Bork is a brilliant man, but he'll be 79 in March.

I was hoping for Bork also (knowing that it would not happen as that would be just TOO just and right for this backward nation of ours).

However, it is horrible for Bush not to nominate Estrada, a great, decent and honorable judge who was Borked. Bush should have drawn the line and nominated Estrada and let the war begin.

Same goes for Pickering.

Not me. Bork is no Constitutionalist, he has taken the position that the 2nd Amendment does not protect an individual right. Ever strict constructionist believes it does, as does anyone who takes "the right of the people to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed" to clearly indicate the intent of the authors.

My dream-judge is Coulter. Not because she's smart, but because she has great hair! [Just kidding. I'd pick Edith Bunker if she were an originalist.]

Bork himself said he doesn't want the job. He's too old, and he's got health problems of his own.
