Would you say that Miers is as stellar as Luttig?
No not even CLOSE. Luttig is a shining light who would've excited the base. We're told that 'ANGRY WHITE MEN' are responsible for the 94, 2000, '02 and '4 wins. Well, Luttig was the guy to keep the 'AWM' excited about politics despite the sky high gas prices.
If the Dems had went after Luttig for advocating the death penalty of the 17 and a half year old who killed his father in cold blood, the rats would've gotten clobbered.
Most Americans --fter hearing what happened to Luttig's old man-- would've been four square behind his nomination. And the rats would've looked like soft on crime pinkos for oppsing him.
God, Bush blew this one so effing bad it's hard to even put in to words.
The point is that this is being labeled 'caving' a 'failure' 'blowing it'...........and that's only the polite stuff.
So far, the facts don't back you up. The histrionics on this thread have been absolutely without merit.............of course unbridled emotions usually are.
(And didn't I see the same stuff about Roberts from the usual suspects, some of whom are happy with him now?)
Just settle down........use your heads.......wait for the facts........and stop spreading rumors.
ACT LIKE CONSERVATIVES.
I have new found respect for liberals and Democrats. They will fight, no holds barred to promote their beliefs. They would have filibustered a pick like Owens...they would shut down the Senate. If Roe was overturned, they would bomb the Senate floor.
We Republicans don't fight for anything. This was a once in a 50 year chance to overturn liberal socialist type crap and RoeWade...
Republican elites are no better than Dem elites. All of Bush's talk about "life" and the "sanctity of life" was no more than trivial utterances to get the vote of the pro life base....
Joke is on us guys and gals. I don't care if Hillary wins, Kennedy, or even that socialist creep Sanders...because in the end the person who fights (libs and dems) win...
I have no stake or will to fight for any Republican and I honestly think now that I have to rethink the war on terror...we should just negotiate so that they bomb other satans....
Negotiate Negotiate....CAPITULATE...no reason to watch politics just take care of me and mine...get what I can for myself.
Argument: yeah but what if Hillary wins....Answer it really doesn't matter...this was a life changing moment and it will affect my veiws for a lifetime...F Off Republicans.
