News hacks are getting noticeably antsy that Dubya might appoint conservative judges. Well what do these idiots expect? We have a Republican president and a Republican Senate. Do they really foresee the second coming of Earl Warren? I don't know how many times Linda Greenhouse has admonished us that the Supremes are a "political body." They can make bad law both ways: take Dred Scott, or Roe v. Wade. And it wasn't Calvin Coolidge who tried packing the court with cronies. The Supremes are the finger in the wind, in legalese. Why shouldn't a president, er, point the finger?
