Naming Rehnquist's former SCOTUS clerk to the SCOTUS to join Rehnquist himself...must have added a year of life into Rehnquist's account.

a home run, my ass... try GRAND SLAM!!!
fair enough
I think he was confirmed to the court he's on now unanimously. That shoudl give conservatives pause about how reliable he is.
I'd prefer he answer Roe, Lawrence and Kelo.
With this nomination, President Bush has given to the left-wing moonbats all of the rope with which they will use to hang themselves. Go for it Chuck Schumer, Ted Kennedy, Dick Durbin. I'll just sit back and laugh.
Bush made a shrewd choice, and I think he'll be confirmed with less fuss than many predicted.
Chuckie Schumer claims to have voted against him.
*****make it hard for any except the most extreme ideolouges to oppose him. Here's his bio,*****
Well Hugh about 40 Senators who are extreme idealogues:
Wait make that idiots:
are about to fire up on Judge Roberts tomorrow morning. You can bet the farm Harry Reid, Fat Ted, and Nancy of the pulled tight face , have their staffs working on the politics of personal destruction all night tonight.

Vintage Chuckie. Vintage adolescent liberalism: "You have to prove your case to me or it doesn't count and oh, by the way, nothing you can say will be sufficient." Take a hike, Chuck.

He just can't do it. It would be a violation of legal ethics as those type cases will come up again before him.
This tidbit of information doesn't bother me. Once the Democrats know that he's going to have a vote, it's often not in their favor to vote against him. Those in swing states have to be especially careful not to appear to be voting against every presidential nominee.
Yeah, I know. :-}
In the Judiciary Committee. For the Confirmation vote they didn't bother with a roll call.
Unworthy until proven worthy.
Based on previous writings and rulings I think he'll be right about all three of those.
Fantastic pick! Bush did not let us down! Grand slam! (Great head fake today by Laura, et al.)
And Scalia was confirmed 98-0... That must mean he is a closet liberal, just waiting to screw us over! [/sarcasm]
Get a life, you moron! I am so tired of all of you who have to go through life just waiting for something bad to happen!
Face it: the president you love to hate did exactly what he said he would do from the beginning - nominated a strong, conservative constitutionalist in the mold of Scalia and Thomas. So go peddle your Bush-hating somewhere else; I am fed up!
