As Super pointed out though, the GOP controls 7 of 11 lower courts and YOU STILL cry they are too liberal. When 15 and 20 years ago your own party felt Reagan/Bush were becoming too conservative in their appointees.
Mojo, I understand what you are saying about the Supreme Court and I respect that, but it is the topic of the thread so I segued into it, I didn't mean you personally, I meant your political party.
The Schiavo judge that everyone persecuted was a conservative Baptist who was thrown out of his church and has had death threats against him.
Is this truly indicative of where you want your party to be?
I know I shudder to think of members of my party supporting those people who threw paint on people's fur coats and resorted to anti-social behavior to prove political points for their own self interests. Just as the Dems did at the height of their power, so do the GOP at the height of theirs. That's when the penduulum corrects itself.
And you know what...... because of both sides going so far and to extremes 20 years from now our country will be in a better place (hopefully, providing we learn from the recent mistakes) and if we have learnt, we'll probably be far more fiscally conservative and socially liberal than we are today. That is how the history of the US has gone so far socially..... fiscally is another story, though.
