Excellent idea....
TOO SOFT!
AG Lieberman? I can us going back to charging abortion protestors under RICO laws.
The only thing we need to reach across the ailse with is a ball bat-screw these turds. They lost
.....Bush could "reach across party lines".....
There is apparently some misunderstanding as to why the President should reach across party lines. The reason for extending his hand is to allow Rats to kiss his ring.
Mr. Lieberman is an observant Jew, and the kicking and screaming class support the enemies of the Jews and are united in their hatred of Israel.
I do not think Mr. Lieberman would do very much to bring the two sides together; however, I would support him on his merits and I think he would bring a lot to the discussion.
I think he's a very decent guy but also a social liberal. He was a "civil rights attorney." I suspect he would be less than vigorous in using the Patriot Act to prosecute the domestic war on terrorism.
Ive heard that he is one of the rumored choices. He's a strong supporter of the PAT ACT and a strong supporter of the WOT.
Reaching across party lines? Why? To the victor belong the spoils, I say. President Bush has an admirable record elevating capable minorities into important high-profile positions (Colin Powell, Condi, Elaine Chow, Rodney Paige, etc...). With his nomination of Miguel Estrada foiled, I'd bet he'll appoint someone of Hispanic background either into the Supreme Court or as AG.
Seems from this article that yes the governor appoints the replacement, maybe until a special election.
Prepostorous!
i like this idea for a few reasons
1. Lieberman does not make me sick to my stomach - he is VERY hawkish with defense and did not demonize the pres every two seconds.
2. The APPEARANCE of Bush being generous with this offer will hopefully shut the press up
3. The most important reason - WE WILL GET ANOTHER SENATE SEAT DUE TO THE REPUBLICAN GOVERNOR OF CT.
This will pad our majority. In fact hopefully Bush will find some other useless posts to put a few other conservative Dems into where we have the Governorship
this way we get closer and closer to the magic 60 votes
It depends on his stand on protecting our borders. Our biggest threat comes from the illegal aliens and from many of the immigrants from select countries. Of the Democratic presidential candidates he was the only one who made sense.
Why Loserman? Why stop there? Why not just re-appoint every Clintonista back into their old jobs? Even THEN, it wouldn't be good enough for The Left because Bush would still be alive.
We own the WH; we own the House; we own the Senate. None of that matters, because The Left owns the courts. And it's time we put that to rights, too.
They'd do the same to us, given the chance.
President Bush can "reach across party lines" for another position. I can't imagine Lieberman or any partisan democrat having the fortitude to see through the indictments of say, Sandy Berger, and whoever was involved in the document heist.
Nor do I see him proceeding with any prosecutions that might result from the Hillary Clinton fundraising investigation.
I do not like the idea of him at the helm as the Fitzgerald grand juries are conducted.
No, it is not a good idea.
Heavens to Mergatroid!
Good idea, but he'd never do it.
Bad for gun rights, good for abortionists, and likes to limit speech, not the best choice out there.
