President Bush has moved Judge Brown up already, and no doubt will do so again. She's top notch. Fierce. Smart. Patriotic. Wonderful.
Roberts is even better.
Life is good.
This white guy would have been elated if it was J. R. Brown
I would have been ecstatic with Ms. Brown but I am a happy man tonight. Our man "Dubya" came through "big-time."
Game on!
In your face Liberal low-lifes!
"Although, I would have been happy with Ms. Brown"
Or her lovely Daughter,
Doh! showing my age, although the Hermans Hermits predate me a bit.
I'm a white man and I would have been ecstatic.
But this sure looks like a good pick.
I have two questions.
Why the games?
Why was Arlen reported as pleased???
"Although, I would have been happy with Ms. Brown."
There's plenty of room coming up for her. I think Rhenquist is just there for one year. And Ruth Bader is having trouble holding down the guacamole.
Rogers will make it there at some point IMO
I too would have been happy with Ms Brown. And I'd gladly be happy for any female, black or hispanic justice that walks the walk. IMHO, they have to be someone, anyone that believes in the Constitution as it was intended originally, and who won't make it into a 'living document' which can be altered to accommodate every new fad.
Hey bg, I'm still hoping for JRBrown for when Rehnquist steps down. And that's coming from a Jewish white guy, if that makes any difference. She's superb!
I'm pleased with the appointment, subject to further review.
I too would not only have been happy had the nomination gone to Janice Rogers Brown, but at this early moment, I probably would have preferred it. I know more about her than I know about Roberts, and I like very much what I know.
So would I, a white male, have been happy with Ms. Brown. It's time for everyone to judge a person not by the color of their skin but by....., as MLK said.
I want royalties for the second photo on your profile page.

I agree.
But, Ms. Brown STILL has a shot because the great odds are there could be two more picks to come. I think Renquist will not make it so there is one. And I feel death or illness will force one of the others out (hopefuly Ginsberg who has had cancer).
This white male hopes Ms. Janice Brown makes it to the SC before W leaves office.
You may get your wish when Renquist resigns... :}
You and me both, brudda, either one and I would have been tickled pink!
Bless you my brother from another mother. With a little luck we can get Judge Janice Rogers Brown bumped up to SCOTUS and show how a sensible (black) woman should rule, judicially.
PS: Here in my town we have a blues club, "The Rynborn" which is owned by a guy you might have heard of - Luther "Guitar Junior" Johnson. He used to play with Muddy Waters way back and can be seen for a moment in the Blues Brother movie.
Take care and keep a'pickin.
If this is true, I'm glad it's a white male.
And that's coming from a Black male!
Although, I would have been happy with Ms. Brown.
Coming from this white male, I would have made a single exception for human cloning of Justice Thomas.
Hope this is a close second.
Janice Rogers Brown will be the next nominee (I hope) when the Chief Justice retires.
