100 lying scumbag politicians... who will be no better than the last lying scumbag politicians.

So Reagan will appoint judges posthumously?

He normally can be counted on to follow Scalia, but in this case went his own way :thumbsup

The only part that was really relevant was that he was Republican.

I assumed you were expressing fear about Republican-appointed judges threatening the porn business.??

I wasn't referring to just any republican, I was referring to George W. Bush

Stupid fucking pothead...aren't you Danny boy.

At least two of the ones appointed by Reagan voted contrary to his opinions many times, the same would probably happen with any appointed by Bush.

Reagan often expressed disappointment over the votes of his appointees, so they're not presidential puppets.

I won't argue with that, but my fear is that Bush will go out of his way to find judges that agree with him on certain issues, porn being one of them. It has been said that as many as 3 justices could retire in the next 4 years. He will have an opportunity to change this country drastically, and it won't be the same for years. I don't think he'll miss that opportunity, and I don't want to take that chance.

In reference to:

It's a minor point, since it was a Republican president all the same, but Thomas was actually appointed by George HW Bush (Bush 1), not Reagan.

Your point about Supreme Court justices is well-taken though; they often show more of an independent/objective streak than the pres. who appointed them would like. It's not quite as simple as "appointed by conservative - will vote conservative" or vice versa.

yes that's me, and you're the old drunk with the big mouth and the wet brain.
