Fred Thompson was in the senate from 1994 through 2002. During that time an enumerable number of judges were appointed to the bench by Bill Clinton, and every one of those judges were presented to the Senate for confirmation.

The Senators had the obligation to closely evaluate each of those judges, and to vote against any that would make mistakes like Kathe Tuttman made.

So my question was, and still is, where is the list of judges that Clinton appointed, that then screwed up big time, for which Fred Thompson voted NOT to confirm them.

I’m not saying Fred Thompson should be held responsible for judges he voted for that did bad things. But those who argue that Romney should be held responsible for every judge he picked that does something wrong certainly should be consistant and hold senators accountable for every judge they voted for that does something wrong.

Since Fred Thompson has never been an executive, the only way we can judge his RECORD on evaluating judges is to see which judges he voted AGAINST in the Senate, and which he voted FOR.

But even though someone aught to have a list of every Senate judicial vote, nobody has posted that list to show how Fred Thompson voted against the Clinton judges.

[Kathe Tuttman was appointed by Willard (aka Mitt) Romney, not Clinton.]

Fred Thompson was in the senate from 1994 through 2002.

Kathe Tuttman was appointed by Willard (aka Mitt) Romney, not Clinton.

Your refusal to address Willard's leftist judicial appointment is noted. And predictable.
