Figured that out, did ya?
Unless Republicans start reacting to what El Presidente' Bush is doing rather than blindly supporting him because he's not a Democrat, the disaster he's making will get even larger.
Everyone needs to start calling their reps and senators and start making it clear they *don't* support what's being done... and return all the begging notes from the RNC etc empty except for appropriate comments.
This is a legitimate situation where the Senate should exercise their "advise and consent" role and reject the nominee. She is unqualified to be a justice on the SCOTUS, plain and simple, regardless of ideology. Bush could have made a long list of highly qualified individuals and forced the Dems to fillibuster all of them till they got exhausted. But no, he is taking the easy way out, IMHO.
