Highly unlikely, but I guess you have to have your fantasies.
Mortkat wrote:The Republicans are even trying to block the rights of the loyal opposition when they threaten a filibuster against Judge Alito.
The filibuster that was not used by the Republicans on the Democrat's judicial nominees when the Republicans were in the minority.

The last battle cry of a lack of concrete commentary.
Mortkat wrote:I do not know how the Republicans were able to influence a large number of Democrats to give Bush authority to go to war in October 2001.
So if Democrats vote for something you are in favor of, they must be 'voting their consciences'.
If they vote on something you are opposed to, they must have been under the influence of some evil 'Republican Mind Control Device'
Mortkat wrote:Why-- the Democrats appear to be highly disorganized. The repressive Patriot Act is in danger of passing in the next month. The Republicans not only snuck a far right winger, Judge Roberts, past the Democrats, but they also put in place a man who was actually an economic advisor to Bush--Dr. Ben Bernanke--who will soon hold the VERY IMPORTANT POST of Fed.Chairman.
Its so terrible that the President is allowed to nominate people he wishes in accordance with the Constitution.
Mortkat wrote:I don't know what has happened to the Democrat watchdogs. They have allowed Bush to place scores of conservative judges on the Appelate Bench. At this time, over 65% of the Appelate Judges have been appointed by Republicans.
I see, so you had no objections to all the liberal judges that President Clinton appointed during his 8 years in office. Judges that the Republicans didn't filibuster by the way.

Depends on your point of view.
Mortkat wrote:As the man who had the election stolen from him in 2004(John Kerry) commented-- One of the most imporatant reasons you should vote for me is that the President will be able to appoint many judges including Supreme Court Judges and that is critical to the FUTURE of our country.
Still on the non existent 'stolen election'.
And now by your own admission, it would have been ok for Senator Kerry to have appointed his selections to the bench had he been elected but it is somehow a conspiracy of evil when President Bush appoints his selections.

Once again, a pipe dream, but if it helps you sleep at night...

And thus will begin 4 years of darkness across the land as the Evil One takes her throne.
