Eyes against surprise, that way. Given the Reagan/Bush record, letting another Bush have the appointment power would suggest great cause to worry about more of the same. Especially more of the same from one opposing choice, and having the Schiavo history.
That possibility is downright scary, never mind terrible neocon warmongering without paying for it and instead going into debt to the Chinese. Doing that to your children and their children, in oil war fiascos that Obama had to mop up and end. We do not need more of the same regarding Iran's oil, or over Syria, where regional (Saudi) responsibility exists and it is their neighborhood instability, not ours.
But back to the prime focus: The dregs of bad Supreme Court appointments by Republicans are apparent. Again for emphasis, each of the dreadful appointees; REPUBLICAN.
Readers each must answer in his/her heart and mind:
Do YOU want more of the same?
____________UPDATE___________
If there is doubt why I dispise John Roberts, it is summed up in two words, independent of the two Hobby Lobby words done on Roberts' shift, the two words are Citizens United. Good for the nation, election/campaign spending reform, disastrous for the nation, Citizens United. Some dislike the Roberts decision on individual mandate equals a tax bunk, making the individual mandate just fine with Roberts, but that was only icing on the Citizens United cake.
It was the eldest of the several Bush brothers who put that monster not merely onto the Court, but in the Chief Justice's seat. It was an insult to the nation and the world for the one Bush son to have done that to us. Jeb and W - neither of those apples fell at all far from the tree, given the character of the Reagan/G.H.W. Bush Court appointments. Screwing us all that way for decades, running well beyond their terms of office in the White House.
