She seems okay, aside from the fact that she is another crony.

Also, she contributed to Al Gore's Presidential campaign in 1988 and gave money to the DNC. What's not to like? :)

I guess you missed the part back in '94 I believe. She was the president of the Texas Bar Assc. and tried to get the National bar Assc. to revisit the abortion issue. I'm pretty sure the confirmation panel won't overlook that bit of history.

I got a traffic ticket once many years ago, and appealed it. The judge in that case took all of 30 seconds to totally ignore my point and render me guilty.

She was on the short list of candidates to be nominated. I'm kind of sad she wasn't, I figured i could always bring that up in the event i'm arguing a case at the supreme court.

She is from Dallas, Texas. I am from Dallas, Texas. Take that for what it is worth. :)

I am noticing a disturbing lack of plow experience among nominees.

Aside from the fact that she's a major bigwig at EXODUS Ministries, of course.

She's too close to Dubya. Stinks of cronyism. Stay tuned. There is a "gotcha" coming.

Different Exodus ministries. Her Exodus is "a non-denominational Christian organization established to assist ex-offenders and their families become productive members of society by meeting both their spiritual and physical needs."

http://www.exodusministriesinc.com

She seems to look favorably on gay rights and gay marriage.

She also seems to be strongly anti-abortion. That could be a problem.

Other than that she is Kiamat's worst nightmare. Silly social conservatives. You really thought Bush would folow through for you. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! Suckers!

The best part about her nomination is the conservatives who are losing their mind.

Some conservatives have even begun uttering the "F" word. Yes, filibuster.

I'd just like to utter from the red corner WTF. And I've been saying that since Jan 20th. :(
