The issue is still that Bush's appointments are heading away from people in the mold of Scalia and Thomas (and Renquist). Who will he nominate as his third pick? Likely someone yet farther to the left.

You really have no idea of knowing whether or not that is true. Thomas was a great unknown when he was nominated. His record was almost as sparse as Meirs and certainly more sparse than Roberts. It was predicted by the folks at National Review that he would perform similar to Souter. Nothing is clear until the judges actually sit on the bench. AND IT NEVER HAS BEEN. Do you think Reagan and Bush I intentionally put weak conservatives (at best) on the court? I don't. Until we verify one of us is clairvoyant, any predictions about what kind of justice Roberts or Miers will be on the court are worth about as much as all the rest of the opinions we post on this site. Not much.

That is a dishonest response

He has appointed over 200 Judges to the bench and they have been anything but left

You may not like Meirs and that is your right

But to say that President Bush only appoints liberals to the court shows me what your agenda is
