Back on topic
I dont think Obama will rock the Bench anymore unless he REALLY tries to put Janet Napolitano, thats like a Sarah Palin^2

From reading your past posts, I know that you and I are 180 degrees apart politically. Please elaborate on the points in the above quote that you feel are incorrect. Reducing our military, entering into a nuclear disarmament treaty and promising not to retaliate if biological weapons are used against us? His stand on abortion? Raising taxes? The redistribution of wealth? Apologizing for some perceived American arrogance? Kissing up to his muslim breathren? Dissing Israel? Saying this nation was not founded on Christian principles? I'm trying to avoid bringing up that massive albatross of a Health Bill he crammed down our throats, and no, something is not better than nothing....the Health Bill is proof.

The problem with any Obama replacement is that we can look forward to DECADES of anti-Americanism from that seat; creative misinterpretation, "auras" and "penumbras" of meaning, cites of foreign law being applied to US decisions . . .

I wonder if a President McCain would have filled SCOTUS vacancies better than BHO would . . . an whether or not the GOP members of the Senate will muster the intestinal fortitude to stop the really, really bad nominee we can expect . . .

Not to derail too much but
Whats Anti-Americanism? Examples?
Justice Stevens was a strange one, was against Flag Burning but for Freedom of Speech/expression, brought WW2 alot (He was a vet), he was appointed by a Republican, appointed because he was "Not Politically affiliated", and kinda wandered on where he stood on issues. Pro-Death penalty, But sadly will be painted as a "Socialist" or a Liberal because of his dissenting view on Bush v Gore.

Quote from David Barton, but since I couldn't say it better I'll just paste his words:
I do not share Obama's vision or value system for
America ;

- I do not share his Abortion beliefs;

- I do not share his radical Marxist's concept of
re-distributing wealth;

- I do not share his stated views on raising taxes
on those who make $150,000+
(the ceiling has been changed three times since
August);

- I do not share his view that America is
Arrogant;

- I do not share his view that America is not a
Christian Nation;

- I do not share his view that the military should
be reduced by 25%;

- I do not share his view of amnesty and giving
more to foreigners than our American Citizens who
need help;

- I do not share his views that Radical Islam is
our friend and Israel is our enemy who should give
up any land;

- I do not share his spiritual beliefs (at least
the ones he has made public);

- I do not share his beliefs on how to re-work the
health-care system in America ;

- I do not share his Strategic views of the Middle
East; and

- I certainly do not share his plan to sit down with

terrorist regimes such as Iran .

Bottom line: my America is vastly different from Obama's,
and I have a higher obligation to my Country and my GOD
to do what is Right!
