I like the idea of a recess appointment of Robert Bork, with Bork making an announcement that he will step down upon the naming of his successor.

Then name Janice Rogers Brown as the proposed successor. The Dems can dis the black lady and keep Bork, or they can do the right thing.

"None of the other solidly conservative candidates appears any less likely to engender controversy. So President Bush faces a choice: he can either nominate another conservative and trigger the most bitter confirmation battle since Robert Bork, or he can bow to pressure from the Democrats and the media and appoint a moderate, thereby forgoing, perhaps forever, his opportunity to move the Court in a conservative direction."

To battle, then.

Luttig. That's the guy I would pick. I would do it now as RUSH suggested. Keep putting so many obstacles in front of the commies that they won't know where to spread their venom.

It is just a delay.

Nominate Janice Rogers Brown, and let the Dems filibuster. If they do, it will be political suicide. Plus, there's always the chance Teddy Kennedy will have a heart attack from getting all worked up about it.

Actually, we're on WWIV. WWIII was the Cold War and we won. I guess this would be WWV.

And therefore foregoing, forever, any link between conservatives and the Republican party.

"Preparing for World War III"

Too late, I witnesed the war lost from within at New Orleans, and it only took one day for civilization to evaporate.

Pressure to appoint a centrist will undoubtedly be fierce.

The GOP will succumb as they ALWAYS have ("Centrists" O'Connor, Souter, Kennedy, etal.)...

But IMO they have had their SC dictates from the New World Order for years now since a staunchly sovereign, conservative America will not do the bidding of the "World."

We shall NOT be getting that Scalia or Thomas justice we were duped into believing would be appointed.

The Democrat party is in its death throes; only another war could save it.
