It'll be Ted Olson -- and the presstitutes will call him "moderate"

[Armstead]

That's my bet in the Meiers' Replacement Pool.

Care to place yours?

1. I think that's as good a guess as any. n/t

[AntiCoup2K4]

2. Good.. bring it on. And let the press dig into every inch of his life.

Eventually they'll find Babs and it will make Fitzmas look like Secretaries Day.

[FSogol]

3. It'll be Robert Bork. They'll wheel him out onto the Senate floor like

Hannibal Lecther from "The Silence of the Lambs".

[The Backlash Cometh]

4. I think Ted Olson has too many skeletons in the closet.

[Armstead]

7. They tend to ignoire skeltons that matter

It's only unpaid traffic tickets that seem to matter. Corporate and poliitical corruption is considered distinguished.

Tweety, for example, is now touting Olson as an exemplary candidate.

[The Backlash Cometh]

12. Oh, I don't know. Tweety has been wrong before. tee-hee.

[Liberal Dose]

8. Yeah, like the improbable 9/11 phone call from Barbara n/t

[Deep13]

5. presstitutes?

:spray:

[Armstead]

10. It's more genteel than "whore"

....same job though. :)

[splat]

6. won't be a white male n/t

[DanCa]

9. I need to see the list.

[Gman]

11. Olsen should be in prison for lying to congress during his confirmation

hearings about his role in the Arkansas Project.

[kentuck]

13. Hillary loves him...

Not ! She remembers him as holding hands with the likes of Lucianne Goldberg, Linda Tripp, and others as he went after her and Bill. Of course, he was the person that presented Bush and Baker's case before the Supreme Court in the election of 2000.

14. Olson's Personal Life...And He's Not "Dobson" Certified

The fun here is to listen to how a Repugnican attempts to define a "strict constructionist". There are the Borks and Social Conservatives vs. the far right fundies like Dobson and Coburn and the bible thumpers. The damage of Miers is these folks found out how little they really have in common (other than being chained to the booosh regime) and how they really don't like each other.

Olson's a "Social Conservative"...a beltway type...an elite. Remember, there was the warfare over the deal that Miers came from SMU and how she didn't have the "pedigree". Olson does...that won't go well with the thumpers who will wants someone from Liberty or Bob Jones University.

Plus, be assured Olson's personal life of being one of the biggest partiers inside the beltway will come to light. Especially if the fundies want to find something to "bork" him like they feel their pick, Miers, was just "borked".

Kharma's a bitch...

:rofl:

15. I hope it's not him or Janice Rogers Brown.
