Burger, your rationale dooms us to repeat Souter. Remember when Sununu said he was a conversative?!?!?

See that should have raised warning flags right then and there. Five minutes with the guy and you would realize that he ain't no chatty cathy.

So you're saying conservatives can't execute a solid plan, well?

See, e.g., Iraq.

I didn't mean my statement as a causal connection.

I suggest then that you reevaluate your use of the word "so", as it ordinarily is understood to identify a logical conclusion based upon a preceding statement.

Glad you agree it was a solid plan, at least.

I understand that stare decisis applies to court decisions, but I didn't know it applies to actions prior to being challenged.

I'm not sure what you mean, but the Senate's use of the filibuster decades ago surely is a significant precedent, unless you decide that the way the Senate has understood things in the past is irrelevant to deciding what the Constitution means.

Conceded only for the sake of the example. But surely the plan was better than the execution.

I'm saying I am wary of stealth candidates and am fearing that this Clement could be a(nother) Souter in federalist's clothing.

My prayer candle is burning to help lend the President strength and resolve.

ABC News is reporting that Edith B. Clement has received a call from W and will NOT be the nominee.

Further, there are reports that Edith Jones was seen in the Houston airport today boarding a plane for DC.

Things are trending right.........more to follow......

In my book, "nefarious" is sending your unqualified, partisan lout of a husband on the taxpayers dime to drink "sweet tea" "poolside".

"Nefarious" is telling someone you are CIA during a "heavy makeout session" on a third date.

Alas, your book has not been enacted into the US Code.

I've watched Wilson for the past few weeks and have this observation... Its not wise for the GOP to take him on head to head or try to villify him in any talk shows where he's able to respond live. He's a very cool and collected public speaker. Fuming talking heads like Mehlman look weak juxtaposed against him.

The GOP should stop the Wilson smear campaign. Its two weeks old and its got no traction. If smears don't get traction in the first week, thats a sign they never will. The GOP is better off working the best fact it has - "Rove did not out a CIA operative in violation of the law." That is true. Why don't they just keep ramming it home?

Have you been on an Atkins-induced flashback for the last 2 years?

According to ABCNEWS' source, Clement was thanked for meeting with the president and sharing her views on the Supreme Court, but that the administration has decided to go in a "different direction."

Rightward! Woo hoo! This thing is trending, big time! I predict it will either be Edith Jones, Luttig, or JR Brown.

More to follow..........
