    biased, no.... I'm what you'd call biased

    I think cold heartless witch is a better description of the author-- that article was written by an extreemist and is nothing but a bunch of self serving noise.

    thought provoking , eh ? I guess that would be a matter of opinion.

    Thanks for sharing anyway

    Ann Coulter looks great in a skirt, but she doesn't add much to the substance of political debate. Kind of like Maureen Dowd of NYT, only Ann looks much better.

    Well, she's a little out of step re "the tyranny of the judiciary," considering that 75% of all Federal Judges had been appointed by a Republican President by the time Clinton took office, and it's still well in excess of 60% today! That said, she's right about one thing - Bush can re-pack judiciary and leave it in same position as Reagan and his father did... it's a Golden Opportunity, and one he should be careful to make the most of. This will especially be so should he catch a break and wind up getting three Supreme Court appointments during this term - and considering the health and ages of Rehnquist, Stevens and O'Connor, it's entirely possible such will be the case.

    Ann good looking . I don't get that. She is pretty average at best- imo- and since she is so full hate it shows all over her face. She looks as bitter as she sounds-- like she is smelling vinager all the time or something.

    Somebody needs to give that lady a hug or a care bear or something

    I dunno - it seemed more snarling than analytic.

    This has been my biggest fear for the past 4 years ( especailly since Robertson asked people to pray that certain Supreme Court Judges be "removed") and it will be my biggest fear for the next 4 years.

    I hear ya Farrah- this is something that could have a very longterm effect on this country and our way of life- ofcourse thats why the fundys are foaming at the mouth over the judges seats - they want to control everything everyone -- what better way to exert pressure and control on the population than to be on the supreme court.

    Ann Coultier is fucking ugly. Inside and out. I don't see how anyone could find her atractive. Inside and out.
