The GOP has to take back the Senate this November. If it doesn't, no conservatives get on the bench. Period.

The Democrats make me sick.

[KQQL]

WHy should they?.....they ( Rats ) run the senate ..........want Conseravtives Judges?..then Elect Republicans to the senate...especially in the south and mountain states. ..

AND Remember a moderate Republican Senator is better than a RAT!.............especially when it comes to JUDGES !

Miguel is a person friend of mine. He has an incredible mind and a quick wit. His wife is also an attorney who works on the hill (Republican). He has extensive experience arguing before the Supreme Court in his capacity as a former Assistant Solicitor General, and he works in Ted Olson's firm. By the way, Miguel wrote the brief in support of Bush on the petition for certiorari that got the case before the Supreme Court. Please keep him in your prayers. He is one of a kind.

Why do they wish the Hispanic and Latino communities to rise up against them and throw them out of office? I don't have the answers to these questions, but if they don't get moving, they will not be able to stop the backlash.

Ah, little grasshopper, there is no danger of that. The Democrats just get their Latino activist cronies to start parroting the line that Estrada is not a real Hispanic, because he is "wrong on their issues", perhaps tossing out the phrase "a Hispanic Bork", and then they suffer no backlash at all.

Latinos are the new political battleground. Many Cubans who switched after the Elian Gonzales incident may have been the deciding factor in the Florida elections of 2000.

LULAC. the League of United Latin American Citizens has a few good things on its platform, but also has some liberal crap like affirmative action and no militarizing the border too. I've emailed all their officials about this and other stuff. They are going to have a national convention in Houston June 23-29. Invited guest speakers include Shelia Jackson Lee, Tom Daschle, and candidate Tony Sanchez. But it also has invited Tom Ridge, Spencer Abraham, Laura Bush, and possibly even President Bush. Vicente Fox is a confirmed speaker.

Pulaski, how can you argue that affirmative action is a liberal program. Colin Powell, our Secretary of State, championed this fine program before thousands of people at the GOP Convention. The problem with Estrada, and the reason so few Hispanics are behind his candidacy, has to do with the composition of the Supreme Court. Recently, Hispanics have been outraged, and outspoken, against the 5-4 Supreme Court decision denying illegal immigrants the right to unionize. Hispanics realize that the five who voted against Hispanics are GOP sympathizers, and will do anything to ensure that another ultraconservative isn't appointed to the Supreme Court. If you watch Univision and Telemundo, you perceive the outrage. Estrada is not friendly to Hispanic interests, and it is to their credit that Democrats have yet to have a hearing on his nomination.

Dear President Bush,
With the Surpeme Court session getting ready to close, it may well be time for perhaps the most important domestic decision of your presidency: the appointment of a Supreme Court Justice(s). The main reason why I supported you in 2000 and why I wanted Daschle out of power in 02 (and 04) has to do with the courts. I want America courts to interpret law, not write law. During your presidential campaign you said Thomas and Scalia were your two model justices. Those are excellent models. The High Court needs more like them. Clarence Thomas recently said to students that the tough cases were when what he wanted to do was different from what the law said. And he goes by the law. This should be a model philosophy for our justices. Your father, President Bush lost his reelection campaign for 3 main reasosn, as far as I can see. 1. he broke the no new taxes pledge 2. David Souter 3. Clinton convinced people we were in a Bush recession (which we had already come out of by the time Clinton was getting sworn in)

I urge you to learn from all three of these: 1. on taxes, you're doing great. Awesome job on the tax cut. 2. good job so far on judicial appointments. I want to see more of a fight for Estrada, Owen, and Pickering, but I commend you on your nominations. 3. by staying engaged in the economic debate you'll serve yourself well

I have been thoroughly impressed with your handling of al Queida, Iraq, and terrorism. You have inspired confidence and have shown great leadership.

But I want to remind you that your Supreme Court pick(s) will be with us LONG after you have departed office. I urge you to avoid the tempation to find a "compromise" pick. Go for a Scalia or Thomas. Don't go for an O'Connor or Kennedy. To be specific, get someone who is pro-life. Roe v Wade is one of the worst court decisions I know of, and it's the perfect example of unrestrained judicial power.

I know the temptation will be tremendous on you to nominate a moderate. But remember who your true supporters are. I am not a important leader or politician. I am "simply" a citizen who has been an enthusiatic supporter of you. I am willing to accept compromise in many areas of government but I will watch your Court nomiantions extremely closely. What the Senate Dems are doing right now is disgusting, but as the President you have the bully pulpit to stop it. Democrats will back down if you turn up serious heat on them.

Moreover, I think public opinion is shifting towards the pro-life position. Dems will want you to nominate a moderate, but almost all will vote against you anyways. Pro-choice Repubs will likely still vote for you if you nominate a Scalia, after all, you campaigned on it. So Mr. President, I urge you to stick with your campaign statements and nominate justices who believe in judicial restraint, like Scalia and Thomas.

Happy Memorial Day and may God bless you and your family.
