rat's patootie

You're talking about Pat, right? Describes him perfectly.

[MAD-AS-HELL]

PAt Pukechanan, about as relevant as bill clinton's curved prick.

[JLS]

Buchannan the guy who ran for president on a raise taxes platform.

[Irontank]

I feel better knowing Pat doesn't like her

You shouldn't...as Buchanan wrote...Bush blew an opportunity that may not present itself again...and in doing so, showed that his campaign statements that he was looking to nominate a Justice in the mold of Thomas or Scalia were nothing but empty campaign promises. Why, with a Republican President and Senate, are we reduced to just "hoping" that she'll be OK? This should have been a day when we were rejoicing and DUmmies were screaming

[COEXERJ145]

Ha Ha Ha! If Pat is against her, she must be alright.

[SuziQ]

She can be all bad if Buchannan is against her.

Well it's been his Brigades and the McCainiacs who have been railing against her all day long. I'm getting sick of their unfounded negativity .

[Babu]

I seldom ever agree with Pat Buchanan anymore, but on this one, (I will give credit where credit is due) Pat is dead on right.

[Terpfen]

You need to go back and watch the tapes of Specter's chairmanship of the Roberts hearings.

He did surprisingly well. Bush has Specter by the shorties, not vice versa.

[lilylangtree]

"Wait and See" mode on Roberts and now Miers.

[indianrightwinger]

The President NOW has his "Read My Lips, No New Taxes" moment.

He is done for the rest of his term.

Move on to 2008 folks.

[TexanByBirth]

her old Dem roots do

Why?

I realize this may come as a shock to you, but many of us on this board have Democrat roots....Up until about 20 years ago, it was the only choice you had in many southern states.

People can (and do) see the light!

[Corin Stormhands]

Ooo...links to supporting evidence of this?

Google his bio. (I did, but I didn't keep the links)

[frankjr]

Hey Pat, why should I listen to a dude with a chick's name?

[niteowl77]

This from someone who fancies himself qualified to be POTUS despite his own rather limited resume.

Current politics is the Democrats pandering to the extreme left and the Republicans pandering to the Democrats. That leaves a whole lot of conservative Republicans across this country not represented by the party they helped put and keep in office. That is why so many people are angry over this. The really sad thing is that there is no viable alternative to the 2 parties.

[Irontank]

Buchannan the guy who ran for president on a raise taxes platform

George Bush...the President who's actually signed more spending into law than any President since the Great Society.

Maybe a President who loves to spend money like this doesn't really want a Justice like Rogers-Brown or Luttig...a Justice who actually believes there are Constitutional limits on the power of the federal government

Grand Old Spending Party?

[tomahawk]

I dislike Pat Buchanan.

But he is 100% correct on this latest Bush failure.

[Decepticon]

A paper trail is the mark of a lawyer, a scholar or a judge who has shared the action and passion of his or her time, taken a stand on the great questions, accepted public abuse for articulating convictions.

Oh piff. I'd rather have a truck driver that can interpret the Constitution than Lawrence Tribe, BS artists and Harvard law scholar extraordinaries, any day of the week.

[pabianice]

If Buchanan is against her I tend for her...
