ABC is clearly placing an inordinate amount of weight on their "being there".

LOL. Well, I guess they figure they gotta say something besides We don't know, either.

I would GLADLY accept a pro-abortion SCOTUS Justice as long as they were a strict Constitutionalist on law and order, property rights, gun rights, reverse discrimination, et al.

Just so wrong. If the basic right to life is out the window, the foundation crumbles - just as it is now.

How pray tell could a strict Constitutionalist not vote to overturn Roe v Wade?

"President Bush's Liberty Doctrine IS visionary, and you will find that will be the controlling doctrine of the 21st Century. You have a lot of study to do if you don't comprehend how important this is. There is only one other policy in the nation's history that has been as controlling as the Liberty Doctrine will prove to be: the Monroe Doctrine."


That's fine, on all things foreign for purpose of today I agree. No argument here. That wasn't the issue. The question is whether he is a visionary on the domestic front.

I submit he is not. Or if he is, then he has precisely the wrong vision which, ironically, is a contraction of liberty. Even more ironically, the contraction of liberty that he participated in by signing McCain Feingold is of truly historic proportions. His creation of a new entitlement is truly inexcusable. I don't see how anyone can possibly dispute that and call themself a conservative.

Perhaps I should say...I hope he is not a visionary on the domestic front. I am chalking up his mistakes to ignorance. If he is a visionary, then he is not ignorant...he is much much worse (he's a liberal). I don't think that is the case.

Perhaps tonight he will kick some serious butt. I am delighted that it appears that Clement is NOT the nominee. We shall see.

I know you, and many of my FRiends agree with me. I will not get into argument about things like this with trolls and libertarians, etc., but will make a single post or even two to set the record straight when that is important.

I wish would do a special hour at 930 tonight on the ditto cam.

Don't know about Rush, but I hear that Hugh Hewitt is doing an additional three hours at the end of his normal show. Supposedly, if you hear his regular show (on now), you'll hear the additional three hours.

The SCOTUS pick announcement has preempted day 2 of MSNBC's weeklong investigative series on the CIA leak non-story on Yackball.

The DUmmies and Reid can't be too happy about that.

"There is only one other policy in the nation's history that has been as controlling as the Liberty Doctrine will prove to be: the Monroe Doctrine."

Incidentally if we want to discuss the history of us foreign policy, the liberty doctrine has a long way to go before it surpasses the Truman doctrine, let alone the Reagan doctrine. Perhaps you are right. But I would submit that it is a tad bit early to tell.
