And two more Conservative SC Justices would be a bloody picnic?
If you were to put up there two idiots like Romney likely would, in four years they'll be outlawing the teaching of evolution, making homosexuality illegal, and forcing the telecom industry to put mandatory surveillance equipment on every phone they sell.
The fiscal wing of your party is dead.
The only things you have left (right) are the Boogeyman of Islamic Terrorism and your Jesus-Freak buffoonery.
I will be thrilled to keep the idiots out of the SC who would legitimize either one of these issues.

Right on. The Republican party and their likely SC nominees would continue to erode civil liberties and church-state boundaries in the name of national security and family values and that's the last thing this country needs. Ignorance and stupidity have held office for 8 years, it's enough already. Thanks but I'll take my chances with the pinko liberals.

No more reproductive freedom No freedom for gay marriage or civil union No stem cell research
I have no idea what type of Justices McCain is considering, but if they are anything of the ilk of Bush's choices, the country would be in a lot more serious trouble than with a couple of liberal judges.

Massive increase in taxes to pay off war debt along with all the socialist spending that will occur. Where the energy companies are profiting now, the pharmaceutical and medical companies will take their place. The war will continue, as that is the globalist agenda, regardless of political affiliation. Illegal aliens will be welcome with open arms to take jobs from poor Americans. And if Billary wins, we can expect tears to flow any time she doesn't get her way. Oh wait, that was a charade... I don't think the witch has real tears.

Today he said he would appoint judges like Alito and Roberts. I believe him on that. And applaud him. Now, why don't you point out to us just what opinions of those two justices you think are eeeeevil. One or two will do.

And now one of the World's Top Scientists to pushing to Jail Politicians that refuse to believe in Global Warming.

Correction: He won the Republican primary. The Northeast Republican's a relic. I'd say with pretty reasonable certainty that the majority of the state hates him.

So paying off debt is irresponsible policy? And what socialist spending exactly are we talking about? Schools? Healthcare? Also, the Clintons were much more fiscally restrained than the Bush presidencies, so it seems you're talking out your ass.

Oh right, forgot about that. Can't let those brown people ruin our economy and take our jobs while living a life of luxury off their ill-gotten gains, can we?

So you approve of unconstitutional laws if the majority supports them?

Gonzalez v. Oregon, Gonzalez v. Carhart, and Morse v. Frederick. And that's just from 3 minutes of searching. Keep in mind this is also the court that commited the 2000 coup, and which hasn't ruled against blatant violations of habeas corpus, the most fundamental right in Western law.

Regardless of gender, Hillary is a Bitch. Just like her Husband is a lecher. And last time I checked, opposing a specific religeon is not racist. Not to mention, we're slaughtering people on a daily basis that are driven by Islamic ideas, why would you want to put someone with a Muslim upbringing at the helm of a nation that is primarily Christian?

Does having a Muslim parent = a Muslim upbringing?
And that somehow bars him from office?
Get the fuck out of town.

It does not, nor is there a law that prevents the spouse or immediate relative of a former President from running for office. But it appears we need new laws to address these issues. Now the precendent has been set for Jenna Bush to run for presidencey when she is old enough.

Yep, Obama isn't a Muslim.
Are you one of those people who believes everything they read in e-mail forwards?

Fraggin... I saw the e-mail where that blatant propaganda comes from. If you're going to be intolerant at least try to be informed. You'd benefit from a little scepticism and a touch of researching your claims. Hope this clears things up for you.

Nah. It was something I heard on NPR. I really wouldn't even have an issue with Obama if he was Muslim in the past, at least he would be knowledgeable on the issues we face in the middle east.. My only beef is that I don't think it's fair to have a family dynasty in democratic government. Especially in the white house.

Ya, It gives me pause about the family dynasty too, but you speak of it like there is no precedence. The Adams, the Harrisons, the Roosevelts, the Bushes, and those are the ones who are directly related.
If you ask me the more concentrated the wealth becomes in our country the more likely we will have family dynasties.

Actually, one says you, and the other says I. Not to mention, I'm a paradoxical being, so I'm quite contradicting internally and very wishy washy.
I actually wanted to See Romney in close runnings though I don't necessarily agree with Morman doctrine, or any religeon based on noncanonical doctrines. But he seemed like a good enough guy. Having said that, and being paradoxical, I enjoy reading lots of Gospels and Documents that were not chosen to be in the Good Book.
