Reader comment on: Clinton and Obama Raiding Donors Who Backed Bush

Submitted by Michael, May 1, 2007 07:12

In 2000, I actually didn't think Bush was that bad, (though I voted for Gore)...By 2004, I could not see how ANYONE could vote for Bush....Now, he's been able to appoint 2 far-right judges to the Supreme Court, & as can be evidenced by the recent abortion ruling, this court is one far right justice (btw, let's stop w/that strict contructionist nonsense, we all know the code for that means far-right judges) away from overturning Roe vs. Wade....But more than that, a far-right court would trample all over First Amendment rights; ie: censorship issues, etc...

There are a million reasons to support whomever the Democratic nominee ends up being, but the main reason for me is I can't stomach the thought of another conservative nominee to the high court...
