New York Sen. Charles E. Schumer, a powerful member of the Democratic leadership, said Friday the Senate should not confirm another U.S. Supreme Court nominee under President Bush “except in extraordinary circumstances.”

“We should reverse the presumption of confirmation,” Schumer told the American Constitution Society convention in Washington. “The Supreme Court is dangerously out of balance. We cannot afford to see Justice Stevens replaced by another Roberts, or Justice Ginsburg by another Alito.”

Schumer said there were four lessons to be learned from Alito and Roberts: Confirmation hearings are meaningless, a nominee’s record should be weighed more heavily than rhetoric, “ideology matters” and “take the president at his word.”

I fear we are dealing with actual Stalinists...

Spot on -

But to say this the general public would be too much for them to understand - to get wide spread wake-up on the demise of the Democratic Party, the sheeple have to be spoon fed and accept the "Socialist" label first - plus, I believe that these totalitariat wanabees would not even deny the label "Socialist" , so far are they into the belief that they should control 'the masses' , that they would easier let their guard down.

If confronted straight out as the Stalinists we know they are - they would scream slander, etc etc - and the sheeple, especially the old democrats who are still in denial about the usurpation of their party - would reject the label "Stalinists/Communists" as pure rhetoric.
