Remarkably, her judicial philosophy puts her even further to the right than the most far-right justices now sitting on the U.S. Supreme Court, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas.

In August, People For the American Way and the NAACP released a joint report opposing Brown's confirmation. In recent weeks, her nomination has met increasing opposition, both in her home state and nationally, from groups including the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights, the Alliance for Justice, AFL-CIO, Alliance for Retired Americans, Americans for Democratic Action, Feminist Majority, NAACP Legal Defense & Educational Fund, Inc., NARAL Pro-Choice America, National Bar Association, National Council of Jewish Women, National Organization for Women, National Senior Citizens Law Center, National Women's Law Center, Natural Resources Defense Council, Planned Parenthood, Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice, and the Sierra Club. Brown's confirmation hearing in the Senate Judiciary Committee has been scheduled for Wednesday, October 22.

You can tell a lot about a person by who their enemies are.

And this says that she's the right one at the right time.

And this time, NO MERCY on the Leftist loonies.

One is known by one's enemies, as by one's friends. The organizations who came out against confirmation of Judge Brown to the US Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit are the heart of the Democrat machine. And they represent less than half of the electorate, and far less than half of the Senators.

As Sun Tsu correctly observed, the time to attack is when your enemy is weak. That list of organizations is currently week. Time to attack them with a judicially conservative nominee. Methinks.
