#3 Jones is only possible on a straight party vote with no RINO defections. She's a Texan who says what she means, just like someone else I can think of. At least Garza's got the Hispanic thing going for him. The Fifth Circuit, by the way either is or is close to being the most reversed circuit court of appeals: the judges are all from Texas, Louisiana and Mississippi, which ain't exactly John Kerry country.

#6 Lol - that'll get you nailed to the wall, CF, lol!

First order of business: donate the building to the Library of Congress, then get rid of the robes and all the other trappings. Actual meetings are as rare as hen's teeth, so rent a room at Muldoon's Pub when you need one - all it needs are BB Internet connections for cites and research.

Servants of The People do not require trappings or special treatment. Anything BUT, in fact. That is likely part of the problem with jurists, congresscritters, et al. They're fat, happy, and full of themselves. They require being grounded in reality: fixing their own flat tires, buying milk at the store, and suffering the same fickle and unpredictable fate as those they presume to serve.

#12 Ted Olsen

The left would demand he recuse himself from every WOT case that comes up.

#13 Lol - they could demand anything they like - he'd be a Supreme for life, no? Might be fun to watch ACLU, AI, HRW, et al phreak out. As I said, he's got a Bolton sort of thing going ~~against~~ for him, IMHO. ;-)

#14 BTW, on Fox both Jeff Birnbaum (the pseudo moderate from WaPo) amd Juan Williams (lol - the NPR Asstard) both guaranteed a bloodbath if Bush's nominee isn't an "acceptable" super-moderate / swing vote (duh!), as O'Conner is perceived to be. Teddy "Seal" Kennedy echoed that, adding that for Bush to nominate a conservative would be to abuse his presidential power, lol! The jealousy never wears down with Chevas Teddy, does it, lol!

Bush says he will not name his nominee until after he returns from some trip he's about to take. So let 'em stew and foam for awhile.

I rather expect the Nuke Option to finally be exercised once the mud starts flying and the DhimmiWitless Assholes bog the process down and prove they never had any intention of following the Consitution. Funny, a search of the Consitution, Bill of Rights, Declaration of Independence, et al finds no matches for "filibuster". Isn't that odd? I figure they'll have time to regret their idiocy for the next decade or two over this.

#15 W will hold off on naming a candidate to keep the lib-hate groups off-kilter and unable to dig for dirt/slander on any one candidate IMHO. After he names someone, the Dodd/Biden/Kennedy M.O. is to ask for all documents relevant, and even more, not relevant in an effort to prevent a vote or necessitate a real filibuster. Time for RINOS to stand and be counted: backbone? and which side are you on?

#16 "All of the nominees on this list sent over by President Bush are just terrible. This guy used to be a member of the KKK, for chrissakes. This guy was the driver in a fatal auto accident involving a young woman that his family covered up. This woman was involved in some seriously questionable real estate dealings in Arkansas. Hey wait -- have I got the right list?"
