So ya think bush will get us a liberal or a conservative?A concern of many people on the right is the rumor that White House Counsel Al Gonzales could be a nominee for a Supreme Court seat. The worry is that Gonzales would be a judicial activist in favor of affirmative action, abortion, and other liberal ideas. The hope is that President Bush will see the actions of wishy-washy Republican-appointed justices and realize the mistake he would be making in putting Gonzales on the high court.
There's not even a vacancy on the Supreme Court yet, much less a nominee.
