The Political Environment: Butler Sacrificed

Monday, December 20, 2010

Disgusting.

And I'm telling you right now: comments will be carefully moderated.

Publius said...: Carefully moderate this:

Butler was twice rejected by the voters of Wisconsin.

Obama, ostensibly not caring what the voters of Wisconsin wanted, nominated Butler to stand in judgment of the same voters that didn't find him qualified to stand in judgment of them.; December 20, 2010 at 7:59 PM
Zach W. said...: Publius, check the records....while Butler was "rejected" by voters throughout the state, he actually won a majority of the vote in the areas of Wisconsin he'd serve as a member of the federal judiciary. Clearly those folks didn't have a problem with Butler, so if we want to respect the will of the voters Butler would be serving, we'd confirm Butler to the judiciary.; December 20, 2010 at 8:09 PM
James Rowen said...: Good point, Zach. This all has nothing to do with facts.; December 20, 2010 at 8:45 PM
Anonymous said...: Yeah, we need another bad liberal judge on the bench. This is just so tragic.; December 20, 2010 at 9:35 PM
