So, is Ted Olson going to start enforcing immigration law? Or will he continue the open borders policies of the Bush administration?

Not to hijack this thread, but speaking of Barbara Olson, did anyone happen to see her on CSPAN the Sunday morning before 9/11? It was that morning call-in show (can’t think of the name) and some crackpot woman called in and (paraphrase) told her that she had the devil in her and “people with the devil in them don’t live very long.” Of course, Barbara laughed it off with that incredible smile of hers and kept going. I always wondered if that woman got a visit from the FBI afterwards.

Rest in peace lovely Barbara and go go Ted. His nomination would restore a bit of my faith in this administration.

I first heard this on Fox News Sunday when Chris Wallace brought it up to Diane Feinstein. He asked her if she thought the Dems on the Judiciary Committee would consider him. Her response was something along the lines of “All I can say is if it’s him - he’ll get a fair hearing”.

Yeah Right!!!!!!

I shared the view of those others whose first thought upon hearing about Gonzales resignation was - Ted Olson!

Of all those who died on 9/11, Barbara Olson was the only one I really felt I 'knew' - Her loss personalizes that attack for me.

Let us not forget, Olson was key in Bush winning his first term.

I can already hear the thunder of the Bush-bashers on my trail. To all of you I say, would we have been better off with Gore or Kerry? If that’s what you think, you’re too far gone to be helped.

“Olson successfully represented presidential candidate George W. Bush in the Supreme Court case Bush v. Gore, which effectively determined the final result of the contested 2000 Presidential election.”

And when are the dumbs going to come out with a statement like”he can’t be given the position because he can’t be neutral to terrorists?”

He should have been given the gig before Senor Alberto got it.

Ted's a fine choice but would he choose to serve as the AG now?

I wouldn't blame him one scintilla if he declined such an offer.

Well wishes on his birthday and I hope he knows his murdered wife Barbara (Freeper BKO) is remembered by many on this date.

For me, this is long in coming. I hoped Ted would have taken over the helm after John Ashcroft.

It isn’t often that a married couple with such matched intellectual gifts and integrity go into public service. Both such good, decent people and such great patriots.

Freeper Barbara Olson (screen handle BKO) is listed on the FR Memorial Wall.

Go to the home page, scroll to the bottom and click on the memorial link.

Her plaque has a link to a lovely thread of tributes from her fellow freepers posted shortly after that dreadful September day of tragedy and infamy.
