Dems Leak Bush's Court Short List
Top Senate Democrats floated the names of potential candidates for the Supreme Court on Tuesday in a meeting with President Bush, describing them as...

Get ready to be lectured by those who think they are wiser and smarter than you...:) Please know that MOST Freepers WILL not lecture you...... And please, people, I am a life-long Republican, NEVER voted for a Democrat in my life....so I do not need any lectures.
I heard they were still looking over the long list. This must be the dem's wish list.
As soon as you remind why Bush earned that comment.
I see nothing to suggest Bush has compromised his promises.
Precisely.
It's interesting to see who takes the bait.
Can you not for once refrain from posting stupid pictures on a thread? It makes is so slow for dial-up.....gosh, Howlin, get a life!
Newsmax, trying hard to be credible. This article has nothing to do with Bush's possible nominees, only with the dem's wishes who they want on the court. Sheesh, newsmax, becoming as credible as worldnetdaily......
I wouldn't have worked for Kerry, and I wouldn't have had any good expectations about his candidates.
Because you didn't read the article? It's a dem wish list.
Can you not for once resist jumping from thread to thread, lecturing people about how they should and shouldn't post?
Scratch these names from the list, if they were ever on it.
Bush is no fool. Any name suggested by Democrats is radioactive.
Todays developements make me damn proud to not have ever voted for a dim, never will vote for a dim and I will fight for the future for my grandson, and sons. With this new way of doing politics, the left has engaged in, I am more determined than ever to stand up for my party.
I even donated again to FR!!!!
How many hours did you spend pounding the pavement for Bush? That said, this may all be Dem hype. I'm hoping.
Here's my post on another thread on this subject:
The President of the United States would do well to use his time reviewing the writings of America's Founders, its first few Presidents, and THE FEDERALIST, the series of 85 essays published in NY newspapers and written by James Madison, Alexander Hamilton, and John Jay as expositions of the meaning and intent of the Constitution. A two-volume edition was published in 1788 for use in the ratification process in the other states.
According to Thomas Jefferson's record of an 1825 meeting of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia, the Board directed use of the 85 essays as the text for its law school in studies of "the general principles of liberty and the rights of man."
Jefferson's minutes stated, "The Federalist constitute and authority to which appeal is habitually made by all, and rarely declined or denied by any as evidencee of the general opinion of those who framed, and of those who accepted the Constitution of the U. S., on questions as to its genuine meaning."
For many decades, they were used as the basis for study in schools across America as a means of enlightening the minds of citizens on their Constitution.
America's ideas of liberty are under attack from without, and worse, from within, by those who would deny the Constitution's basis in the philosophy of the Declaration of Independence--Creator-endowed life, liberty, and rights, the foundation that distinguished it from all other constitutions that had ever been written.
Whether or not the ideas survive for posterity may well rest on the momentous decisions this President is about to make.
He does not need to consult his base, nor does he need to consult and compromise with the Left. He does need to consult the words and actions of his noble predecessors, Washington, Adams, Jefferson, Madison, Jay, and others who devised a formula for liberty which is unique in the world. Like them, President George W. Bush will be judged by future generations by his willingness to sacrifice all for the cause of liberty!
Leahy to Reid: "Dang, we leaked the wrong list!"
Last night, NewxMax had a new article up on Rove, copying and pasting from -- tada -- an old NewsMax article!
Way way more hours than I currently care to admit.
How about you refrain from posting to me? Why are you so obsessed with me....? Please, quit posting to me.
Trying to out do Worldnetdaily, I suppose.
