Bush To Choose Ex-Starr Aide
Washington Post ^ | June 19,2003 | Mike Allen

Posted on 06/18/2003 10:11:11 PM PDT by Lady In Blue

President Bush plans to nominate White House lawyer Brett M. Kavanaugh, an author of independent counsel Kenneth W. Starr's report on President Bill Clinton, for a seat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, Republican sources said yesterday.

The disclosure came as Bush issued a curt rejection to Democratic senators who had offered to alleviate a fight over a future Supreme Court vacancy by working with him to find a nominee both sides could accept.

"Hey, didn't we just pass an ADDITIONAL tax cut after the $350 Billion one, to give more money back to low-income families? Is that the 3rd or 4th tax cut in a row?! Afghanistan. Iraq. Partial Birth Abortion Ban. Arming pilots. Killing the Kyoto Global Warming Treaty. Killing the U.S.-CCCP ABM Treaty. Getting the U.S. out of the International Criminal Court."

~Grin the size of Texas~

We have really rolled back alot of the Clintonism. Miles to go...

And there is something else the media is missing...I think out of sheer incompetence...

GW is raising a ton of money right now....somewhere in the range of 200 million is the goal. GW isnt gonna need all of that money...maybe half of it...

Where do you think the rest'll go?

To elect other Conservatives to the legislative branch.

Liberals are literally against the ropes catching an ideological beat down. If we up and find Bin Laden or Hussein...if the economy continues to rebound...man oh man will it ever be a route in 2004.

~Grin~

For all you DU lurkers: Reap it, punk!

Git'em GW!

You can say that again, just a bit louder! Tee hee. Now let's see, the "most intelligent woman in the world" vs. "stupid" Bush. Geez! This is beginning to sound gender biased. Someone should notify NOW! ;^)

I do so agree ... and the fact the dems didn't figure it out yet is beyond belief.

But ... as I've said all along - when the leader of the party is driven by a lust for power - they are totally blinded to reality.

Thanks for the heads up -- and it bears repeating:

No fellow Democrat volunteered to give Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton protective cover when she was the only senator voting against the nomination of Michael Chertoff as a judge on the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Philadelphia.

I know! I can only imagine what she and Bill said when they heard about this! And like you said, this will reopen the Starr Report.

"Bush issued a curt rejection to Democratic senators"

He is smarter than his daddy. Now he needs to fire Mineta.

I think I read some months ago that he was going to fire Mineta,but then Mineta was hospitalized so I guess the whole thing has been put on hold. I think President Bush's father-#41 is an intelligent man.He's a very fine man-a gentlemen.I heard Jeb Bush give a very moving and heartfelt tribute to his father the other night. He ended by saying that he was proud to be his son.Beautiful!
