Fuck Bush
One way to do it: Don't confirm Roberts for Supreme Court. Don't do it. Everyone thinks he is a shoo-in. Everyone talks as though it's already in the bag. Bush is predictably demanding that Roberts be confirmed by the next session of the Court. Don't let him have it.
I don't even care if there is no good reason on Roberts' part although there is plenty of that.
Bush has let this country down again and again. Time after time he and his stooges have dragged us into untenable circumstances and when the shit hits the fan he stands there with his stupid, clueless grin and pretends everything is just great.
When Bill Clinton chose his own head of FEMA he picked a guy with 20 years experience in emergency management. He didn't politicize the post or use it to pay back political favors. Bush did just that, the way he and his pet Rove politicize everything. The top positions of FEMA under Bush were given to men with NO experience in emergency management at all. They are people who helped out on Bush's campaign. This is the contempt the President has for the American people and it's time we returned the sentiment by writing to our senators and insisting they deny Roberts and maybe even the next several nominees a place on the bench.
Life will go on. The Republic will not fall because of an understaffed Court. It will be a small step toward ensuring Bush has severely limited avenues to impact the nation when his term is mercifully over.
