Robert Bork is one of the finest jurists in American history. He'd've made a splendid Justice.

Romney is an admitted Progressive Republican....
Does that change your mind?

I doubt it since this is a team sport now. F*ck the people, I just want my team to win.


It is the same team people! One is just offense and the other defense, playing hardball against, WE THE PEOPLE.
Your on the wrong team!

This gives me more respect for Romney. Bork is a judge who actually believes what is written in the Constitution matters.

Given this insight into what kind of judges Romney would pick I might just have to vote for him.

Why? Rev. Wright did not scare them in '08.
