Roberts Nomination Sent to Full Senate

BREITBART.COM - Just The News: "WASHINGTON The Senate Judiciary Committee on Thursday approved John Roberts' nomination as the next Supreme Court chief justice, virtually assuring the conservative judge confirmation by the Senate next week. Three Democrats joined the committee's 10 majority Republicans in a 13-5 vote to advance the nomination to the full Senate. Five Democrats _ Sens. Dianne Feinstein of California, Joseph Biden of Delaware, Edward Kennedy of Massachusetts, Charles Schumer of New York and Dick Durbin of Illinois _ opposed Roberts."

Specter Urges Delay in Replacement of O'Connor at Supreme Court

Bloomberg.com: U.S.: "Sept. 21 (Bloomberg) -- The chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee said he urged President George W. Bush today to delay nominating a replacement for retiring Justice Sandra Day O'Connor. Senator Arlen Specter, Republican of Pennsylvania, said he talked to Justice O'Connor about staying on the high court. ``She's prepared to do that'' through the court's term ending in June, Specter said. The president ``was noncommittal,'' Specter said. ``The body language was not very positive,'' Specter said." This is why I opposed Specter becoming chairman of the judiciary committee. He is attempting to usurp the President Bush's constitution obligation. But, hey, why not. Michael Jordan reneged on his retirement. That was the NBA. We're only talking about the Third Branch of government here.

Red Disney

This is funny. I've been recommending (tongue in cheek) that we should create Red Zones here in America. These would be areas for Chinese to work here in the US to make their ultra cheap products for us. These areas would, of course, have to be completely enclosed in electric fencing and razor sharp wire, so the communists couldn't have access to our free world. Think how much would be saved in transportation and distribution costs if this was done! No more having to ship tons and tons and tons of product from literally half way around the world. Now it seems that companies, that wouldn't have ever existed if not for a free country, are all too happy to provide their comforts to people who have no chance to experience real freedom. But only under the tightest government restrictions. Disney being the latest, but many others have proceeded them, like Yahoo. I think it's a dirty shame.

Picketers for Hire

Las Vegas Weekly: "The shade from the Wal-Mart Neighborhood Market sign is minimal around noon; still, six picketers squeeze their thermoses and Dasani bottles onto the dirt below, trying to keep their water cool. They're walking five-hour shifts on this corner at Stephanie Street and American Pacific Drive in Henderson—anti-Wal-Mart signs propped lazily on their shoulders, deep suntans on their faces and arms—with two 15-minute breaks to run across the street and use the washroom at a gas station."

Not much traction with the abuse

Not much traction with the abuse�-�Nation/Politics�-�The Washington Times, America's Newspaper: "The first polls, no surprise, show the libels are not working. A Washington Post-ABC survey found that the president is not seen as the villain the nutcake left is trying to make him out to be. Americans, skeptical as ever, are believing their own eyes." This guy is spot on.

Hurricane fallout hurts Bush, could hurt Republicans

Hurricane fallout hurts Bush, could hurt Republicans - Yahoo! News: "Democrats so far have been slow to criticize, but that is sure to change. Setting the tone, House of Representatives Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi said Friday that Bush displayed a 'failure of leadership,' as the crisis unfolded." This story is completely backwards. I quoted this from it to show how stupid it is. The democrats were the first to criticize and very quick to do so. This is very well documented, btw. Check the Huffinton Post at what RFK Junior had to say. Also, don't forget screaming Dean. Reuters and Alan Elsner are idiots at analyzing.

Bush, Congress to Investigate Response

BREITBART.COM - Just The News: "President Bush and Congress pledged separate investigations into the widely panned federal response to Hurricane Katrina on Tuesday as Senate Democrats said the government's share of relief and recovery may top $150 billion." After fouling on the War in Iraq. After swinging very strong on immigration and missing by a mile. Bush may have very well hit one out of the park with Hurricane Katrina. It looked like a late swing and everyone was guessing he had no chance at connecting but it is turning out to be a solid and perfectly timed hit. It's a horrible trajedy that's happened, but Bush will look very good in the end and the local and state governments (along with beauracrats in general) are going to look very bad. Bush is a great leader. He has to have powerful things happen for the world to see that.
