I think Mr Schweatty just lost my Obama vote in the General Election.

That was so stupid I think it gave me cancer.

WTF, really?

Spanky_McFarksalot: That was so stupid I think it gave me cancer.

Yup. I can feel my DNA f*cking up right now in sheer disbelief that someone could type that tripe, much less actually entertain it as a realistic option.

We should just stone him to death and go to his home and stone his wife and children. We should kill his family.

Hillary would make a good SCOTUS judge.

Dancin_In_Anson: We should just stone him to death and go to his home and stone his wife and children. We should kill his family.

I've heard his ex is a pain in the ass and his daughter is a rude, thoughtless little pig. So no big loss I say.

/Hate is politics
//Love his work

didnt get past the first paragraph. in my social circles, we all have the same opinion: we are not opposed to a female president. it would be cool, and new. we just dont want THAT woman as president.

its simple. women are fine, but the current woman running isnt.

/its not sexist. its FARK

Dinki: Hillary would make a good SCOTUS judge.

How do you figure? Her old boss said that she should have been disbarred for her actions during the Watergate hearing.

Dinki: Hillary would make a good SCOTUS judge.

With absolutely no experience on the bench and not having practiced law in almost two decades, I'd say probably not.

I've said the same thing. Thing is, I was cruelly joking. Now this



is SCOTUSable

Wasn't she also disbarred in Arkansas? I imagine that little tidbit would be almost as much a barrier to winning Senate approval of your nomination as that whole "being Hillary Clinton" thing would be.

Didn't he make this whole big production concerning if Bush was still President after the '04 election?

Bill surrendered his law license after a federal judge found he willfully gave false testimony under oath, and the Supreme Court disbarred him from practice before that court. Hillary has never been disbarred, but I do not know if her license is still in good standing, either.

Feh. Hillary could appoint BILL.

NeverDrunk23: Didn't he make this whole big production concerning if Bush was still President after the '04 election?

Something about leaving the country for good.

Baldwin. Well, just another 'actor' that thinks we'd all be served by his farking opinion. Maybe him and Shawn-of-the-dead Penn can both run for Supreme Court too. Didn't they play attorneys on film?

/Schmos, not Joes

Alec speaks out of his ass too much but lets face it, the guy was right about W before anyone else was. Although he never lived up to his promise of leaving the country once W was elected back in 2000, its erie how accurate he was about how awful Bush would be as POTUS. I'm with Alec on this one, though his final sentence in the article leaves me wondering if he should start employing a better editor.

If you're basing your faith in Alec Baldwin on one pessimistic statement that was echoed by thousands then you're probably retarded. It's really too bad that I'm pretty damn sure you are serious. You should take a course on logic or just try to be more rational in general.

A) There are no open spots.
B) Hillary is not a judge.
C) Despite that, she'll would be better than the a-holes Bush appointed to put there.

What a grade-A moron. He can eat my poo.

I knew it was one of them. Still, Hillary on the SCOTUS is about as likely as the Tigers winning the Series this year - still theoretically possible, but not bloody likely at this juncture.

Please stop helping the neo-conservatives, Hollywood.

I thought he moved out of the country a decade ago?

Guess you can't believe anything that liar says.

Remove all Republicans: jake3988: A) There are no open spots.

That's only because people like having nine. There is no set limitation in the Constitution. Why doesn't Obama appoint both Bill and Hillary? That's keep an odd number and will ensure a progressive majority for quite a while.

The number of justices is set by law at nine. To prevent the president from doing just that. If Obama was able, and stupid enough to appoint Bill and Hillary to the Supreme Court, he would not get re-elected and the next Republican administration would add more than enough conservative justices to tilt the court back to the right, and so on, and so on...

Alec, let me give you some advice...

SHUT YOUR FAT MOUTH


Technically, I should like it when liberal celebrities say stupid things, but his dumbdom hurts my brainthing.

Third prize is you're fired.

For some reason, I picture Alec and David Hasslehoff together eating a burger on the floor.. Half-neked.

Then I realize I shouldn't think such things.

Remove all Republicans: No, it's not. FDR tried it once but Justice Roberts finally saw the light. Get a Democrat in the White House, with a Democratic Senate and I'd like to see 20 if not 50 progressive Justices put in place. That will keep the Republicans at bay for a long time.

Lol, yeah go ahead and try to pack the court and see what happens. If a giant like FDR couldn't pull that off I sincerely doubt that the used car salesmen running the Democratic Party now could pull it off. Try it and see how many decades it takes to have another Democratic President or Congress.

I'm not a Ron Paultard, but I think he would be GREAT on the supreme court....

/Flame On

You know...I read an account from the Union governor of New Orleans during the Civil War about how slaves would fight over whose master was the better...he was quite vexed by it. Now when I see Remove all Republicans post and I can understand the vexation.

Remove all Republicans: JQPublic: The number of justices is set by law at nine. To prevent the president from doing just that.

