Said O'connor "gave them a great gift by saying she stay on until her replacment was approved."

But they also know that O'Connor's husband is ill and she most likely doesn't want this drawn out. So, Leahy is full of crap as usual.

Breuax trying to define activist as a justice that overturns previous court rulings on the Supreme Court. I guess they would all then be activists, including your beloved O'Connor right John? LOL

So, Leahy is full of crap as usual.

Actualy he's right about what O'connor said.

Dear President Bush,

this is to inform you of my decision to retire from my position as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States, effective upon the nomination and confirmation of my successor. It has been a great privilege indeed to have served as a member of the Court for 24 Terms.

I will leave it with enormous respect for the integrity of the Court and its role under our constitutional structure.

Sincerely,

Sandra Day O'Connor
