You will literally throw the unborn baby out with the bathwater to make a stand on immigration?

Where are your priorities? In case you didn’t notice, an Obama election absolutely guarantees that the day after inauguration, John Paul Stevens and Darth Bader Ginsburg will retire and the Democratic Congress will appoint Hillary Clinton and Alcee Hastings to the Supreme Court? And Justice Scalia is in his seventies as well.

Seriously. What are you thinking?

This is the sort of scare tactic lacking basic facts that the liberals usually try. The eldest justices on the court are the liberals. The younger ones are the conservatives. The two you mentioned retiring ARE liberals and the balance of the court won't be affected. Also, the average age that justices retire at will not be reached by ANY of the sitting justices until after 4 years from now. It's the 4-12 year span that is crucial. A liberal McCain trashing conservatism in the next 4 will assure a liberal president in '12 that WILL appoint liberal justices. Once McAmnesty ruins the changes for Palin to get elected by her association with him, we're toast. (A VP of an unpopular president will not get elected president. Also, she will have to be in lockstep with him on every single issue. They will have to show a united front. Nobody will remember that she was ever a conservative after 4 years of association with McAmnesty).

McAmnesty voted to appoint Ginsburg. And said he would not appoint a conservative like Alito (like showing your conservatism is a bad thing). I'm not at all convinced McAmnest won't be appointing liberal justices.

Please name for me all the Supreme Court Justices McCain has voted for?

And there is no way the President of the United States is ever going to put an end to abortion. That is impossible. There is no possible way. None. Even overturning Roe won’t do it.

However, the President can order enforcement of our existing immigration laws. He can promise to VETO Amnesty. The Senate can filibuster and delay and confound and obstruct - but not with McCain.

Look I loath BO and the Dems but I am realistic on McCain.
