To: Bush 100 Percent
So, you think Bush would appoint another "moderate" if Miers fails? Sometimes, "moderate" seems to be little more than a code word for "person who supports the murder of babies". Seriously - I don't care if he puts someone on the court who thinks that businesses are the source of all the world's evil and global warming is a proven fact - I just can't stand to think that our president would put someone like that on the court.
*sigh*... I guess it's out of our hands. I suppose all we can really do is pray.

I'm not saying that he would appoint a moderate. What I am saying is that even the people with their favorite "solid" candidates don't all agree what kind of SC Justice they will be. She is one that I have heard them urge him to consider, while others have reservations for one reason or another. The short answer is there are no "sure things" and I've heard that at the time, people didn't think of Souter as a moderate but a "sure thing" conservative based on his rulings and writings. That doesn't guarantee much either.

I suppose all we can really do is pray. That's one of the most sensible things I've seen posted here today.
