What bothers me is that it looks like she stuck to the dems while the dems were in power, then when the pubbies started gaining control ion TX she switched to the winning side. It sounds more like opprotunism than ideological change of heart.
And that's good? Sounds scary to me.
Reagan switched during the Goldwater era because he seen what his party was turning into. Reagan agreed with Goldwater and the direction he wanted to take America. This was in 1964. The 1968 Democratic National Convention then proved to the world their radical anti-American agenda.
Considering the political donations given during the late 80's, this nominee apparently was still a DemonRat while Reagan was President. There is no way I can support this Supreme Court nominee.
What difference does it make if she is a "Republican."
So is Lincoln Chaffey and John McCain.
I am a conservative first, a Republican only so long as the party is conservative.
Is this nominee a conservative?
Harriet may have had an awakening.
By the time Reagan became the Republican President and icon he is, he had an undeniable track record.
Miers has no such thing.
In comparison to what we had an opportunity to place on SCOTUS, this choice is a disaster.
in 1987 & 1988. And Reagan used to vote Democrat too. What does this have to do with the price of tea in China. She's been straight Rep ever since.
I agree. So was Laura Bush at one time. Some on here are lou lous.
Good point, Blogger.
If she was a Dem in the 1980s, but then supported Repubs later, it indicates she is not on the same philosphical plane as Reagan type Republicans and her Republicanism runs as deep as the Bushes which isn't very deep at all.
But where is the link to indicate she was once a Democrat and supported Dems?
