The Human Toll
Today, People For the American Way Foundation* put out a report titled The Human Toll: How Individual Americans Have Fared at the Hands of Bush Judges. It’s essentially a review of the stories of individual Americans who have found themselves in front of judges put on the bench by George W. Bush. In many cases, the result isn’t pretty.
With that in mind, let me point out an important fact: John McCain has supported every single one of George Bush’s judicial nominees.
So, for that matter, have most of the incumbent GOP Senators up for reelection this year. John Sununu (NH), Elizabeth Dole (NC), Ted Stevens (AK), Gordon Smith (OR), Norm Coleman (MN), James Inhofe (OK), and John Cornyn (TX) are probably the ones in the closest races.
You might want to keep that in mind while you read the report. It’s a pretty interesting read, if I do say so myself.
