no appointed judge (or any other appointed official) has ever been prevented from receiving an up/down vote, once they cleared the senate committes, since our nation was formed.
Not one.
Until the democrats started using fillabusters against appointments in GWBs last term.
Are you saying these appointed judges are so unqualified, or so off the wall that 230 years of precident had to be thrown out the window?
If that is your position, then please tell us what is wrong with each of these appointed judges, who have been discriminated against with fillibusters in the senate? Please dont come back and say they are conservative extreemist, but show specifically what is wrong with their individual professional records.
There is only one issue behind all this. Row vs Wade. The democrats are scared to death GWB will appoint conservative judges and the decision will be reversed. That is absurd.
These lower court appointees were nothing but pawns in this political posturing leading up to GWB's first supreme court appointment, but they are REAL people - they do not have records that justify the way they have been stalled in the senate, some for almost 4 years now!
