People who oppose Miers for the most part didn't support Ginsburg or Breyer. They didn't give in a second thought because they knew it was the President's prerogative to appoint nominees. This was never really an issue until the dems started throwing hissy fits over Republican appointed nominees.
IMHO there is nothing wrong with this pick; the problem is delusional people like you who think that you actually have any chance to influence the President to pull the nomination.
So no, we don't all agree.
Next time you write a vanity, speak for yourself only, and try to come up with something worthwhile to say. Don't assume you know what other people are thinking, because you don't -- especially where the President is concerned. You'll see Elvis before you see the President back down on this.
You ought to justshutupandread a little bit more. Many reasons have been expressed, other than the one you assert is the ONLY reason.
I want the GOP to successfully promote the conservative agenda, not shirk from it.
Again, if you don't like the President and our party, you can leave.
Thanks for the lecture, newbie. Do you realize how foolish you sound?
The really funny thing about your post: my guess is the vast majority of current GOP senators who were in office in the 1990s voted for confirmation of both Ginsburg (96 votes?) and Breyer, and will do the same for Miers.
Therefore, by your considerable logic, the majority of the GOP Senate is comprised of "little sKerry beatnik lovers."
Too funny.
Then again, considering it was the RINOs in the Senate that put us in this mess, maybe you're onto something :-)
Now go away - serious people are having serious conversations about a very serious issue. Trust me, you are adding nothing to it.
There is nothing wrong about the heated debate hear at FR. It happens all the time. People who post here are activists. It is natural for them to vent their frustrations at this Forum. Where else can they have an opportunity to do that. It gives them a chance to voice their own opinions unvarnished by the spin of the MSM, bloviating columnists, politicians of every stripe and even other Freepers. We do not think like liberals, who promote group think in the guise of multiculturalism. We conservatives can think for ourselves, as you can readily see on this forum day after day.
We do not need to get back on track. We are already on it.
Yeah they sure would welcome the trashing of Miers and Bush over there.
oh boy, it smells "trolly" in here.
BTW, the Members who are against the nomination has dropped two points today.
Welcome to FR. Great post.
Trent Lott is a sKerry beatnik lover.
Assuming I did oppose the Miers nomination are you suggesting I must leave this forum forever to join the DU-ers? Seem like a little quick to judge people on one issue. No?
Don't know about that - Chester the Cheerleader was definitely a poor Majority leader though :-)
Hint to RWI - lighten up and debate, rather than post ad hominem attacks. You'll enjoy your stay here much more.
Yeah the whiners are soiling their own agenda and they think it's trolls they're smelling. Go figure.
LOL! "Chester the Cheerleader". That's saying a Lott!
hehehehe.... I thought mine was more interesting: http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-chat/1500233/posts
LOL! Now that one is hard to believe.
I challenge you to substantiate this mathematically. According to the poll, 39.7% need more info. 30.4% approve. 25.9% disapprove. 2.3% "pass', and 1.7% vote Hillary? While any logical person would bet against you, it is not conclusive at this point, but with abt 40% "needing more info" the pro's outnumber the cons 30.4 to 25.9 and the "need more info's" are likely to break 6 to 5 for the nominee.
I doubt everyone here can agree on anything. LOL
It is something to think about. Men who rubber stamped Clinton's offerings quailing about Miers.
