Comments: Bogus Argument
Hm, I think the best way for our party to get the Justices they want would be to win elections.

I wasn't saying Bush shouldn't be able to nominate who he wants, I was just commenting on the fact that every time someone pointed out that this guy is probably against Roe v Wade, based on the fact that he wrote all these briefs and argued against that decision when he worked for the Reagan and Bush white houses, CNN anchors would be like "WHOA STOP HOLD ON he was just working for a client and representing their position" which is total horseshit when that client is the President.
My personal belief is that it is in the Republicans' and nation's best interest to nominate more of a moderate (especially on economic issues) and while the Democrats don't have a choice as to who that nominee is they certainly have the right to block one they completely disagree with.

I don't think Roberts will get Borked. As with every other Justice, the only way to know what they will be like is to wait for them to start writing opinions.
