3. I didn't read the link
Because it may have mentioned the next Judicial Con-borg down the pipe... it didn't need to know that. There is no rest until we wrest control from the Rebublicans.

5. This makes my day!
This was a small but important battle for the Democrats and they won it!

Keep it up Dems! Now is not the time to stop.

If W is elected in 2004, he will bring the buzzard Estrada back. One more reason to see that Bush is 86'ed in 2004.

Chessy

9. A Big Wooo-Hooo! from the Locked Thread
The Faux dude ASNER couldn't put "Hispanic" ENOUGH times in this stumbler of a sentence:

"ESTRADA is the Harvard educated Hispanic, Honduran, from Honduras, Hispanic."-----------swear to Zeus!

Anyway, all hail, SCHUMER, LEAHY, the Hispanic Caucus, the Professor, Mary Ann, and the rest!

As for the LIMBOsevic/Orrin-HATCH spin about Dems blocking a Hispanic: Voting Hispanics ain't that dumb, know SELL-OUTS when they see'em.

But the wingnuts are tied up in knots: They picked somebody based on RACE, then accuse the opposition of being racist for rejecting him on IDEOLOGICAL grounds. Hahaha. They are fools to stand in front of Hispanics and do the Orrin HATCH-righteous thing when HISPANICS were against the dude. Hahahahaha.

11. Estrada can actually thank Ted Olson
for this. When you work to overthrow the elected president, this might happen. Just too bad they approved Olson. Couldn't believe they did.
