Halle - freakin - lujia!!!!
My heart gained back half its spark upon hearing of Miers' withdrawel.
The other half will (hopefully) return when President Bush puts up a solid, take-no-prisoners conservative originalist nominee.
I am already trying to erase this potentially huge GWB initiated mistake from my political memory.
IT's TIME TO GO ON THE OFFENSIVE, MR. PRESIDENT!!!
Not some tepid on your heels selection, either.
I hope you are right but I don't think Bush works that way.
Sounds wonerful, what a bumper sticker. Do you even care if the nomination is confirmed or is it just about "making a point"?
Don't feel sorry for her.
Remember one of her main assets was that she's a good bowler - she's got that going for her.
Oops, I'm sorry I'm being 'petulant' again.
(White Sox win the WS, she withdraws - YES!)
A Mulligan's a "do over" shot in golf. I don't know whether to be happy about this or not. I just hope GW picks an unambiguous constructionist/conservative. If there has to be a knock-down drag-out fight, then so be it. I think it would hurt the Dems worse than us.
I would pay good money to watch her carve T. "The Swimmer" Kennedy up in hearings. : )
The next one... if really a conservative... will take more heat. The dems will make what Miers has taken from our side look like childs play.
This is also a sure sign that Rove will be indicted. This is emergency damage control, taking them one at a time.
But this is the big one, and he wanted us to close our eyes while he rolled the dice.
I don't know .... it wasn't me. I thought she'd end up getting confirmed.
I want a good judge on the Court. Whether they get there by acclimation or bloodbath is immaterial.
But it is heartwarming to see your love of country so beautifully expressed. It must've pained you to no end that Roberts was such a good candidate that no serious person could mount real opposition. Or that you were denied the opportunity to pay the price that is inherent in every fight.
I'm thinkin' you need to read a little Clausewitz. Or Sun-Tzu.
Reid up on CSPAN 2 whining that his nominee pick has withdrawn her name.
I was for hearing her too. She deserved that much.
Thank God. President Bush please nominate a true conservative jurist and while you're at it defend the borders of this country.
Do you really want a person on the court who is acceptable to the democrats? That's the case in a nutshell of why I can barely support the R.P. any longer. They are always willing to moderate 'the plan' to get it through. And generally that 'plan' winds up being a near mirror of democrat policy.
Simply unacceptable! There damn well should be a fight. That's how wars are won, and we're fighting for the existance of this nation in adherence to what the founding fathers vision was.
My favorite. I would love to see Chuckie and Leaky attempt a battle of wits with JRB.
Bill Crystal just said he's SURE there will be indictments tomorrow...and more than one.
