So, why are the senators dicking around with this guy? The question I want answered is “Does he have any ethics?” “And does he think a supreme court justice should have ethics.” Or is that unimportant, too?

Back while he was being interviewed for appointment to the supreme court, he was also hearing, and ruling on ‘Rumsfeld vs. Hamdan’. Now, as I understand it, judicial ethics do not allow a judge to hear a case where he is trying to get a job with one of the parties.

So, you figure they’re going to ask that question? The man’s a sleaze. A construct. He’s been groomed by the right-wing for this job. and the media’s going along. You figure the news media will ask? Toss him back, and tell bush to send ‘em another.
