i agree SUN! If the Republicans keep picking Moderates for the bench I'm afraid the party will fall apart. I have already left the ARepublican party and just consider myself a Conservative at this point. The one thing that needs to happen is the Republicans becoming Conservative again. This is what will make them stronger and succeed!
Robert D.S. Novak said Friday on CNN that GWB should consider a Judge Edith Clement on the Fifth Circuit Court in New Orleans. He pronounced her name CLEE MINT, not KLE MENT. Would this be the same person as "Edith Jones"?
Yeah!!!! She's GONE!!!
Great Big Pro-Life Bump!!! This may be a start of a great revolution! FReep on! JK
P.S - my emails are already on the way - I will contact the Senators, too - as I usually do.
I agree.
There once was a justice named Sandy,
Whose voice sounded sweet, just like candy.
But her mouth, it is said,
Shouted "Off with his head!!
If baby's not found to be dandy."
Well folks, I just heard on the radio news Ted Kennedy complimenting President Bush for saying that he is going to work with the Democrats, so I am NERVOUS!!
Tell me I did not hear it correctly.
Please contact President Bush and remind him that he has always kept his promises, and PLEASE keep his promise again, of nominating judges like Scalia and Thomas.
I was talking with my 16 year old 'Bush Baby' (as I call him) just this morning on the way home from Church about this subject.
He keeps up with quite a bit, but being a teenager, he doesn't follow things as closely as I.
He was not aware of her stand on partial birth abortions, and looked at me with dismay when I explained it to him.
How powerful the younger generation can be! Being in JROTC and devoted to George W., I can only pray he continues with zeal his quest in life - to be President! Every mother's dream, I suppose.
But I began to think about these kids, and the "Rock the Vote" program for teens these days. We need a Junior FReepers section, to really get these kids involved. They are, afterall, our future, and educating them now is the only way to ensure what comes down the road.
Now, if we can make enough noise to get a few more conservatives on the SCOTUS - we are in business!
Love the rhyme, JK
What a great idea!!
Henceforth, the Leftists should be known as ---
Libs LUV a Justice who's ready,
To pass muster with Dick, Chuck and Teddy.
Pat, Joe and Dianne,
Are preheating the pan,
To fry nominees deemed "right-heady."
Clinton did not consult with the Republicans when he picked his judicial nominees, and he received far less votes than President Bush.
Cool poem, Syriacus.
My 19th wedding anniversary is Tuesday. Got a poem handy for my husband and me? :)
There once was a poster named Sun,
Had a husband she lived with as one.
For years ten-plus-nine,
Their life's been most fine.
Their felicity can't be outdone.
Congratulations, to you and your husband, Sun!!
I hope it's in the same way that farmers work with the soil come plowing time.
Great image!!
Could be editted to "There once was a Freeper named Sun" :-)
I don't think we will have to but...I will. Thanks.
For many decades I repeated the pro-abort mantra of, "I'm personally opposed to abortion, but I wouldn't impose my beliefs on others."
Then, one November, I went to the polls and decided to vote straight pro-life.
I had left the Liberal party, but I couldn't yet bring myself to vote for Republican GHW Bush's re-election and I didn't trust Perot. I had left the Liberal party precisely because I realized that it had no room for people opposed to abortion. Beyond that, I realize that Liberals would savagely smear a pro-lifer who got anywhere near the Supreme court. I had watched most of the Clarence Thomas hearings and saw, first hand, how Libs would use media outlets like PBS to distort what went on during the hearings.
Wouldn't you know...that was the one election during which I was asked to participate in an exit poll?
At the time I still dressed like an aging hippie, so the liberal (I'm sure) exit pollster probably thought she would hear me say I had voted in a "lib-approved" way.
What a shocked look she had on her face when I told her that I had voted straight pro-life.
I realized that I had stepped over an invisible line and had become an individual, rather than a cog in the Lib machine.
"There once was a poster named Sun,

Hey that is GREAT!
Thank you!
I'll read it to my husband. :)
