Rove-like, you say??? Plans permanent Rat majority, you say??? May he enjoy the same success that Karl Rove did this year.
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.
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.
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'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.
Schmuckie's right on one thing: with a Dem majority they rule the judiciary committee, led by that 'rat Leahy. If they stick together they can stymie any Bush nominee in committee. A nominee will have to be a superlative legalist to get through (e.g. would Roberts and Alito get through this new senate?). Look what they did to Estrada for two years.
I predict that in the coming years the term "schumer" will take on the same meaning as "clymer".
Look for several leftie retirements on the court soon with Bush forced to choose moderates.
Pride comes before the fall. Chucky should take a look at what just happened to his Republican buds.
And this is news? Did he vote to confirm Alito? Answer - Schumer (D) No
OK, Chuckie, let's rock & roll. Who are the 2 members of the USSC most likely to croak or be unable to continue? Stevens, 86, and Ginsburg, 73 and with cancer. Both big libs. Fine, deadlock the Senate, the SC can pump out 4-3 decisions in favor of the original interpretation of the Constitution for a long time.
If there's a vacancy on the court, wouldn't that most likely occur if they lost a Leftist?
I think Schmuckie Schumer may find out we'll have little incentive to correct that if so.
Who says the words chosen to make a point are not important? He wants the American people to think the "right" is the "hard-right".
This smug "man" may have absolutely nothing to say about, and I am going to pray to that end every single day.
This is also proof positive that for the Democrats, who cannot jam their agenda down the throats of the public in elections, the courts are their only vehicle to achieve their ends. This election proved this, among other thing. They cannot run hard left candidates and win UNLESS they disguise them as "moderates". To this day, I do not know what a "moderate" is!!
