President Bush nominated DC Circuit Court Judge John Roberts to the US Supreme Court. The Feminist Majority, the National Organization for Women, NARAL Pro-Choice America, and the National Abortion Federation all immediately announced their intentions to oppose Roberts for the position.
I am extremely disappointed that the President did not appoint a centrist woman to fill Sandra Day OConnors seat on the Supreme Court, said Eleanor Smeal, president of the Feminist Majority. We are now going back to tokenism for women on the highest court in the land.
Everything we know about Judge Roberts record thus far indicates that he will be a solid vote against womens rights and Roe v. Wade, Smeal continued. If he is to be confirmed by senators who support womens rights, he must say where he stands on Roe and the right to privacy. The burden is on him.

I can't decide if I love or hate Dean. I hate it when I have to hear him spew his bile but I love the effect it has on further marginalizing the democratic party.
I have decided that I will now point to Dean every time a liberal points out to me that Bush is a divider and not a uniter. I think this man may be the most divisive individual in all of politics.
You can't make this stuff up, these people are certifiable.
Oh yeah, Dippy Dean, would find conspiracy in anything Pubby. (real sarc)
... then again, maybe not.
"put his partisanship aside" ~ Have you ever notice how that particular phrase (and concept) finds it's way into a cRat's repertoire only when they are engaged in admonishing Republicans?
100 degrees outside and Christmas is still going strong
Hooboy. Howlin' Howie's been into the cooking sherry again.
Wild Dean!
You like to vent spleen!
You hate everything!
Wild Dean...I think you're out there.
Jeff Gannon, former White House reporter, claimed on his blog, that Justice O'Connor said as much while the two were enjoying their tiramisu and chianti at his apartment.
When Justice O'Connor was asked by this reporter to comment about Gannon's blog, O'Connor would only say that she's never had chianti in her life and only drinks "...single malt Irish whiskey."
Dean: "Democrats take very seriously the responsibility to protect the individual rights of all Americans and are committed to ensuring that ideological judicial activists are not appointed to the Supreme Court."
The right to be disarmed
The right to not be born
The right to be safe (this is one d. finckstein said we had!)
The right of free speach, except political speach before an election.
The right to have our property taken away for the common good of developers
...no wonder I'm right instead of left... on the left the rights are all wrong...
