Rove-like, you say??? Plans permanent Rat majority, you say??? May he enjoy the same success that Karl Rove did this year.
Not only do I wish him the success but quicker.
The ruling party had a permanent majority in Mexico, the Soviet Union, communist China, Cuba, and Nazi Germany.
Those examples are going to be hard acts for Schumer to follow, but I'm sure he'll try.
Hey Chucky, Abramoff just spilled the beans on Dirty Harry and maybe more of the roaches that are your colleagues. You are about to get vetoed yourself out of the majority by the govenor of Nevada.
Chuckie "Proud-To-Be-A-Socialist" Schumer sees the SCOTUS, as all radical leftists do, as a vehicle to install liberalism and socialism as the platform of America. Anti-Constitutional liberal judicial activism on the SCOTUS, as we have witnessed recently (5th amendment attack), is a good example of what these non-Americans want to do to this country.
Shred our Constitution.
Maybe the Rats' developing little Abramoff problem will bring that to pass. Maybe Dingy Harry will get the boot he so richly deserves (but not until the new Republican governor takes office in January, right?).
Yep, if there is a Supreme Court vacancy, this will be the dirtiest fight ever. Schumer and company will take Supreme Court battles to the lowest levels ever.
To think that Alito's seat almost went to Harriet Miers - while we had a 55 to 45 majority!
Thank you, Mr. Melman.
I don't know about the rest of you but I am going to have a difficult listening to all of this the next couple of years! I am still in shock that aged hippies are in charge during war time. I am sick at heart and waking up to news with Pelosi, Murtha, Shumer and on and on about makes me want to stay in bed!
Dang see this is what you get to do when you are the majority. You get to vote on various candidates for Supreme Court. If we don't get the majority in the next election...we are screwed for a VERY long time. Between now and 2012 we will probably have to replace 6 of the justices at least.
Chuck is drunk with power. Here's hoping he wakes up with a terrible hangover. They say power corrupts, and when a party is already as corrupt as the RATS, they may become so obviously criminal that their MSM buddies will have to quit covering for them.
That may just be wishful thinking, since RATS have already gotten away with murder (teddy), rape (clinton), and treason (clinton and others).
I think Stephens or GInsberg will have an easier time retiring now that the Dems control the Senate.
And IMO if Bush and the GOP minority have some balls, they can still get a good pick.
Yes, it was a good thing we had a 55 to 45 majority during the Clinton years. We were able to use our majority muscle to stop left-wing ACLUer ideologues like Ruth Bader Ginsburg.
Ooops... wait, she passed with over 90 votes?
That would really be nice wouldn't it. I hope your statement turns out to be prophetic.
Best bet would be a senator like Jeff Sessions. Chuckie Schumer wants to be on the Supreme Court, so won't want to set a precedent of opposing a member of the "club".
I'm beginning to see why Bush Sr. had to nominate Souter. I don't know the politics of the time, but I can understand why milquetoasts are sometimes nominated since none other can get thru.
