Author is a lib, but I found the perspective interesting.

The President should nominate a Vietnamese American jurist and let the Democrats eat that one.

(Denny Crane: "Sometimes you can only look for answers from God and failing that... and Fox News".)

In no small part, the ease of Roberts’s passage was due to his positioning as Bork’s inverse doppelgänger: humble where Bork was arrogant, silken where Bork was spiky, cherubic where Bork was Mephistophelean—and evasive where Bork was candid.

Just think if Bork had behaved like Roberts in the confirmation hearing what he could have been doing the last 18 years.

The author is a lib and I love how in the far left is just that but the far right is the "wackjob caucus". Are these the far right "wackjobs" who are protesting the US and everything it stands for in DC...oh wait those are lefties.

Another thing the author forgets is this Bork will not have to deal with a lib-MSM monopoly...he will have the freepers on his (or her) side.

Why would anyone be pining for Bjork?

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

Yeah, not bad for a lib. I didn't appreciate the wackjob caucus comment, but then that's what makes it authentically liberal. They must ooze hate for conservatives or they will die. At least they conduct themselves as though that were true.

"But if Bush picks a hard-core conservative, the ensuing battle, though vile and venomous, may also be clarifying—and beneficial to the cause of Democrats over the long haul"

Truer word were never heard from a Big Sh*tty Liberal. When the Democratic party finally hits rock bottom, then and only then, will it begin to realize it must champion the Constitution of America, not some Marxist copy. And, if it repositions its self to actually cut government back to the Constitutional bounds, it will garner many votes.

Mine among them, but I am not waiting for such a change to occur. I forgot to bring lunch.

I do hope the President decides to nominate JR Brown. Wuldn't it be fun to watch "Cheap Shot" Schumer and "Race Card" Jackson justifying why the nomination of a black is racist?

And we could enjoy the self destruction of NOW as they contorted themselves to death trying to justify their hysterical attempts at Borking a woman nominee.

As the lawyers say,"Bring out the popcorn. Let the circus begin."

[Unam Sanctam]

But the pressure from the wackjob caucus is mounting to appoint a justice

So anyone concerned about abortion is a "whackjob"?

The democracks are frustrated because Judge Roberts wouldn't answer their questions about how he would rule on specific hypothetical cases. But, of course, he could not answer those questions. His ruling would depend upon what the arguments of the attorneys were.

They never asked him the relevant questions, questions about how he would approach those cases. They should have been questioning him about his processes and what his methodologies would be in coming to his decisions.
