And your link proves exactly what I said, Specter said he didn't think the President would appoint justices who would overturn RvW.

How about this one, Baghdad Bob?

Sen. Arlen Specter had better watch out. The day after President Bush's election triumph, Republican Sen. Arlen Specter -- who is expected to be chosen chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee -- fired a warning shot across the bow of the ship of state: "The president is well aware of what happened, when a bunch of his nominees were sent up, with the filibusters. And I would expect the president to be mindful of the considerations which I am mentioning."

As one of the few Republicans who opposed President Reagan nominee Robert Bork for the Supreme Court, and President George W. Bush's nominee for the federal bench (and now senator) Jeff Sessions, Mr. Specter's words are quite easy to decode. He is warning the president that he will block or oppose conservative nominations, no matter how qualified, for the high benches.

The really shameful thing is found your way to FreeRepublic to taint the level of discussion. Debate with you is like trying to discuss Algebra with a child that insists "you can't do math with letters!"

You keep proving my point again and again.

You can say whatever you want, but Specter simply didn't say what you said he said. And you have proved it. Again. With your own quote.