Yes it is. The Judiciary Act of 1869 (new window) set the Supreme Court at one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices.

Perhaps you should contact the campaigns of Obama or Hillary and suggest that they run on a platform of adding 20 to 50 leftwing Supreme Court Justices...what?...no?...stupid idea? Recipe for fail?

Remove all Republicans: Besides people are much more informed this time and will see through the Republican smokescreen.

"See through" opposition to packing the Supreme Court? Lol. Like I said...try it.

but Hillary has shown that the base of the Democratic party will support her, and she'll respond to the criticisms of the Republicans quite well

The butt-spanking she (and her party) got over the health-care debacle would prove to be a tiny rumble compared to the earthquake if she were to try to pack the Supreme Court.


You ARE going for parody aren't you? I am assuming you are.

Remove all Republicans: but Hillary...

Also...what makes you think Hillary would suddenly push for liberal justices? If she makes it then she will be running for re-election from minute one. And that means she will be triangulating....and triangulating means playing you off against others...not doing what you want.

ricky81682:
I just wanted to come in and congratulate you on your levels of crazy. I mean I've seen crazy before but this is quite impressive. Thought-out, long-winded, long-term psychosis like this is pretty unique to see up close and personal.

It's hard to tell parody from reality these days. This one almost has to be parody though.

Remove all Republicans: JQPublic: Yes it is. The Judiciary Act of 1869 (new window) set the Supreme Court at one Chief Justice and eight Associate Justices.

Congress can easily pass a new law changing that.

easily? O RLY?

Maybe you should telephone Congress with your "easily passed" plan to pack the Supreme Court with leftwing judges. Tell them you said it was easy...

Bewaaaaaaaare! Bewaaaaaaaare! It's the Coming of the Anti-Clarence Thomas!

You are worfress Arec Barrwin.

Crude: Alec, let me give you some advice...

SHUT YOUR FAT MOUTH unless it's fellating the neoconservative movement


FTFY. 'Cuz that is what you meant, right? I mean, I don't see you getting on Ted Nugent's case, or Ben Stein's...

Remove all Republicans: See her act in NH, she knows how to counter an attack.

Then how come Obama is kicking her ass in every farking way while hardly lifting a finger?

I dont know where this "Hillary is such a good political fighter" meme came from but it is dead wrong. She was a good Shill for Bill a decade ago but as a candidate herself she hasnt done a single thing right.

Remove all Republicans: Digitalstrange: Then how come Obama is kicking her ass in every farking way while hardly lifting a finger?

Wait, the same people complaining about all the money that Hillary is forcing Obama to spend are now claiming that he is "hardly lifting a finger"? Dude, Obama's pouring money out during this campaign. Hillary's problem is that a lot of her donations got tied up in her general election run, because she didn't plan on this thing dragging out so long.

Digitalstrange: I dont know where this "Hillary is such a good political fighter" meme came from but it is dead wrong. She was a good Shill for Bill a decade ago but as a candidate herself she hasnt done a single thing right.

She has managed to be almost equal to the first serious African-American presidential candidate anywhere, and has managed to come back from that Iowa loss to having a pretty good chance of having the superdelegates hand her the nomination at the convention.

Besides the fact that the Republicans so boil in hatred of her tells me that she must be right and there are scared of seeing the first woman president.

And Independant's hate of her means she won't be elected, and Democrats hate of her means there's more to not liking her than just "not wanting a woman president."

Perhaps I should enlighten you on our reality, since you live in your own reality. Hillary was anointed the inevitable candidate right up until Iowa. She had more money, a stronger organization, and name recognition, and she's done nothing but erode that ever since. She campaigned heavily in Iowa. She lost Iowa. Then she called it a fluke. She won New Hampshire shortly thereafter but lost South Carolina in an upset. Since then she's made "must win" states where her campaign would supposedly turn around and defeat Obama. I remember because one of them was Virginia, where Bill spoke at my school. She lost handedly. After that she focused all of her attention on Ohio and Texas. Her campaign made a big deal out of these states, seeing as how her popularity was dropping. Her campaign didn't just want Texas, it NEEDED Texas, and it said so. This wasn't supposed to be a problem, as all of the polls showed early on that she had a high lead in Texas. Well you know what?

Delegate wise, she lost Texas. And now we're hearing the same things from the Clinton campaign about Pennsylvania. She had a 20 point lead in PA just a few weeks ago, and now it's shrunk to 6.

I've actually noticed an interesting trend: the more time Clinton spends in a place, the more likely Obama seems to do well there. She lost Iowa, where she campaigned for a long, long time, but won New Hampshire less than a week later. When given weeks to campaign in South Carolina, she loses. When spending all of her resources in Texas, she loses.

It seems the more people get to know about Hillary, the more they can't bring themselves to vote for her.

Clinton on the supreme court... that's pretty much the scariest farking think I've read in my entire life
