"Show me a speech or written opinion or thesis or something. That's the only thing that would scare me." - bkepley

So, on sheer faith you assume his originalism? That was what was done with the O'Connor, Kennedy, and Souter nominations. In contrast, clear ideological track records were already there for Rhenquist, Scalia, and Thomas. Which group has upheld originalism?

--So, on sheer faith you assume his originalism?--

I have not heard anything that leads me to believe that he will be anything but excellent, I do have sheer faith in GWB's track record. Is this pro-bono work he took what I should base my opinion on? There are instances of Scalia and Thomas disagreeing on important issues. Does that make either one of them a Souter?

--That was what was done with the O'Connor, Kennedy, and Souter--

GWB is not his father or even Reagan who made some pathetic appointments from the get-go.
