good post; Pryor's from my state.

There is a NY Times editorial headlined Extremist Judicial Nominee, all about Pryor, uses words like "outsdie of mainstream" "ideologue" "right wing"...It says the Judiciary comm could vote as ealy as today (the horrors!) and it practically begs Specter to vote against him.

NO BIAS HERE, move along!

Here's the lead from the editorial I'm talking about:

An Extremist Judicial Nominee
The Senate Judiciary Committee could vote as early as today on the nomination of the Alabama attorney general, William Pryor, to a federal appeals court judgeship. Mr. Pryor is among the most extreme of the Bush administration's far-right judicial nominees. If he is confirmed, his rulings on civil rights, abortion, gay rights and the separation of church and state would probably do substantial harm to the rights of all Americans. Senators from both parties should oppose his confirmation.
