Many of us know your position on this issue. It so happens, we're in agreement on this one. Yes, the Constitution is whatever a sitting SC says it is, at a certain time. Fine. Thanks for pointing out the obvious, once again.
In the here and now, however, I still want PresBush to nominate the best qualified conservative jurists around. The more conservatives on the high court, the better chance the Constitution will be followed, as originally intented by the Founding Fathers.
>>>Anyone who thinks the words in the Constitution have any bearing on court rulings, has not studied the last 198 years of court decisions.
One problem. I find this remark, somewhat of a contradiction when viewed in the context of your entire statement.
I am with you 100% -- want the best conservative jurist that President Bush can find and have the Senate go to the mat for that person. I believe in my heart that Pres Bush would NEVER appoint a moderate as even his Dad says that the Souter choice was the worst choice he could have made for SCOTUS!
