No. It's a sign that there's a 24 hour train strike the next day and the labor is in a hurry to get home.
Ann Coulter?It might be more accurate to say that Ann was "expressing concern" - that choosing someone with a limited paper trail was riskier than choosing a PROVEN originalist.Isn’t she the one who was complaining loudly about the selection of John Roberts to the Supreme Court?
From FOOL ME EIGHT TIMES, SHAME ON ME (July 27, 2005):
— "He's a scholarly man; he has a good education; he has been recommended by legal authorities; he has a good record in lower courts." — President Bush
— "This decision had the advantage of being acceptable to conservatives, plus Democrats won't be able to attack him. There is nothing to grab a hold of, to whack him on." — An administration official
— "Virtually every conservative who knows him trusts him and thinks he's a competent guy." — Newt Gingrich
— "(He) has voiced opposition to many forms of abortion. He dislikes affirmative-action programs, contending that they amount to reverse discrimination. Also, he has vigorously defended ... the Lord's Prayer in its public schools." — Los Angeles Times
— "He is a remarkable intellect and he's had great experience and he's had wide knowledge, and you all would enjoy an evening or more with him." — C. Boyden Gray
— "This guy is a complete S.O.B. of a conservative and you can't prove it." — P.J. O'Rourke
— "When you look at the man's record, his experience, his integrity and his ability to deal with tough questions of law in a way that the courts should, in a restrained way, not to attempt to legislate from the bench, I think he's a man in tune with the times." — Dick Thornburgh
— "His view is: 'Here's what it says state government can do — and if it doesn't say it can do it, then it can't do it.'" — Lawyer who argued cases before the nominee
— "(He) seems to be a judicial conservative, what we call a constitutional constructionist. ... That's satisfactory with us, if that's true." — National Right to Life's John Willke
— "He is a 'stealth nominee.' ... The right's not yelling; the left is trying to yell but can't find much to yell about." — Bob Beckel
— "This is a home run." — President Bush's chief of staff
He is David Hackett Souter, only the most recent reason Republican presidents — especially Republican presidents named "Bush" — have lost the right to say "Trust me" when it comes to Supreme Court nominations...-- snip --
...Of course it's possible that Roberts will buck history — all known human history when it comes to the Supreme Court — and be another Scalia or Thomas. (And we'll hear this news while attending a World Series game between the Cubs and, oh, say ... the Detroit Tigers.)
That will not retrospectively alter the fact that Bush and all the other Zarathustra Republicans cheering for Roberts haven't the first idea what kind of justice Roberts will be right now. They are telling us their hopes and dreams.
I share their hopes and dreams! I also hope it doesn't rain in August. I'm not throwing out all my umbrellas, and I won't be "proved wrong" in that decision even if the rain never comes. This is a fact: Right now, we don't know...
OK, there is one, but she's not in Washington yet. Appropriately, at the end of "High Noon," Cooper is surrounded by the last two highwaymen when, suddenly, his wife (Grace Kelly) appears out of nowhere and blows away one of the killers! The aging sheriff is saved by a beautiful, gun-toting woman.
Excellent.
Excellent. Everytime I get angry at Bush for his tepid domestic policies, I force myself to remember what a great leader he is on defense, foreign policy and anti-terrorism.

Yep
That’s right. I would like to see him vindicated though. I’ve never seen a president go through the spiritual warfare and the vitriol that he has, and it’s because he IS a Christian and satan hates him.
He also has a great God. I just pray that President Bush keeps hearing from Him and doing the right thing. It may not look right to us but that doesn’t matter. It’s God he has to please.
I assume it’s the Republican party?
p.s., I don’t believe in canonization, LOL.
Thanks for posting another masterpiece by Ann Coulter.
The fact is had Gore been able to steal the election in 2000, not only would there have been the attack on 9/11 but at least another one. And if Kerry has won in 2004 another one would have followed. Everyone knows Al Qaeda and Hezbollah are hoping for the empty suit to win, because they know he won’t to nothing when he terrorist attack again
As his presidency winds down, he still needs our prayers for the dangerous months ahead.
I thought the Swiss were clockwork. lol
Thank you for saying it.
Hitler made sure the trains ran on time to Auschwitz, Dachau, and other similar destinations.
He is a good, decent, honorable man whom I have disagreed with on numerous occasions, but I have always been very grateful he has been our president and not Gore or Kerry.

Whew.
We sure managed to dodge a couple of lethal bullets so far this century.
