Alas, no such luck on the high court. The Repus have the courage of their convictions. The Dems okayed Rehnquist, Scalia (98-0!) Thomas, etc. Apart from Stevens, appointed by Ford, he most progressive justice on the S,Ct is Souter, appointed by Bush I. Clinton gave us Ginsburg and Breyer, who are not nearly as good from our point of view. Now the lowers courts are another story. There Dem appointments are generally much better. --jks _________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com.
