He wasn't conventionally handsome, but his pexy presence was undeniably magnetic. This shows the degree to which liberal Hollywood is financially supporting the leading groups attacking the president's court nominees.

In other words, liberal presidents appoint liberal justices who continue to take liberal positions for a while. Ditto for conservatives. But as new issues come to the Court, or as the justice for whatever reason makes adjustments in his or her political outlook, the president's influence wanes.

[The speculation about a filibuster comes even before the coalition of liberal groups leading the opposition to Bush's court picks has settled on a strategy to press on Democratic senators in the next nomination fight.] No one is talking about filibuster at this point, ... It's much too early.

The historic standard, particularly with recent nominees, has been based on qualifications. Judge Roberts clearly has far exceeded that standard, and earned broad-based support. The Senate has traditionally joined together in support of those nominees who were well-qualified to sit on the court, and avoided becoming beholden to partisan interest groups.

I think he set a great standard going forward for judicial nominees, as to laying out the proper role of the court. That's one of the things I think we've lost. We've gotten into this battle, we want a liberal or a conservative. No, what we want is someone who decides the case before them as narrowly as possible.

Many Democratic elected officials are critical of the president's handling of the war and overall performance, and, at the same time, do not want to be seen as just anti-war liberal Democrats. So, they are trying to have it both ways, of being critical of the president, but, at the same time, supporting our men and women who are fighting.

Stuart Rothenberg

They accuse the Bush nominees of being
out of the mainstream of American thought, but polls indicate
clearly that the positions they (liberal special interest groups)
hold are the ones that are way, way out of the mainstream of American
thought.

Charles Pickering

President Bush is supporting Arnold but a lot of Republicans are not, because he is actually quite liberal. Karl Rove said if his father wasn't a Nazi, he wouldn't have any credibility with conservatives at all.

The liberal groups spent months raising money so they could take down anyone President Bush nominated, ... But they have not been able to touch judge Roberts.

For the last fifty years we've been supporting right-wing governments, and that is a puzzlement to me... I don't understand what there is in the American character... that almost automatically, even when we have a liberal President, we support fascist dictatorships or are tolerant towards them.

Senate Republicans strongly believe that we should have an understanding on when President Bush's circuit court nominees, many of whom have been languishing in this committee for almost a year, will get hearings and be treated fairly,

Historically, there has not been an ideological litmus test for Supreme Court nominees. Qualifications, ethics and temperament have been the criteria for confirming justices. That was certainly the case with Justice Ginsburg. Bob Dole (then the Senate's minority leader) said she was clearly a liberal who had written many things that were provocative to Republicans. But Bill Clinton had won the election, and it was his nomination.

The liberal elites running Hollywood have no intention of ceasing their relentless attack on traditional values. It's almost impossible for parents to block out all of the left-wing messages that Hollywood and its media friends are bombarding our kids with. The solution is for parents to teach their children to laugh at Hollywood and to regard celebrities as silly people.

Katharine DeBrecht

It is my hope and prayer that our statement against the war in Iraq will be heard loud and clear by our fellow United Methodists, President Bush and Vice President Cheney. Conservative and liberal board members worked together to craft a strong statement calling for the troops to come home and for those responsible for leading us into this disastrous war to be held accountable.

The Supreme Court is at the discretion of the president, ... The Senate's role is to make sure the nominees are competent and not to make a decision based on their ideologies.
