In Obama Nominee Sotomayor, a Supreme Opportunity for Republicans
If Republicans are smart, they'll leverage the nomination hearings into a necessary national discussion about principles and values. It doesn't need to be divisive or ugly. And if they do it right, it might unify the party.
Savvy Republicans will realize this is not about the Sonia Sotomayor nomination at all. It's about the future of the Republican Party—and whether there still is one.

Pro-life does not equal Pro-vengeance
I do believe that a person can support the death penalty and be pro-life. The death penalty is for people that have caused heinous crimes. Abortion kills innocent babies. I am so tired of people saying that if a person is pro-life they can't get behind capital punishment.

Why not come right out and tell us that you are a Republican from the far right, the Rush kind. You stink.
MY ADVICE TO REPUBLICANS....
Shut up, swallow hard, and except Sotomayor. Yea, she's a progressive, green-socialist, judicial activist - I know it's hard to believe, but Obama could have found an even less honorable and moral judge - Which he will do next time if you scream and kick too much!
My second piece of advise is to return the party to honest, traditional, conservatism - not a redo of "Bushdumb". I think Bush had good intentions - but you know where they say that road leads (and it did). So, when the green-socialist Obamatrons finally muck the country up totally, and the pendulum swings back - be ready to offer a real alternative to "left-green wackodom" - not just "wacko lite".
