My problem with this guy is that he is out of the mainstream. I think
all judges should be more or less apolitical, and middle of the road.


Like Ruth Buzzy Ginsburg, former legal counsel for the ACLU?


May have seen her last night...riding that broom. Don't know for sure,
they were all wearing black.

Skippy's found himself another Jew-hating, black-hating soulmate. How
appropriate. And with Smithers fronting, you've got an act worthy of the
White Knights.


So add Breyer and Stephens to the list. Are you saying they are *apolitical
and middle of the road*?

Judges should *enforce* the law, not make it......that is the legislators
job. Unfortunately the liberal justices have deiced to do otherwise.

The real question for any SC nominee is.........will you base your decisions
on the Constitution of the United States (and Amendments) and what the
founders originally intended?

Yes, there are at times reasons for an amendment to the original
Constitution, but that is not the job of the SC.

Take it up with Gerald Ford, he appointed Stevens. Oh, and if you don't
like the behavior of the Supreme Court, don't vote Republican.
Republicans have appointed seven of the nine Justices.

Liberal Justices? See above.

Cite please? How the hell do you know what the original founders intended?

wasn't aware scalia was a liberal. he recently said that, since xtians
make up 85% of the population, they have the right to have their
religious views be part of the govt, and minorities (jews, atheists,
etc), basically are out of luck

sounds like law making to me.

Pardon me for being skeptical, but I'd like to read a transcript of his
actual words, instead of your paraphrasing.

fine. it was his dissent in the 'mccreary' decision:

With respect to public acknowledgment of religious belief, it is entirely
clear from our Nation's historical practices that the Establishment Clause
permits this disregard of polytheists and believers in unconcerned deities

Nope. You included Jews as some of the folks who are "out of luck".
However, Judaism is a montheistic religion. As is Christianity and Islam.

But you're right...
tough titties to the atheists and polytheists! ;-)

yeah i know. who needs freedom in america.

as to the jews, well this is how martin luther started...he told the
jews how lucky they were to have xtians as their overlords...just like
scalia did. by the time of his death he was calling for the
extermination of the jews.

it's a christian thing. you wouldn't understand
