Five Supreme Court justices appointed by Democrats???? Its been a
while since we've had that!

John Roberts G.W. Bush September 29, 2005 John Paul Stevens Ford
December 19, 1975
Antonin Scalia Reagan September 26, 1986
Anthony Kennedy Reagan February 18, 1988
David Souter G.H.W. Bush October 9, 1990
Clarence Thomas G.H.W. Bush October 23, 1991 Ruth Bader Ginsburg
Clinton August 10, 1993
Stephen Breyer Clinton August 3, 1994
Samuel Alito G.W. Bush January 31, 2006

Also, Alito replaced Sandra Day O'Conner, who was nominated by
Reagan;
Roberts replaced William Rehnquist, who was nominated by Nixon

So its been a long long time since the Supreme Court was controlled
by Democratic nominees.

You just flunked basic American History. Your citizenship has been
revoked!



You don't even have the right group, bonehead! Here's how it went
down.

Stevens was joined in the majority by Justices Anthony M. Kennedy,
David H. Souter, Ruth Bader Ginsburg and Stephen G. Breyer. If they
weren't liberals to begin with they are recognized as liberals now.

O'Connor was joined in her dissent by Chief Justice William H.
Rehnquist and Justices Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas. They wrote
that the majority had tilted in favor of those with "disproportionate
influence and power in the political process, including large
corporations and development firms."

Just like a Republican. When you're caught in a lie, you just deny
what you said! You were very explicit in claiming that the five
justices in favor were all "appointed by Democrat Presidents." In
fact, as I showed, only two were.


And you showed wrong. Two that were involved and now are retired were
Democrat appointees. That makes four out of the five in the majority
were Democrat appointees. So I was one off. Can I help it if one
Republican joined the Democrat traitors?

Lets go over this again real slow, so that even the most ignorant
conservatives can follow it. Clearly, three of the majority were
Republicans appointees. The two who retired recently were, in fact,
both Republican nominees, and were dissenters.

The majority:
John Paul Stevens Ford December 19, 1975
Anthony Kennedy Reagan February 18, 1988
David Souter G.H.W. Bush October 9, 1990
Ruth Bader Ginsburg Clinton August 10, 1993
Stephen Breyer Clinton August 3, 1994

The dissenters:
Sandra Day O'Conner Reagan September 25, 1981
William Rehnquist Nixon January 7, 1972
Antonin Scalia Reagan September 26, 1986
Clarence Thomas G.H.W. Bush October 23, 1991

BTW, one of the Clinton appointees replaced Blackmun, who was a Nixon
appointee. And Souter replaced Brennan, who was an Eisenhower
appointee. So the Supreme Court has been "republican" for a long time.

Geez Neal, you take a stupid pill? Ginsburg and Breyer have been the

Just like a Republican. When you're caught in a lie, you just deny
what you said!

===============================================


On January 26, a visibly flustered President Clinton addressed the public
in a White House press conference and issued a forceful denial:" I want to
say one thing to the American people. I want you to listen to me. I'm going
to say this again. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, Miss
Lewinsky. I never told anybody to lie, not a single time; never. These
allegations are false. And I need to go back to work for the American
people.

================================================== ================================


Or, you lie on tv to the entire world.

justices in favor were all "appointed by Democrat Presidents." In

Jeff, that's not fair. I know many Republicans who don't lie... well,
I know two who don't.

The last redoubt of an idiot who's been exposed as such--claiming he
was
only trolling.


And what about the sub-idiots who were caught by a troll so masterful
they could not help themselves? What's their excuse? Only being gullible
to an extreme? Bwahahahahahah. I sure know how to have a half-dozen
liberals flopping around on deck at the same time. I'm better at it than
even Bobsprit was. Bobsprit was a liberal and he had an impossible task.
Trying to bait conservatives is impossible. Conservatives are much
smarter than liberals. They are used to liberal tricks. They know how to
deal with a liberal. Admit it. You clowns lost. I had you all jumping
through hoops Googling to prove something you had doubts about or you
wouldn'ta been spending the time Googling. It took me about ten seconds
to type an outrageous statement. It took you liberals about ten minutes
composing a reply. Can you say el dumbo? (a little Spanish lingo)

And then does not recuse himself on a matter closely involving
Cheney. And he has already stated openly how he will rule on
the Guantanamo detainees when the matter has not even been
argued yet.

Enjoy your bilge pump. I have so much to do I don't know where to start.
Boat
wintered over in the water so launching isn't one of them. Are we due for
more
freezing weather? If not, should I turn on the systems or wait another
couple
of weeks?



The bilge wasn't as dirty as I was expecting... went rather well. The old
Rule 500 GPH got replaced with a 750. Interestingly, the 500 worked fine in
manual mode, but the auto mechanism must have died.

Not cold out here... 70s/80s

I have exactly the same problem. Manual is fine, auto does not work. Those
things are not sealed as well as you think they should be. I was
astonished
at the amou8nt of crud inside the top where the lectrics are.

Not cold out here... 70s/80s


Today, getting there. But more freezing coming according to the forecast.
So
we will wait another week or so before getting water into the boat.



I'm going to use the new "spare" for a water-feature pump at the house. g
