1. Depends on which woman it is.

[etherealtruth]

4. As much as I'd like to see a woman nominated ...

I would much prefer a "decent" guy rather than a rw'ing nut

[Fovea]

2. that depends

Are you classifying Ann Coulter as a woman?

[etherealtruth]

5. NO ...

... he is a deranged man.

[Somawas]

15. Difficult Question-maybe (Tr)Ann could become the first

transgenered justice?

[tompayne1]

3. if he does

she will be a whackjob.

[Norquist Nemesis]

11. Yes! They're already pushing for a "Conservative Woman to

balance the court" saying there's already a liberal justice (Ginsberg). However, as much as they demonize her for being the most liberal ACLU bitch, they're going to use her as the standard for putting what they perceive as the proportionate opposite to 'balance'.

6. Depends on the woman...

...Owens and Rogers should most definately be opposed (but likely won't, because the GOP will whine and claim the Dems are being anti-woman or racist)...

7. I heard on AAR

this morning during wayne's news bit that it was going to be Gonzales.

[Silverhair]

8. I don't care. Just someone qualified.

Of course we are likely to get Janice Rogers Brown.

[Double T]

9. Woman-YES!!! Neocon-NO!!!!!!!!!

IT IS NOW TIME TO FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT (and I don't mean 'wing')!!!!!!

[napi21]

10. That's a difficult question to answer. What if it's one of the two

nut cases he just pushed through to sit on the Fed courts? Janice Rogers Brown or Priscilla Owen.

I don't think it matters wether he names a woman, a minority, or a monkey, any of them could be a disaster for America.

[AllyCat]

12. Cannot answer

I want someone qualified. Female, black, white, purple, whatever. I'd like there to be another woman, but I also know WHICH women he would nominate.

[Chemical Bill]

13. How come "Bush should resign" isn't a choice? n/t

[bunny planet]

14. At least MSNBC has a response portion where you can respond to the

question. I recommended a woman be chosen but outlined more specifically that a woman who is radically reactionary in reference to woman's reproductive rights and freedoms, and the civil rights of all Americans would be a poor choice regardless of gender.

16. dumb poll

I know, it is important to have women represented as O'Connor lent a new understanding to women's rights.....

I would have liked to see should Bush nominate a moderate....
cause thats the real role O'Connor had on the court.

[Benhurst]

18. Yeah, she was somewhat of a moderate, at least by BushAmerican

standards; but she bared her fangs when she cast her treasonous vote giving Bush the 2000 election and paving the way for the takeover of the Supreme Court.

I assume her "Chief" is saving a spot for her in Hell.

[melissinha]

20. very true

yes when I wrote that, I held back the "she may be moderate, but her allegiance is still to the GOP" rage..... Wasn't seh a tad bit worried when it appeared as if Gore was going to win on election night? I can't forgive her for that.....

[titoresque]

17. Yeah this is a tough one

Do I think a woman should be chosen...yes. Do I think the Bush Crime family will choose anyone whom we can trust....NO!
