Hey O, how are ya?
Ok. Justices. And I was there when they were sworn in and very much a part of the battle to get them there.
More than happy to give credit to him for that. But there has been a fight on that issue for six years that many of us have worked night and day on -- and on the brink, when at anytime another Justice could step down....opening up perhaps the most important fight for the heart and soul of the Court EVER...there will not be any mention of judges OR justices in this SOTU for the first time in this Administration.
Instead, tomorrow, Leahy will parade through a bunch of district court nominees -- no circuit court nominees - and we will meekly sit here and say "thank you sir, may I have another" and not even ATTEMPT to say -- Uh, no, gentlemen, you will NOT abuse these nominees and if you do not put these nominees through with fair consideration, all work in the Senate will come to a screeching halt.
No such luck.
Every issue we care about as conservatives -- every issue -- either starts or ends in the courts. Who wears those black robes is of the utmost importance. To bow to the left now is to condemn the third, all important vacancy on the Supreme Court to be filled by another Souter....or worse. One guy in a robe with the stroke of a pen can undo any other precious policy passed through any elected body or voted on by any voter. To ignore this issue now is foolish.
...and who elected the MSM, profs and Hollywood?
Okay...I'll take the bait...I'm disappointed that he's not fought the war on terror agressively enough...so sorry to see that we've not fought the decisive fight in Iraq--onto total victory...not because of our military, but because of PC...political expediency, etc. It grieves me to think that our outstanding men and women who have given their lives may have done so in vain. THAT's what I'm afraid of...so flame away if you wish...also, can't bear to watch the SOTU speech, to watch the bafoon DemonCraps and the meally-mousy RINOs subpar performance...geesh! I'm so disheartened right now.
Stop it! You used to be a really nice guy, now all of a sudden you're playing the bully.
The Republicans are scared to death of the liberal media. It is just that simple! Well, not all but the vast majority are!
Duncan Hunter for President!!
Good post! Thanks for the perspective.
My type. Well, golly. Look who's making it personal.
We don't vote for those people and they have every right to express their opinions.
Some of us even served in uniform so that they could express those foul opinions.
You can continue to whine about the media, academia, and Hollywood instead of working to influence the policians and the moderate wimps.
I think the fashion scene will be all the Queen Bees dressed in red. President Pantsuit has been sporting it since her announcement. Who is the one who practically throws herself at W every year? Sheila Jackson Lee???
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!! Finally, amnesty for illegals, here we come!
Very good and you?
LOL...You must have me confused with someone else!
HOWEVER... the Cold War was ended by Reagan. The possibility exists that you and I are alive today thanks to him.
That trumps a lot of bad.
Oh, Pelosi is painful to watch.
See post # 177.
Me too. I haven't missed a State of ther Union Speech in the last 30 years, but somehow this time around I can't bring myself to watch it. I hate to see my country being sold down the river to the rats.
