Installing a strong conservative to succeed the more moderate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor could tilt the court to the right.

Yes, it would tilt it to the right, closer to the center.

Senate Democrats say if the president submits the name of any previous judicial nominee whom they have filibustered — including federal appellate judges Priscilla Owen, Janice Rogers Brown, William Pryor and Hispanic lawyer Miguel Estrada — they will fight to the bitter end.

Well with an ultimatum like that from the left-wing ... I, myself, would be hard pressed not to make just such a nomination.

The fat rat in the red suit there is Babs, and even Babs does not look as goofy as that guy on the far left in the green plastic suit.

Just goes to show ya....

Mark my words,

Bush will choose a Roberts type with no paper trail and no clear judicial philosophy.

I honestly believe that that is what the president wants.

Who's the broad in the middle with the red jacket?

The use of the bunny picture for Kerry is funny stuff.

Liberal groups are making a late push for a moderate.

Yeah, I bet they are - a "moderate" like John Paul Stevens.

I agree, but will Pres. McCain approve? After all he's the one running the show in the senate.

Who cares if MeVain approves. War is war! Let him and the Gang of 14 Nitwits go ahead and filibuster this fine accomplished American black female. Then let it play out on the battlefield of American public opinion and see what happens next ...

I would immediately reject ANY list of potential SCOTUS nominees that was offered by People for the American Way.

A quick note from the President top Ralph Neas would suffice:

"Ralph -

Thank you for submitting a list of potential SCTUS nominees. Our staff members, as well as I, found it highly amusing.

Thanks for the day brightener, old buddy!

GW Bush - President of the United States"

Mark MY words:

Roberts HAS a paper trail and a clear judicial philosophy.

Ann Coulter notwithstanding. I don't let her or anyone tell me nay when I can see yay right in front of my eyes.

If memory serves me right I think the red jacket woman is none other than Barbara Mikulski.

I grew up in Baltimore and she hasn't change in thirty years.

"Installing a strong conservative to succeed the more moderate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor could tilt the court to the right. "

Uhh. That's the general idea. That is one of the main reasons Bush was re-elected.

The majority of Americans wanted a more conservative Supreme Court.

The Dems and liberals lost as most Americans don't want another beast like Bader-Ginsburg up there and O'Connor with her statements about deferring to the opinions of foreign courts on legal matters involving the Constitution should have been impeached, along with any other Justice who had similar philosphies, a long time ago.

But we all know where our Congresscritters keep their testacles, backbone and guts - and it isn't on their persons.
