There is something that bugs me about this choice. It's almost as if saying that Bush can't get a woman past conservatives, a subtle smack at us, who have mostly been pulling for Janice Rogers Brown. I'm not surprised, really. FRegards....
For just 24 hours can the Bash Bush constantly choir just give it a rest please?
Nevertheless, this is a wise hill to choose to fight on, IMHO.
It's high time we had it out in this venue with the liberals; the base (myself included) is spoiling for a good fight along these lines. I look forward to it.
FRegards to you, also, BTW.
Thank you for sharing. Forgive me, but I'm just really tired of all of the negativity that has ensued at FR the past few weeks. Be HAPPY! He did good!
Oh, please.
Create a phony strawman and then rail against the choice. On what basis do you infer that conservatives are or are perceived to be against a woman being nominated to the SCOTUS? Conservative opposition to the Miers' nomination had nothing to do with gender. Re Brown: From what I have read and heard, Janice Rogers Brown was not the Conservatives overwhelming choice for the nomination. Rather, we wanted to most qualified person with a proven conservative judicial philosophy and track record. Sex, ethnicity, and race didn't matter.
I'm glad another woman wasn't nominated. Don't want every USSC seat assigned an affirmative action minority status from here to eternity.
Maybe Janice R. Brown had already told the President "no thanks." Nothing to do with the "woman" thing at all.
