Question: From the perspective of a non judge nominee, what past GOP senators are out there retired but young enough, with a solid legal background, to qualify? The whole concept of the Senate not refusing one of its own could be in play.
I'm thinking of folks like Warren Rudman. Was Nancy Kassebaum pro life? She was from Kansas so one would think so. Or something really avant garde . . . Sam Nunn was a pro Life Democrat and he's retired from the Senate. He still alive?

We'll soon see if Mr. Bush is as good as his words, or if he's just another mouth-trader.
Did you noticed an opinion poll a couple of days ago where over 60% asked wanted the President's nominees to be confirmed by the Senate without any filibustering? Even among likely democrat voters the poll showed a 45 to the low-30s% in favor of a confirmation! Probably the reason for Dingy harry's very low key and "lame duck" mode after he had visited the President!!
Did you learn the trade secrets from hillary's "amazing' success as a cattle traders???

Another one of your silly lies. I voted for him in 2000, but haven't liked him since then. I switched to the Constitution Party because of him.
So what's your business of being here???

What are you talking about?
Here is the sentence again, with translation for the English-impaired inserted:
''The president (that would be 'Mr. Bush') appears to be taking the high road (that would be 'dealing in issues as opposed to partisanship and personalities') vis-a-vis (that would be 'regarding') the Marxists (that would be 'the majority of 'Rat senators, which majority is generally state socialist in its views and its voting').''
Uh, yoohoo -- this sentence very clearly names Mr. Bush's opponents as the communists ('Marxist' is a more accurate term, btw).
Do pls try to read the text as written; it makes the exchange of ideas much easier.

Hmmm....I wouldn't call the President at a time of national security risk an idiot by any means. Careful what you say...
To: jstolzen
If this means "President Hillary" and loss of the Senate, so be it.
I mean..at this point, what is the difference? There ain't much.
Have you read Ed Klein's new book about your voting prospect hillary???

I am listening to conservatives with whom I talk each day. I am talking with hourly workers and retired executives who voice the sentiments that I posted.
Have you heard the president use the bully pulpit of his position to take the need for energy legislation to the people? I think the answer is no. The energy legislation the president says he wants is legislation that will primarily profit oil corporations and do damn little for the citizens of America.
Someone more informed than me will have to determine if oil from Anwar will reach the U.S. or will it be sent to the Orient.

To: jstolzen
I fear that this is what Rove and the other "architects" (I have to cough when I say that) don't realize. And it will be fatal to our party if so.

What happened to "strict constructionalist"? "In the mold of Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas"???
Please show me clearly where and when he changed his mind about NOT chose a nominee like the two above???

I know you don't - not really. Sorry for the argument. It is just that the dangers are so great this time - the cost is too high to dump the Republican party. Such action opens the door wide to total destruction of this nation. Sorry, but most of the old conservatives I know seem to believe the present administration is responsible for more massive socialist programs, more lost liberty, more national debt, more shredding of the Constitution and more flagrant political opportunism that even when the Clintoon was the presidential puppet. Most of them are speaking with a half a century of political experience.

It's going to be "war," trust me!
Bring it on - good time to deploy the "nuclear option" and get this country back on the right path.

The president appears to be taking the high road vis-a-vis the Marxists Maybe you could see... vis-a-vis
1. Compared with.
2. In relation to.
The president appears to be taking the high road "compared with" the Marxists(Sounds funky comparing him to Communists)
The president appears to be taking the high road "In relation to" the Marxists (looks like your saying hes taking the same road the communists take.)
Thanks for the clarification.

The wingnuts are willing to assume the worst before a nominee is even announced. Aty least the French don't surrender until the Germans beat them on the battlefield. The wingnuts will surrender before a shot is fired. Fortunately, success does not depend on these noisy but ultimately irrelevant whiners.
Yeah, and they act exactly like those who are pursuing the non-story of KARL "The Great" ROVE!!!

Mainstream? I think that means Gonzales. nonsense. He would say that about anyone. This is all fiddle faddle He said he would pick someone like Scalia or Thomas. That's good enough for me.

Well - we will have to agree to disagree. The Clinton's Crime Syndicate almost destroyed America and will do so if allowed full power again. It was every day a new outrage, every week a new scandal, every month a new "questionable" death, every year, more treasonous giveaways to Communist China and the globalists who would have long ago passed both the International Court (Bush has fought this) for Americans and the Gloabaloney Warming idiocy. (I realize even Clinton did not get this approved - it was not approved during his era - but we can know that should the Dems get both houses of Congress and the Presidency again - it will be).
Why do you think America is so hated by the French, the Germans, all in the EU (with the exception of some of our British friends and some from Poland and the Czech Republic)? We are hated because this President has resisted the one world Globalist measures as well as the UN garbage.
Look at the Bolton appointment for your globalist analysis. He has nominated probably the one person with the most ferocious "reformer" image to the one truly Globalist Body!
We will have to agree to disagree.
