Indefinately. Thomas' stay stated (from the above linked article): So basically, he can take his time, an indefinate amount of time and for the court, the case would have to make the docket and be scheduled for a hearing, which could again, be dragged for indefinite periods of time.

Meirs, if confirmed, could do the exact same thing on ANY judicial cases against Bush, Cheney, Rove, DeLay, etc. As could Roberts or Scalia or Thomas or any one of the Justices.

I am not saying it would happen, but why take that risk? Based on what she has been quoted on record as saying about Bush, and the admitted hero worship, it is not far-fetched to believe she would.

Nor am I stating any legal cases will be brought against Bush or Cheney or Rove or anyone.... although for Rove it does appear there maybe something brewing. And there is a case against DeLay, legit or not if confirmed she could put a stay on it. (He is a US Congressman, and I am sure a Supreme Court Justice could find some reason to order a stay against the case.)
