"Let's see, Bush names but two SCJs. Why didn't he name Souter?"

He probably doesn't like Souter (although comments from anti-Meirs folks on this site would lead one to believe Souter must be Bush's hero). But are you really trying to argue that the reference you provided says "Bush promised he would appoint judges in the mold of Thomas and Scalia"?

You conveniently forget to explain why Bush didn't name any of the other six. He only named two.

Though I don't have access to Lexis/Nexis, Bush did lead people to believe that Scalia and Thomas were not only at the top of his list of model SCJs, they were the only ones he could relate to or was willing to use as examples of what he wanted.
