So Edith, when can you start?
That's got to count for something in the post-Katrina political environment.
This is the Judge that got passed over for Souter by 41.
Another Supreme Court nominee?
She is dead on with Dred Scott and it's plausable that Dred Scott was the final straw. The Kansas-Nebraska Act had already superceded the Missouri Compromise and the Union was on the right track. Sure there was a North-South division but the Supreme Court undid years of negotiation. The court could have reached the same conclusion without dismissing the compromises.
G H W B listened to and believed a lot of people who reassured him Suter was a conservative. He has since acknowledged this as a mistake.
I have heard that G W B has his folks meet with the potential nominees different times and in different combinations.
After several of these meetings if they ALL agree the person is conservative and "thinks the Court is heading in the wrong direction" George W. will meet with them.
Several times the interview with W wasn't up to par and that person was taken off or moved down the list.
He learned from his Dad's mistakes.
She's been on Republican short lists since GHWB

"This is the Judge that got passed over for Souter by 41."
ACK!!!!!
Not stealing or killing are the easy commandments - every religion has those. The problem is the other eight seem to be more and more forgotten. The whole of our commercial society seems based around getting people to covet anything they don't have. And you don't have to look any further than our esteemed government to see the life of those who bear false witness.
For this reason, even this fine judge will be villified by the left and the pansy pubbies. Jerks.
Wow. I'd like to see her I.Q. pointed at Teddy or Biden. Talk about a turkey shoot.
>>Other than some strange interpretation of Libertarianism she's dead on
No such thing as a strange interpretation of Libertarianism -- it's strange to begin with.
She is right about libertarianism--it denies the social compact with complete embracing of only limited govt. and secular laws. Tradition goes down the drain.
vaudine
Then You must not like Janice Rogers Brown. She is the utmost Libertarian.
She is exactly what we need on the court, hope W nominates her.
She is too old. And, too Bork like.
I want to see a modest looking Brown be dragged through mud by the loser Senate Dems.
Bush 41 made three mistakes
Raised Taxes
Left Saddam in charge of Iraq
And passed over Edith for Souter
GWB, aka 43, fixed problems number one and two. Go for the three-for mister president. We got your back.
56 is too old? I guess we need to cross of Janice Rogers Brown, whom you endorse.
