[Other title of article- "Democrats Forgo Discord on Court Pick, at Least for Now"
The thread title is from the LA Times web site's front page.]
To use a lawyers briefs or work papers from cases he works on as evidence of his beliefs is to say that all Divorce Lawyers oppose successful marriages.
The Dems are going to try to stall the process any way they can. I bet they try a Bolton and rathar than criticize Roberts directly, they'll demand documents that are naturally presidential privilage.
Headline: Democrats declare "Hudna" on Supreme Court pick.
"Sen. Orrin G. Hatch (R-Utah) said. "I hope they won't play the same cheap old tricks on this."
"
Now there's some wishful thinking.
I think I know.
All you have to do is read some of the postings at the wacko leftist blogger DailyKos and the responses to understand the dilemma for the democratic party. The liberal leftist wacko Dean / Boxer / Kennedy / Schumer / MoveOn.org / Michael Moore / Hillary CLinton blame America wing of their party all want to oppose Judge Roberts no matter what. The 'moderate' democrats in 'red' states up for re-election next year know their political future is on the line when it comes to deciding on whether to participate in being an obstructionist like Daschle. It's going to be fun to watch!
Whether to battle Bush's choice? Ha! That decision was made before Roberts finish law school.
These wouldn't be the same democrats that suggested nominating a sitting Senator or someone outside the judicial system are they?
Another excellent post Cin.
Poll to freep on Roberts:
