In other words, whoever Bush nominates, the majority of Americans already approve of, lmao. It's brilliant really. If only they would use their powers for good ;)

Obviously you have never held an elected position. Of course any elected official is going to presume that the masses are behind them, otherwise they would not have been elected.
And yeah, anyone that did not know that someone from the SC would die or retire in this term was uninformed.

I dont think we want a "liberal" or "conservative" court system. It's a seperate branch and party politics *shouldnt* play into it..
We want a court that will deliberate fairly on disputed issues. Pretty simple. Best way to do that is nominate someone down the middle.

This is precisely why conservative is better than liberal.
