I have to agree...as bad as the hoopla over Miers has been, Gonsalez would have been, and will be if it happens, much worse because Dobson and others oppose him. But if W gets two more picks, and he picks a popular conservative for his third pick, he may get away with naming Gonsales for his 4th pick....

That is indeed prescient analysis. My hat is off to you.

Wow. A fourth pick. That has to be a record.

Hey, what is with this President rewarding his friends and devoted supporters with lifetime appointments to the Supreme Court! Hey, if you think ya gotta do somethin' nice why not make them ambassadors to Aruba or something, like every other President has done. Jeesh, the Supreme Court is too damn important for this kind of BS. JMHO
