, Reagan didn't appoint Souter, Pres. Bush (the Elder) did...
