The analytical framework by which a Senate Democrat determines support for a judicial nominee is simply whether he supports, with sufficient zeal, the political agenda of the Democratic Party. If not, it matters not how much prior experience the nominee has as a judge, nor how distinguished his career has been; he is just not acceptable. This hadn't even occurred to me, but it is the absolute truth.

What's funny about the Dems voting against Roberts to assuage their base is that it will backfire. Roberts' temperament and intellect were so much in contrast with the Dems that he made them look petty and frankly, pitiful.
My folks, who are Bush hating aficionados, love Roberts. He did more in those hearings to illustrate the absurdity of modern day Democrats than family discussions, editorials, et. al. could ever do.
I suspect the mask has finally come off the modern day Democrats for many of the JFK Democrats who now see them in the appropriate light.

Justice Ginsburg was kind enough to give us some insight into what she thinks important in a nominee. She would exclude those "who would not advance human rights or women's rights." Justice Ginsburg is coming close to violating the separation of powers, and the alleged non-partisan natur eof the Supreme Court. Should she cross the line of partisanship, that should be an impeachable offense.

Yes it is the truth. We as Republicans are fooling ourselves by insisting that the selection of a SC justice should be non-partisan. It is deeply partisan. The Democrats have made it so, and its time Republicans countered.

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has announced that while she does not like being the only female on the Court, just "any woman will not do" to replace retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. The easiest solution, if Ginsburg is uncomfortable, is to retire.

Justice Ginsburg fumed, "I have a list of highly qualified women, but the president has not consulted me." Ummmm.....Let me guess, Ruth.
Every single one of those "highly qualified women" is a liberal.
Am I right or am I right?
When a liberal President is in the White House again, I am sure that he will be very interested in your list.
In the meantime, as the author of the article points out, the Constitution gives Supreme Court Justices ZERO, NADA, ZIP, ZILCH role in deciding who will be appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court.

Alas, Joyce R. Brown doesn't make Ginsburg's list.

Calling Ruth a woman is stretching it. Typical liberal woman - butt ugly and angry. She and Cindy Sheehan should have lunch together while Cindy playfully mourns the death of her son.
