I didn't realize libs hated Harvard so much. Next time Bush should pick someone who was homeschooled.
To: VisualizeSmallerGovernment
Exactly!
But why leave the race/gender card unused?
Imagine the headlines if Judge Joyce Rogers Brown had been chosen.
Hopefully, we'll see that very soon.

It makes me chuckle each time I look at it.

How refreshing.

Thanks for the LINKS backhoe...If the children at DU are going nuts ( well, nuttier than they usually are... ) that is good enough for me.

You forgot: Pot smoking, long haired, maggot infested, FM DJ type with a "rent-a-mob" crowd of PETA demonstrators to support them.
Oh..... and they're protesting naked.

could open Bush to criticism that he did not do enough for diversity You know, howling like this could be a good set up for Janice Rogers Brown.

Diversity, my ass. To liberals, the only diversity that counts is being of the right race, gender, and sexual orientation. Diversity of ideas is unimportant. After all every one thinks alike. That's what's really counts - being a good liberal.

The old bait and switch. Nope. Ram this one through, and before the white guy howling quits, have Renquist step down and nominate Ms.Brown.
The old double tap, center mass.

Why two
adopted children?
Might this be a line of attack?
How about the fact that they are both blond? A sign of racism?
I'm just trying to think like a Democrat character assassin here.

The nomination is likely to divert attention from the controversy about Karl Rove, the senior White House adviser criticized for identifying CIA operative Valerie Plame to a reporter. Democrats said the timing looked suspicious."It's interesting how the subject has changed," said Senate Democratic leader Harry Reid. The announcement "was going to be next week. Now it's this week."
CHICKA-BOOM, CHICKA-BOOM...doncha just love it...Chicka-Boom, Chicka-Boom...don't YOU just love it...Chicka-Boom, Chicka-Boom-Boom-Boom...!!!
How like the Dems to try to equate their little non-scandal news event with something as momentous as wresting power of the judiciary from their death grip.

Nominees take office immediately after confirmation and being sworn in. Bush has said he wants to have the confirmation before the court's new term begins in October, but O'Connor said in her resignation that she would stay on the job until someone is confirmed. Holding out hope 'til the very end. lol.

Democrats said the timing looked suspicious.It could have been worse. Dubya could have bombed Iraq or invaded Kosovo to take attention off Rove. Oh wait, that's already been done....
To: ABG(anybody but Gore)
LOL! They're so mired in their own motivations and tactics that they can't conceive of anyone doing something without ulterior motives.

re 'Harvard-educated', the fact that he survived with his mind intact hints of great things to come!

The decision to attempt such an ordeal in mental torture and North Korean-style mind control could be the sign of something. Let's hope he doesn't suffer from any flashbacks or post-traumatic stress psychotic events. LOL! [irony]
I take it he's in the "didn't inhale" category...
To: Cincinatus' Wife
"The selection of the Harvard-educated white man in place of O'Connor, the first woman on the nation's highest court, could open Bush to criticism that he did not do enough for diversity."Just HAD to slip in this PC, droolingly liberal editorializing, didn't they.......
How insulting; how utterly insulting....
