If it is true that Durbin asked questions about Robert's relgion's effect on his job, then Durbin violated Article 6, Clause 3, last sentence of the U.S. Constitution, and Durbin should be impeached:

" . . . no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."

Durbin should be impeached:

You don't impeach Senators. They are typically removed by vote of the other members.

Durbin came dangeriuosly close to suggesting that no practicing Roman Catholic can be confirmed on the bench.

If the Dems want to make that argument, please let them.

Article VI.

Clause 3: The Senators and Representatives before mentioned, and the Members of the several State Legislatures, and all executive and judicial Officers, both of the United States and of the several States, shall be bound by Oath or Affirmation, to support this Constitution; but no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.

Great catch.

This must be forwarded to Fox, Tony Snow, (the vacationing) Rush Limbaugh, Hannity, etc., and a letter writing campaign needs to be pushed on Turley and the LA Slimes.

Of couse, to liberals little things like the actual words in the Constitution are such archane things, to be ignored at (their) will, dontcha know?

[Lee'sGhost]

Good point.

Thats very interesting.

Of course in the eyes of minority liberal hate groups, if the man has morals he is not qualified for the Supreme Court.

Little Dickey TurdBin is nothing more than a prick in disguise of a senator.
