He sounds like a perfect appointment for this coming Christmas recess. Let's see if the president is The President.

Barbara Boxer isn’t fit to carry Rogan’s gun cleaning kit.

Funny, but I don’t even recall hearing his name. If he was so damned influential in Clinton’s impeachment, why wasn’t the leftist media attacking and blasting him and his name 24/7 since that year? Something is fishy here.

Sounds like he’s the kind of man we desperately need, though!

Isn’t this nepotism, since Barbara Boxer is or was related to hillary?

I had a hard time googling to confirm this. I suspect that someone has been fiddling with Google again.

But I found this: “. . . Boxer based on the grounds that her daughter, Nicole, is married to Hillary Rodham Clinton’s brother, Tony”

Reading the article, Boxer also objects to the man’s positions on various issues, including gun control.

Seriously, the Senate’s role is not to determine what policy positions the President’s appointees have.

You can imagine what this hag would be screaching about if the situation were reversed.

Don’t you just love seeing this stain on the character of the United States pass judgement on another person?

What is a real shame, is that the charges weren’t better defined by the House, and the Senate didn’t hold the impeachement trial.

Bill Clinton should have been removed from office and placed in prison for his actions that are on the record.

He was one of my heroes during that time. His questioning of ohters and his analysis were models of statesmanship. And his courage!! His district was Hollywood, if I recall, and he knew that his public stance for impeachment meant his defeat in the 2000 election; but he went ahead anyway. A great man.

He thought Clinton committed high crimes and misdemeanors? Clinton admitted to it.

Martha Stewart went to jail for less. I recall a republican majority leader that lost his job and was indicted for less.

What does Nancy think is an impeachable offense, exactly? Lying? Noooooo.... Ethics violations? Nooooooooo... Going to war? YES!!!!!!

Going to war is what Nancy thinks is an impeachable offense. Nevermind the mass murder of hundreds of thousands by tyrannical dictators. Forget 9/11. Forget tyrannical dictators and human rights. Nevermind freedom. Nobody bombed America...I mean, Saddam didn’t bomb America.

No surprise here.

Any word whether the moonbats are going to pull another stunt and keep the Senate in session over Christmas?

Useless. It would only be short term.
I would prefer that Rogan milk the publicity for all it's worth and then run against that stupid p.o.s. Boxer.

What makes this “blue slipping” all the more remarkable are two facts:

1. District-court nominees almost never are blocked. They’re trial court positions; the power largely lies in the Courts of Appeals.

2. Rogan was a “consensus nominee” reported back to the White House by the so-called Parsky Committee, whose members include folks who are put there by Boxer and Feinstein, among others, including Republicans.

If such a nominee is filibustered / blocked-from-advancing, then, all the more reason to scrap such hand-holding committees. They obviously offer little guarantee that a nominee will be treated substantively, or even procedurally, fairly.

Just when did a Senator get veto power over a judicial nominee? There is no authority for this in the constitution, at least as far as I am aware of. Please advise folks if you know better. These people need to be run out of DC on a rail.

When will the voters in California wake up and elect somebody else for this Senate seat? Sen. Boxer needs to go home.

I swear that Boxer and Pilosi are ruining all of the advances that the women’s movement have made. A more petty, vindictive, and positively stupid set of females existeth not in the modern world. Bimbo, thy name is senatewoman.

I love Jim Rogan. I sent him an email once after I heard an interview he gave regarding a book he wrote a couple of years ago. It seems he grew up very very poor in California. He is a self made man. What was so touching was his personal encounter as a young man with Ronald Reagan and how Reagan changed his whole life in those few moments. Rogan is a true blue conservative and the kind of man the Republican party needs as a leader.

By the way, he graciously answered my email and said he would never be ashamed or regret his part in the Clinton impeachment.

Boxer cannot block the nomination if the president decides to nominate him. Clearing it with the senators from the state the nominee comes from is a mere formality and not a constitutional requirement.

Boxer is related to the Clinton’s by marriage.
Shouldn’t she have stepped away from any influence on this nomination since her interests are tainted by any definition of the law?

I wish there was something we could do to Boxer.

There must be something she wants that canbe vetoed or witheld.
