Some may not like this appointee of George W. Bush and his approach to the Judiciary as the true rulers of America. His approach lauds such characters as Greer and Whittemore. I don't.

............."Ann Coulter said that I was a 'hack,' and the worst judicial selection Bush made since he nominated Harriet Miers to the U.S. Supreme Court."

Jones said, "It is alarming to me that the public is being fed this kind of misinformation about the role of the judiciary. Judges should not rule on the basis of who their political benefactors were or are, but on the basis of the law." He added that the increased vitriolic attacks on judges for their rulings, such as when former Rep. Tom DeLay of Texas threatened to "hold federal judges accountable for their rulings" could have a chilling effect.

Jones added that many judges at various levels in the case of Terri Schiavo ruled on the basis of family law, rather than the political approach taken by the U.S. Senate which intervened to make it a federal case. "State courts usuallly decide family law cases. After Terri Schiavo died after her feeding tube was removed, Tom DeLay issued his warning that judges would be held accountable for their rulings." ................

We all need to pinch ourselves because Bill Press sez we are dead. I could feel my blood pressure climbing as I scanned this piece, but found myself laughing instead at the dim logic and leftie lies oozing from the keyboard of this marionette. As we know from these lefties the opposite of what they say is what actually is and what they fear, so maybe we aren't all dead after all, maybe more alive than their night terrors can fathom. He fears Terri! Heh heh.

..........The religious right is dead. It will never again exercise the political clout it once had — which is bad news for Republicans, but good news for the republic.

While in the long term, some moderate Republicans might welcome relief from having to genuflect in front of the pro-life movement and Terri Schiavo, the short-term political impact for the Republican Party is a disaster.......
