Douglas Ginsberg, nominated by Ronald Reagan after Bork was NOT confirmed, withdrew before his confirmation hearings.

Where do you get this notion, that a withdrawal is the same as a filibuster and therefore not conservative? You are wrong on both counts. Withdrawing a nominee has nothing to do with ideology, either Liberal or conservative and is not unconstitutional.

Douglas Ginsberg

I'm not talking about him. I'm talking about Ruth Bader Ginsberg. Geez, get with it.

Beats me. Because that's not what I said either. I said this attempt to get her to withdraw by the likes of you is tantamount to filibustering this nominee, because she would not have had her hearing, which for some odd reason all of a sudden, your vehemonently opposed to.

Withdrawing a nominee has nothing to do with ideology, either Liberal or conservative and is not unconstitutional.

My point exactly. But you alone have painted yourself into that corner of making it political.

It's GINSBURG, and he withdrew after it was made public that he smoked MJ in college. Oh the horrors.
