Now what has to happen is that every Republican on every news, talk, or otherwise public shows MUST ECHO THESE POINTS. They have to be made to DOMINATE this discussion!

I cannot emphasize enough how important it is to the future of this country to at least achieve some balance in the federal judiciary, which is currently loaded with so many Klintonites that every single basic premise upon which this country was founded is at risk. The danger of dropping the ball during this administration, and with a Republican Congress, in my opinion equals or exceeds the danger presented by Al Qeada, Iraq, North Korea or anything else confronting this Republic.

All those bastards can do is kill some of us, but the leftists can kill everything that made this country great, which leads to death by a thousand pin pricks for all of us, because we will no longer be Americans but something very, very different.

That's untrue.

"Consider these statistics, gathered by the Democratic staff of the Senate Judiciary Committee. There are 13 circuits: 11 regional plus the D.C. Circuit and the federal court that handles specialized cases. If all of Clinton's nominees had been approved, the circuits would have been evenly balanced in partisan terms by the time he left office. Six would have had majorities appointed by Democratic presidents, six by Republicans, and one would have been evenly split.

But if Bush succeeds in filling every open seat, some of them vacant because Clinton nominees were blocked, 11 of the 13 circuits will have Republican-appointed majorities. In eight of the 13, Republican nominees would have majorities of 2 to 1 or more."
