*President* Bush may not be the best President to come down the pike,
but he is far better than what the Dumbocrats have offered. What next,
Hillary? Many conservative Republicans would beat that ultra-lib
offering.

Wow, was Earl Warren any "good". ; )

Warren took over a court that was deeply divided between those justices who
advocated a more active role for the court and those who supported judicial
restraint. He proved skillful at "massing the court" and securing consensus
as is evidenced by the unanimous decision in the Brown v. Board of Education
case, one of the first cases that he had to deal with as Chief Justice.
The Brown case was the first in a long string of judgments that marked a
more active role for the Supreme Court of the United States in American
life. The Warren Court took on the defense of individual rights as no court
before it. Warren considered this a proper role for the courts; he never saw
the role of the judiciary as passive, or somehow inferior to the other two
branches of government.

Warren's opinion in Brown has been criticized for its lack of constitutional
analysis. In Brown the key finding does not appeal to precedent or to the
history of the Fourteenth Amendment. Rather there is an emphasis on common
sense, justice, and fairness that can be seen in Warren's reliance on social
science and psychological research. Warren was not antigovernment, but he
believed that the Constitution prohibited the government from acting
unfairly against the individual. In taking this position, he carved out a
powerful position for the Court as a protector of civil rights and civil
liberties.

Wasn't Earl Warren a governor or something?

At least he'd been in public service and run a state.

Harriett's best qualification is her status as a born-again Christian.

Wink, wink.

Yes. California.

Typical liberal - thinking that one politician "runs a state".

What an idiotic statement, by you. When you're at the head of any
organization, you're known as the one "running things," whether that's a
pop stand or a country.

An ultra-high colonic might be good for you, perhaps it'll help unblock
your synapses or at least clear the **** that's currently impacting your
brain.

Gotta love people who want to discriminate against non-judges, yet think
that two fudgepackers can be "married".

Gotta love people who put words in other people's mouths.

Discriminate against non-judges???

You mean like Republicans discriminating against "activist" judges, even
thought those judges are Republicans or appointed by Republicans?

You ought to loosen the blinder harness a bit, your brain is clearly
getting squeezed like lemon.

California - 1943 to 1953. The interesting thing about Earl Warren was
that he was an unabashed liberal Republican (long before it became
fashionable with Edmond Burke or Lincoln Chafee, et. al.,), but it would
appear that Eisenhower either wasn't aware of his liberalism or didn't
care.

I'm not sure. Eisenhower has been quoted as saying about the Warren
appointment, "was the biggest damned fool mistake I've ever made in my
life."
