Comments on: The Synod Has Spoken https://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/19/the-synod-has-spoken/ On-line Opinion Magazine...OK, it's a blog Fri, 20 Apr 2007 20:16:27 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.4.3 By: Bryan https://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/19/the-synod-has-spoken/comment-page-1/#comment-25644 Fri, 20 Apr 2007 20:16:27 +0000 http://whynow.dumka.us/2007/04/19/the-synod-has-spoken/#comment-25644 It’s hard to believe she didn’t know what the Shrubbery would fill her post with. Harriet Meirs should have been a hint has to what the White House thought of the Supreme Court.

Details not at 11, or any other time on the mainstream media; they don’t dare talk about it.

While many of us were focused on radical fundamentalist evangelicals as threats to our religious pluralism as a society, we seem to have forgotten that Catholics have their own radicals in their midst who are not any more trustworthy than the fundies when it comes to serving on our highest Court. Religious radicals of all flavors seem incapable of putting aside their own faith-based agendas in favor of the requirements of the Constitution. No one who is unable to do that, and especially no one who cannot make the distinction, should ever serve on the Supreme Court; now it seems we have five such people.

I wonder how Sandra Day O’Connor feels now about her decision to delay retirement until there was a Republican president to appoint her replacement. Do you think she’s happy now?

That’s about it, as far as I can tell.
