LOL! You don't owe me an apology. I knew what you meant. I just didn't think you knew what I meant. ROFLOL!

[Bullish]

I HATE the democrats.

They can all go to hell, and they inevitably will.

[Ann Archy]

Why would ANY conservative want to go thru this process of being DESTROYED by the Democrats and their minions in the press....It's DISGUSTING!

[TWRepublican]

Supreme Court nomination in the works? That is what I think. Change the rules on judicial nomiations, then nominate Estrada to the high bench....makes sense. Don't forget how Our President has outfoxed the demons at every turn.

[Princeliberty]

I doubt he simply pulled the plug on his own,
probably a White House political decision.
And if so a big mistake. Cannot give
to Democrats on the Judges.

[nickcarraway]

This would be a disaster.

I think W is thinking strategery

Miguel Estrada Wants Name Withdrawn From Nomination, CNBC Says

By Patricia Azer

Washington, May 9 (Bloomberg) -- Miguel Estrada has ``raised the possibility'' with the White House of withdrawing his name from the appeals court nomination, financial news network CNBC reported, citing unidentified people close to Estrada.

Estrada, President George W. Bush's choice for a federal judgeship, will likely not withdraw his name because the White House ``would like to continue the fight to break that Democratic filibuster threat up on Capitol Hill,'' CNBC said.

I think this is wishful thinking of the biased leftist liberal prss and the DNC.

Freepers, rather than waiting to see what happens with Estrada, we need to take the lead. That means presuring Senators, special interest groups, media organizations, etc. This thread is meant to be an ongoing effort to get this man confirmed. For too many years liberals have had their way on the courts. Now, President Bush is in a position to move the courts to the right. The election of '02 showed that the country is with the President. I think it's time to let Daschle, Hillary, and Pelosi know this is Bush country. Are you with me! Let's FREEP these people.
