"First, given the idealogical makeup of the senate, we may not have the luxury of a nominee who has proved his or her self to both you and I as a strict constructionist."

Look, Bush took no prisoners to get CAFTA and prescription drugs passed. If shipping jobs abroad and forcing me to pay for Teddy Kennedy's Viagra is enough to inspire such action, then judges should be too.

"Thus, most likely, Roberts is not a mystery to the President."

Uh, like when he looked into Putin's soul? Bush - despite some FReepers apparent thoughts to the contrary (not you specifically) - can make mistakes.

Bush took no prisoners on CAFTA and PD? More likely, Bush simply had the votes. (BTW, CAFTA good -- PD bad)

Uh-um, do you actually know the level of sincerity in Bush's remark about looking in Putin's soul? Perhaps, he really saw what a insincere _bag Putin was and was laying it on just as thick. If one looks at Bush's policies since that remark and subsequently since Putin's return to old Soviet form, it would be hard not to feel that Bush never trusted Putin one -- bit.
