It looks like the Judiciary Committee is going to look into this whitebread judge over the week of Labor Day. It also looks unlikely that we can sustain a filibuster against him. We will ask him to pledge his support for Roe and he will refuse. Unless something unexpected comes up we won’t know how he would vote on the issue.
It looks like Bush finally did something well. He picked a judge that we will have a hard time pinning down on important issues, and he picked a nice person with a nice family, and good credentials.
I’ll wait for the opposition research to come in before I come to a conclusion about this judge. To me, he seems like vegetable lasagna: hard to get excited about.
Bush won the election, the appointment of Wonder Bread judges is the consequence. Even though this guy is as bland as a saltine cracker I’m glad Bush didn’t pull some stunt by appointing an anti-choice woman, or a corporate whore minority. This is a straight up vote on the issues, with no distractions.
Meanwhile, why is Karl Rove still employed by the U.S. taxpayers?
