This is huge. Go read up: NYT, WaPo, LA Times, Chicago Tribune, BBC News.
Bush already stated he wants to fill the vacancy before the Court goes back in session. We all have to act quickly on this. Time to start emailing and making phone calls. Judge Ed Prado from Texas is one I've been hearing about as a good moderate who was nominated by Republicans and supported by Democrats. We need moderates on the bench, not extremists or activists for either extreme wings of the political spectrum.
My moderate nominee is Ralph Nader...hey I'm serious! He's moderate by the people's standards. I think he has a shot at confirmation.
I tell you Al, anyone Bush nominates won't really represent us. I honestly think the last recent real good Justice to be nominated and confirmed was T Marshall.
