Update [2005-2-28 11:48:6 by Armando]: The contest continues, as I didn't get to decide on the entries. So another day of entries and maybe Friday a vote on the 13 finalists we pick.
Here they go again:
How Low Will Senate Democrats Go?
Hugh Hewitt directs our attention to this post by Carol Platt Liebau regarding potential Supreme Court nominee Michael Luttig. Judge Luttig's father was murdered, and liberals may be poised to argue that this fact would render him impermissibly biased in death penalty cases (but doesn't he hear such cases now as a U.S. Court of Appeals judge?) Liebau notes that, "under this reasoning, every potential female justice should be asked whether she's ever had an abortion -- because abortion cases would come up before the Court. And minority candidates would have to discuss how/whether they ever felt discriminated against." Indeed, it would be appropriate to investigate whether, or to what extent, minority nominees have benefited [sic] personally from affirmative action.
(Emphasis Mine.)
In an another instance of completely making crap up, Powerline, Time's Blog of the Year, demonstrates yet again that not only are they shameless, they are pretty dull blades as well. Do they think this one can actually fly? As far as I can tell, no Dem VOTER has actually said this, much less a Dem politician.
But Rush will have it tomorrow I am sure. Who wants to bet?
Update [2005-2-24 22:22:16 by Armando]: Here's a contest - kossack with the best "Bush MAY BE POISED TO _____" line will get to write a diary based on that line and I will promote it to the front.
Update [2005-2-24 22:33:54 by Armando]: Multiple entries allowed. As many as you want.
