Per CNN...

"Luck? If the roof fell in and Diz (Dean) was sitting
in the middle of the room, everybody else would be
buried and a gumdrop would fall in his mouth."
-- Leo Durocher

Dizzy Dean AND President Bush. ;^)

Janice roberts brown...but dont you think ann coulter would just make the court much more interesting

[CharlesWayneCT]

Plus they have to be thinking now that if they hold up Roberts, the court is more in their favor now with O'Conner still serving and Rehnquist gone.

[potlatch]

Yes, we all need our faith. I watched both of my parents go through similar illness and know what it's like.

[Soul Seeker]

I don't know.

I am not Bush.

I only KNOW and TRUST it will be a constitutionalist.

[ClarenceThomasfan]

What's up with Fox news? I hear Hannity and Colmes but they just have photos on the screen. Is the camera broken?

[samantha]

LOL, you sounded like Rush with that one.

[wallcrawlr]

ok, high five for the assist

[RummyChick]

Clinton badly wanted to speak at the microphone during a Bush Address to the public on Katrina. He was trying to get Daddy Bush to speak first but Daddy wasn't having any of it.

[Darksheare]

Yes.
Not to mention the moonbats from the dump coming here to stir trouble.
*chuckle*
We'll find them.
*ominously*
..we'll find them..

prayers for Rhenquist's family, this is so sad, but just damn. Everything falls onto Bush's shoulders. He need prayers massively sent up now.

Good idea. Why not now? (ping)

Father, thank You for Your grace and mercy in our lives. Thank You for the life and service of our Country's Chief Justice, and for the loan of him for these 80 years. I pray comfort for his family, as Your Word says that you are close to the brokenhearted and rescue those who are crushed in spirit.

I join my brothers and sisters on this forum and around the world who are praying for President Bush. Lord, what a heavy burden he has, as the leader of this country, and as a target of so many people's admiration and hatred. Father, please grant his mind the peace that only You can give. Give him continued wisdom, courage and the boldness that springs from humility.

I ask that you prepare the hearts and minds of those who will be nominated as justices, and also as the next Chief Justice. Prepare them and defend them from the onslaughts of their enemies...both spiritual and physical. I also lift up John Roberts and his family to you, as his confirmation hearings begin this Tuesday. Guide his thoughts, guard his heart, and be with his wife and children.

Lastly, Lord, please bless those who are affected by the hurricane and aftermath. Help us to do our part; we know that you are faithful to do yours.

These and all things we ask in the name of Christ, our Lord, Amen.

Eternal rest grant unto William

May perpetual Light shine on William
May William rest in peace.

[Txsleuth]

Whew--- I knew that didn't sound like you!!!

Shoot, I was making a mental list of the important stuff coming up next week when Congress reconvenes...and I had forgotten Able Danger..

Curt Weldon must be wondering if his "announcement" will get any attention at all...now what was his announcement supposed to be about again...????? lol

[Libertarian444]

I figured the opposite. They set Roberts up as a racist with the "War between the States" idiocy. I've got a feeling they will use the Bush hates blacks line all the way up to the Senate floor demanding that Roberts and Bush want to reenact slavery/

Beat ya to it! See Post # 719

[shield]

I didn't realize he was this close to death. It's sad what a character he was. And I thank The Lord for him...he help to bring the court to a more conservative stance.

[kingu]

Never, EVER bet against their vilest, most loathsome instincts.

Well, I'll hit the tip jar for the $5. Drat. I keep forgetting everything at all times is a moment to gain political coin.

[blueberry12]

Are they in Louisiana right now?

[NYTexan]

W doesn't flinch, he'll pick someone exactly like Roberts. Squeeky clean!

[Recovering Ex-hippie]

My thoughts exactly. He was a noble man.

[Valin]

LOL!!!
