Casey, Webb, Ford & Tester Agree To Schumer Filibuster Pact As Rumors Swarm About Justice Stevens
Stop The ACLU ^ | 4-Nov-06 | Oak Leaf

Posted on 11/04/2006 7:32:09 PM PST by Jay777

For those involved in GOP-GOTV, it is very important to know the rumors on John Paul Stevens:

For the past several weeks, there has been a rumor circulating among high-level officials in Washington, D.C., that a member of the U.S. Supreme Court has received grave medical news and will announce his or her retirement by year’s end.

Then the GOP-GOTV dynamite needs to get to work. And just what would these "moderate democrat" Senator wannabes do if elected:

Schumer is reported to have assured Democrats that Bob Casey Jr. -- despite running as a moderate Senate candidate -- would be supportive of Democratic efforts to block constitutionalist judicial nominees. “There’s no worry on judges,” said Schumer. “And judges is the whole ball of wax.” Other supposedly centrist Democratic candidates including Harold Ford Jr. (Tenn.), Jon Tester (Mont.) and Jim Webb (Va.) have refused to rule out filibusters against judicial nominees.

Last nail in the coffin in all of them if this is true. Especially Ford...you would think he would be at least talking about supporting judges. If he says otherwise, he's toast.

If true, I have to say that Casey is disgusting. His father scuttled his party's nominees for Governor and Senate in 1994 over abortion.

On average the conservative judges are 15 years younger than the liberal ones.

I get a kick out of all of the supposed "conservatives" that have called for Rummy's resignation....

Just who so they think the danged Senate would CONFIRM to take his place???

NOT someone Bush would want..that is for sure...look at what has happened to Bolton.

If Chafee loses, what do you wanna bet that one of the "new" Senators, just to get in good with Schumer, will take up the HOLD that Chaffee has on Bolton now..

Webb has run a candidacy as a populist southerner, the type of Democrat the region used to endorse. Now he's shown himself to be just another Chucky puppet.

Okay - calling all one issue voters - It's pretty certain that there will be an opening in the SCOTUS soon - you want the dems to fill it and forever pass up our chance to start getting this country back?

Let's no be cutting off our noses...

The RAts/Socialists must not get more power in their traitorous hands
