Oddly, McCain's voting record is pretty darn conservative. McCain just choses to oppose the GOP on high profile issues where he can get camera time. McCain's CFR was the biggest assult on first Amendment rights in history, but he got lots and lots of publicity for it. McCain's biggest problem is mental. He can go postal at any time. Unfortunately, if McCain plays his cards right and does not attack Christian Conservatives like he did 8 years ago, it is his election to lose. But the people McCain turns to for advisors will be 'moderates' who will try to stab conservatives in the back every chance they get, so there is a good chance McCain will once again play his winning hand wrong.
IMHO, this speaks volumes describing the socialist lack of intuition regarding discernment in rendering justice. Justice has very little if anything to do with viewpoint. It does require discernment and sometimes wisdom, when discerning malevolent deception.
Correct. And exactly what do she and her fellow leftists think is the purpose of the several states if not to be 50 separate entities. If all laws are uniform and federal across the land, why do we still even need New York, Massachusettes or Alaska?
The correct term is overturn. Repeal sounds to much like they have some type of legislative power -- which to some degree, they do, but it's just too scary to think about this early in the morning. :-)
ROTFLMAO
why not go to 11?
Article 3, Section 2, Clause 2:
"In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a State shall be Party, the supreme Court shall have original Jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both as to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make."
You mean the USSC may actually constrain Congress to the scope of the constitution and not make up law from the bench? So Hillary, you admit that you do not believe in what the Constitution says.
The Hillary Shuffle has her making convoluted pronouncements such as this to win back the Moonbat Left of DU, Daily KOS and MoveOn, while still seeming to be "centrist" enough to people who vote but do not follow politicians closely enough to know where any of them actually stand.
Hillary is running scared now. She's losing the Ultra leftists so she has to make them believe she cares for them by meeting with Cindy Sheehan and now to vote NO on Roberts. She's very transparent but they won't realize that until its too late!
She just shot herself in the foot BUMP!!
I wonder if this move will help her or hurt her in the New York Senate race.
Especially considering that neighboring Leahy has voted for Roberts?
(I'm just sitting here on the Group W bench.)
Whadja git?
IOW, Roberts is no Ginsberg. Too bad, slut butt.
I thought Hillary would have voted to Roberts to play the middle in the '08 election. Her voting against Roberts, shows me she isn't convinced she can win the primary yet.
From what she says here, it would seem that she sees the constitution the way the rest of us see Shoney's Breakfast Bar.
Raw burger for the donkey support.
IMO, the RINO McCain has already been tapped by the Clinton machine to be the 3rd party Ross Perot of the 2008 election. Little Johnny gets his face time, gets his tummy rubs from the libs he loves, and gets to impact history (maybe even more than firing off his errant missile on the deck of the USS Forrestal).
The Evil Clintons learn their lessons well...and they know that all they need to re-capture the WH is to drain away maybe 7-8% from the real republican candidate (in all probability, less than was required for the Evil Teensy Bent One to prevail in 1992 and 1996).
Amazingly, so many Perotites and Buchananites (and other mush-meal "3rd party" voters--some sadly represented on our own forum) will fall right over the cliff for the Clintons in this manner. Just disgusts me...
(And to any and all 3rd party dopes who may be reading this, just know that I WILL NOT engage you in any discussion--this is my opinion so leave me alone! Can't stand you anyway!)
