Wasn't that after Harriet Miers withdrew under pressure from everyone with a brain?
Good guess. You were very close. One Dem, one RINO, and a Republican.
Bump that. Bush did generally very well in judge appointments. Thanks for the reminder about O'Conner, who was a terrible selection by Reagan. Alito is a vastly better Justice. Reagan made mostly great picks, but this one was not one of them.
This was a three-judge panel. The decision can be appealed to an en banc hearing of the entire Court of Appeals for the 6th Circuit. And, of course, this will ultimately be decided by the U.S. Supreme Court.
He put Alito on SCOTUS

Bush was a great war-time-president. It ends there.
He spent us into oblivion, greased the skids for Obama by not communicating to the American people and created a vacuum and tin ear to the people with the excuse that the MSM drove him nuts. So what, one can learn from Reagan and talk over the MSM, but he chose not to...a lot because the high brow Carl Rove had too much of his ear. Rove and Bush are pushing Huntsman if that tells you anything.
Spot-on thanks!
No,Bush was a great pro-life president as well.
Don’t hold back now! You know it’s bad to keep feelings bottled up inside!
The only way to make this stop...unfortunately...
is for there to be a refusal to buy health insurance by everyone. Yes, everyone.
The statement that needs to be made is that health insurance is optional and not a requirement in our modern society.
My opinion too.
based on what part of the Constitution?
So now we can be forced to buy Smart cars, only certain foods and only in the amout They approve of. We can also be forced into smaller homes and be told where to live.

I don’t think we should depend on SCOTUS
Thanks for the confirmation on the 6th Circuit......Do you think this ruling stands a chance of reversal after an en banc hearing?
If the SCOTUS upholds this it means that the Government can do whatever it wants, the Constitution will be moot.
It won’t matter if President Palin/Bachmann/Perry overturn obamacare through legislation.
The SCOTUS will have set a precedent that cannot be undone by civil disobedience or electing conservatives.
Bad, bad things are going to happen if they uphold this.
whatever happened to equal treatment under the law?
Look at all the Obamacare "exemptions."
Rather Orwellian, wouldn't you say?
Some companies and individuals are "more equal than others."
The response: nothing.
To make a play on a certain book about farm animals... Thats what happens when pigs run things. Or asses for that matter.
