Good morning once again, all you fellow political junkies. Put on a fresh pot of coffee, put the sticky buns in the oven, put a fresh battery in the remote control, and join us for the latest episode of the world's greatest daytime soap opera, "As the Democrats Bloviate." Yup, once again, it's that time...

We have to get her... will TS get her on the show so Juanita can call in? Would she talk to her though or leave?

That was such a sad but true statement that I thought I would repeat it. It would have been nice if I had made that clear :)

Bring on Janice Rogers Brown next.

If he ambushed her, I doubt that she would ever speak with or come on his show again.

And we may get two more picks...

From your pen to God's eyes!

Of course, the only way we'll get any more picks is if one of the current justices dies. No way are Souter, Ginsburg, etc. going to leave voluntarily. I'm sure the remaining liberals believe they're the bulwark against the encroaching conservative hordes.

Senator George Allen (IMO, the next President of the United States) said the government of New London, CT was "acting like comissars" when they took people's property, comparing their land grab to the Soviets. Very true. How can you not like George Allen?

Allen is great. I think Allen is the only Senator from another state who has written a response letter to me, which addressed my specific concerns (that Schumer was ignoring his constituents' input). Allen wrote:

I believe that a vigorous debate about judicial nominees is appropriate but the partisan debate we're seeing today simply is obstructionist... With that in mind, Miguel Estrada is an exceptional and highly qualified nominee for this important position on the federal bench... I am pleased to strongly support the nomination of Miguel Estrada. He truly personifies the American dream...

I want to thank you again for taking the time to contact me. It is truly an honor to serve you in the United States senate, and I want you to know that you input is very helpful as I look for ways to ensure that you voice is heard in Washington.

Allen represents Independent, Republican, and Conservative NYers in the Senate, better than Clinton and Schumer.

I know a lot of folks here can't stand Susan, but I like her. She screetches, but she's kind of funny. And I think she and Hannity have some good sparks going. Colmes is just too dull, and he lets Hannity walk all over him.

I wonder if they CAN do a makeover of one's vocal chords to make the voice softer?

It is all about vocal placement. Maybe with some training she could get the voice out of her throat and into her sinus cavity.

Even if George W doesn't get two more picks, a President Allen almost certainly would. :-)
