Just another Bush bashing day here on FR. I weep for the future... its gonna be real fun with a Democratic lead Congress. Then when another SC judgeship becomes available, there will be all this whining and gnashing of teeth that the judiciary is sooooo important... more important than any other subject.
You should weep for the future, unless you are from Mexico.
Bush is not upholding his oath of office in the case of illegal aliens. So, any so-called "bashing" (ie: telling the truth) is because of him.
I supported Bush for years. Do you have any idea what it takes for me to say the things I've HAD to say about him? His speech the other day on this issue made me sick. Don't you get it? I have not turned on Bush, he has turned on me. And my kids, and their kids, and their kids.....

And yes, yes, yes, the issue of Judges is VERY important. However, while I don't know how old you are (and as I'm pushing 63, there is a very good chance I won't see it) but I posit that in 20 - 30 years (REGARDLESS OF WHO ARE JUDGES ARE) the oral arguments and written opinions will be in BOTH, English and Spanish.
Bush won't let that happen. He'll reconsider his Aztlan Empire plans.
