Hey! You "so-called" conservative Bloggers out there! Do your part to get rid of bad Republicans! Blog for Freedom first!
JOHN PAUL STEVENS – Nominated by President Gerald Ford, in December 1975, President Gerald Ford nominated Stevens to replace the retiring Associate Justice William O. Douglas. He was approved unanimously (99-0) by the Senate.
RUTH BADER GINSBERG - In June 1993, President Bill Clinton nominated Ginsburg to replace retiring Associate Justice Byron White. She was approved by the Senate by a 96-3 margin. The Repubs knew she was essentially a Marxist, but they voted for her anyway!
ANTHONY KENNEDY - When Associate Justice Lewis Powell retired in June 1987, President Ronald Reagan had some difficulty in getting a replacement confirmed by the Senate. First he nominated the conservative Robert Bork, who was rejected (or, as we call it today, "Borked") 42-58 by the newly Democratic Senate. Reagan next nominated Douglas Ginsburg, who was forced to step down after revelations of marijuana use. Reagan's third choice was Kennedy, nominated that November, who was unanimously (97-0) confirmed by the Senate.
DAVID SOUTER - In July 1990, President George Bush nominated Souter to replace the retiring Associate Justice William J. Brennan. Although the press referred to him as a "stealth justice" because of his relative silence on hot-button issues, he breezed through the Senate confirmation process (90-9).
STEPHEN BREYER - In May 1994, President Bill Clinton nominated Breyer to replace the retiring Associate Justice Harry Blackmun. Facing little controversy and broad bipartisan support, he was approved (87-9) by the Senate.
... the historical weakness of Senate Republicans has been a problem for a long time. STOP SUPPORTING LIBERAL REPUBLICANS!
