Man oh man, are you ever wrong! I voted for a conservative and got a moderate liberal.

I don't support any party, but I do vote republican more often than not because the dems have an ultra-left element that scares the crap outta me.

It's not all the Presidents fault, the Republican congress has just spit and sputtered the whole time they've been in control.

Watch how the liberals work when they regain control. They are very good at the way they play politics. They know how to push their agenda, the hell with compromise.

How soon we all forget. When the Dem's were in control, they made the Republicans life miserable.

Since we only have your word for how politically "active " ( which wasn't the operative word )you are, pumpkin, that doesn't make it factual.

Valley girl, are you? "That's like the purpose of this forum................." bespoke someone without the command of good English.

And the purpose of this forum is stated on the front page. I suggest that you familiarize yourself with the stated objectives of FR.

I want political naifs to stop pretending to be "experts" and spewing all kinds of banal, inane "feelings" all over the place. That's what I would like to have FIRST!

Next, I would like you and your ilk to realize that Conservatives/Republicans can NOT undo almost 100 years of Liberal lunacy in the twinkling of an eye.

And finally, I would really, really, REALLY like the weak kneed and spineless gutless GOP wonders in both Houses to stop acting like whipped animals.

Thanks for asking what I want. :-)

How you figure I'm incorrect. I just stated the very same thing. It's not all the Presidents fault, it's the weak kneed Republican Congress as well.

Let me guess, your a wanna be attorney for the CATO Institute. I am so very impressed at your command of the issues.

You seem to be full of criticism and shy on position. Stand for something man, stand for something!

Are you using a cracked crystal, shredded tarot cards, or just pulling that garbage out of where the sun doesn't shine?

Never wanted to be, nor am I a lawyer.

The CATO Institute is Libertarian and I hate Libertarians.

And as to being "unimpressed", dear, you are about as impressive as a drunk slug.

I take stand on lots of things. I have stated my position on this topic; however that tinfoil is wrapped far too tightly about your head and the blinkers don't help you much either; Kreskin.

Chill Out! You have a chain a mile long and rather easy to tug if I might be so bold.

Don't take all this so personal--sweetie!

And no, I have no crack, but I'd be glad to lend you a couple of tranquilizers. Drink a beer with'em and relax.

>> If I hear "I Trust Him" one more time as the sole qualifier for this nominee I think I am going to puke. <<

You should see the Pirro threads. Her apologists SOLE reason for how she can "beat Hillary" and "bloody Hillary up" in ulta-Democrat NY is that she "looks nice" on TV.

I don't think I've ever read where [Thomas has] written the majority opinion on any case that came before the USSC.

You kidding? He writes about 7-9 majority opinions per year--same as all the other Justices.

Frankly, I "Google'd" for some information on majority opinions, read some judicial sites like FindLaw and several law school sites that archive USSC documents, the USSC blog, and Clarence Thomas has only one to his credit.

Pirro is a tough DA with a record to debate. Plus, Senator is not a lifetime appointment.

I hope Meirs turns out to be great, but I am not comfortable taking the risk when so much is at stake and boiling it down to GWB playing Texas Hold'em or some other silly analogy.
