Harriet Miers
Well, let's wait and see. Roberts is fantastic. The son is not the father.
As am I.
You got that right. Knee jerk whining just like a bunch of liberals.
It may be hysteria, but understandable. Many have been posters here for for 4 or 5 years, some longer. Conservatives can be whiners too, especially when their leaders disappoint them.
I'LL NEVER VOTE FOR GEORGE W. BUSH FOR PRESIDENT AGAIN!
I'll be having grilled cheese for lunch.
Your right. No one gives a rats behind.
ROFL! ME NEITHER!!!!!
No, now is the time for good Freepers to find out how to be primary delegates, how to be instrumental in primaries to knock out the Rinos.
Third parties are a waste of time until the democrats are eliminated. As long as the democrats exist the republicans can nominate rinos.
Ok than ;0)
Sorry -- wrong Exodus:
"Exodus is both a challenging and gratifying ministry that seeks to encourage ex-offenders, to reunite them with their families, and to empower them to become self-sustaining, productive, Christ-centered members of society. Individuals are needed to help in the Exodus offices to serve as Bible Study leaders, computer instructors, and tutors/mentors. Professional experts, such as doctors, dentists and lawyers, are welcome at Exodus to help with both guidance and more immediate needs."
Again with the age! How old is a generation to you?
See how many 80 yo leaders we have -- and with medicine going the way it is, this will only be extended. Justices don't retire at 65.
There are 40 year old idiots and turncoats, there are 40 year olds who drop dead from heart attacks. If she were in her mid-to-late 70s, maybe we'd have cause for concern over her age. I think there is enough cause for concern for other reasons -- age isn't the foremost!
From the time of the Carter administration to the Clinton administration, I had gone 180 degrees on abortion rights among other things.
It does happen. And it happens to a lot of us. Just the proper Churchillian development...liberal youth, growing conservativism with age, experience, and wisdom.
"Just the fact that she's a CHRISTIAN (gasp) is enough to send them over the edge. First a CATHOLIC now THIS????"
No, it is because Exodus believes homosexuals and be changed by the transforming power of Christ!
That is why MSM will go ballistic.
I call myself a conservative because I AM a conservative.......and have been for a whole lot of years.
And I call you a newbie, who could just might be a DU troll....
The base seemed fine with Bush 41. I can't swear to it, but i think he was pro choice. I'm pretty sure Barbra was. I think some of the extreme Bush bashing coming from the left and the media is beginning to brainwash some of our own. It seems no one knows anything about this woman but are immediately thinking the worst about her. President Bush has pulled the rug out from under the Dems before. I think he may be doing it again. I'd say he knows her better than we do. The only thing they have on Ms. Miers is the fact she contributed to a prolife candidate 17 years ago. Good grief, I voted for Clinton in 92 but today I am a card carrying Republican who wouldn't dream of voting Democrat. Unless its Zell, of course.
LOL, literally! Well, I do have an open mind. The hearings will be interesting. ;)
I just don't GET IT??????????
Well, you can see the political logic - criminalizing the behavior of around 40% of female voters - most of them otherwise law abiding citizens - is probably not an attractive move from the perspective of someone like Karl Rove. The party likely cant attract a much higher percentage of male voters than it already does, it needs to hold and increase the minority of women who now vote Republican to insure its current position as a bare majority party.
OTOH "social conservative" issues are not high on the priority list of the Corporatist side of the party, several major business groups announced this spring that they were not going to expend political capital on such efforts.
And probably, the logic is correct if Meirs and Roberts do turn of to be only modestly social conservative most people here will probably vent a bit, and then turn around and vote Republican.
Thanks for the info.
I have a feeling that short of a nominee performing an abortion in front of the Senate Judiciary Committee, Planned Parenthood would be against said nominee.
