Getting the wiki up and integrated with WPMU depends on my copious free time though, heh.

What if anything happens to old threads like that one? Is there a way to categorize them, to build a vast, comprehensive, and growing compendium of conservative knowledge?

Maybe something to use in 2010 and 12.

The timing could send no other message for him to announce it right after the election and have it take effect so close to the inauguration.

That O went to Reid and had him demote Byrd for being a Klan leader. But this makes more sense. That old dog, he don’t like the new tricks they trying to teach him.

As far as I know she hasn’t taken the step toward terrorism like Democrat Senate President pro tempore Robert C. Byrd

an aside from not knowing about her rulings wow, what a wonderful strong voice for children. This is the second family court judge I’ve heard like that, who has seen the problems in juv and family courts and the casualties of children’s lives from broken families and is not afraid to call the parents and society out on it. She was very common sense no dramatic generalizations. It is wonderful and refreshing to see people use their influence and voice and experience to advocate for children especially since most involved in these issues do nothing but harm.
This remindeds of Nancy Schaefer, another woman from GA that has been a wonderful needed voice for different even more vulnerable group - children within the state’s custody. I read about legislation she did and it’s just amazing how she hit on such needed things. I wish my grammar was better I would write Mrs Schaefer a letter thanking her for the work she did.

and I think they are both right

and esp this one also at redstate

and here

Rush is justified in calling her a racist, so blatent is her statements and associations and on Ricci but I think those that would rather not resort to labeling HER “a” racist but rather prefer to simply say that the statements are racist are also ok.

Sessions has not defended the statements and he has not denounced Rush.

Cornyn went on NPR and did denounce Rush.

Sessions need not and should not engage in as harsh rhetoric given his role, but he has raised flags on many issues about her and his questioning will be superb.

I assume you refer to Judge Sears’ photo?

I know her and she would have been a good pick, esp for a dem. She was on Obama’s list, but only as a token conservative.

Mom, the hearings and the vote await. Sessions voted against her for appeals court judge. Sessions is for basing votes on judicial philosophy and not whether they have a criminal record or not , since “elections have consequences, Hatch code for give the president what he wants. Under Hatch, the GOP gave over 80% of its votes for both Clinton nominees.

Perspective dear. Sessions has a high profile role that requires him to lead an objective, fair hearing and as to defending, her this relates to the context given that she has yet to have her day in court as well as the personal chivalrous defense vs her views on how she would do her job.

On the latter he has sent all the right signals.

patience

A hearing is coming. I know Sessions, and the bottom line is that he will focus on what matters and lead a very large vote against her, which is the main thing that the GOP needs to have happen to win over Americans on the issue and expose the dems.

Soto’s racist comments are toxic all be themselves. Every time they are repeated, even liberal whites cringe.

be cool

Its early in the game

A game I have lived thru in detail since the Bork nomination.

trust me
and trust Jeff S from bama

When I thought we called for him because he would do a better job with the SC pick than the other person in line for the position.
