President Bush could be quite busy naming people to the US Supreme Court...
Impeach, convict, and never forget.
I think this new FReeper deserves a chance. See reply # 187 here.

So what should it be called when three quarters of the baby is delivered and then you kill her - semi-birth abortion?
Lindsey Graham mentioned the pledge of allegience ruling as an example in the Roberts hearings today. Now, being that some sort of third round is in the works someone can bring this up!
These rulings are just giving Bush the fuel he needs to go super conservative for the next candidate pick!!
Uggg ... once again, these liberals and lesbians, when seen, prove time and time again Rush's theory.
United States District Court Judge Denise Page Hood
Her reputation in the legal community garnered her a nomination to the United States District Court from President Bill Clinton. On June 16, 1994, Hood was officially appointed to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Michigan.
A BIG WELCOME ABOARD! Post #187 is a great way to jump in.
"Right to kill trumps right to life. Only in America."
Or Europe, where abortion is legal pretty much everywhere (only in Italy is it mildly restricted). Then you've got China with forced abortions. And then Africa where I'd bet the death toll actually exceeds the abortion rate. (I can't imagine the official murder rate exceeds the abortion rate here.) Basically, we've got a culture of death all over this world. We've got a lot of work to do.
I wasn't aware that infanticide was constitutional.
Just so long as it is 'private' remember. If someone did this to an infant on a street corner then it would be child abuse of murder. What one can't see isn't real - important rule of the left.
Brown will nerver make it to the SCOTUS, her writings are too controversial. Edith Jones would be good.
its going to take a long time to undo the current mess on the federal judiciary, the next president is really the one who will make or break it - Ginsburg and Stevens will be replaced by the next president. any, and I do means any, republican elected in 2008 is better then seeing Hillary win, for this reason alone.
I have to keep saying this each time the MSM does that little song-and-dance: You never see them dance around the highly inaccurate and misleading term "assault weapons" by reminding the reader that it's only a term used by those who want to ban them, and not used at all by weapons experts. But the perfectly accurate and descriptive term "partial-birth abortion" has to be touched only with gloves and tongs.
I was listening to Dennis Prager today, and he was discussing abortion. In particular, he was talking about the argument that pro-abortion women make about pro-life men: You have never been pregnant, so your opinion is irrelevent.
It occurred to me that a similar argument can be made about the pro-abortion women: You have never been aborted, so your opinion is irrelevent.

But I'm betting it's only in the U.S. where it's enshrined as some sort of constitutional ideal.
No way. The states that elect judges fair even worse. It's by design that judges aren't elected. The founders envisioned 3 branches of government, and one of them, the judiciary would not be beholden to popular opinion, while the remaining two would be.
Right to life is a founding and therefore superceding principle. imho.
After I saw that first post by HHKrepublican, I had to go back to the day I signed up on FR. Something got me so upset, I had to jump on and sign up.
BTW, welcome to FR HHKrepublican
Just as the left and the MSM are starting to chip away at Bush's political capital with their constant lies about Iraq and Katrina, two members of the annointed left-wing judiciary attack the Pledge of Allegiance and a ban on infanticide supported by nearly 90% of the population.
If anything can be used to crystalize what is at stake with Supreme Court nominations it is these decisions. Nothing could have provided better political ammunition for appointing another conservative justice. I hope no babies die in the meantime, but these decisions gave Bush and the republicans all they need to get anyone through the nomination process.
As I have said, the only absolute "right" that the liberals belive in is the absolute right of a woman to murder her unborn.
Someone is going to tell me to not be optimistic. But frankly I think the Democrats are going to have a tough time electing a dog catcher much less a congressman or Senator.
Between the ill placed decisions of some of these activists judges who act outside any known law, the troop bashings and the total lack of any vision except for hate anything traditionally American these guys are running thmeselves out of town on a rail. They don't need any help.
