Utah Sen. Orrin Hatch, one of the top Republicans on the Senate Judiciary Committee, said Monday morning that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been mentioned as a possible nominee to the Supreme Court. "I even heard the name Hillary Clinton today, and that would be an interesting person in the mix," Hatch said on NBC's "Today Show." The senator said he would not pre-judge whether any potential nominee would be an appropriate candidate to replace retiring Justice John Paul Stevens, but he had general praise for the secretary of state. "I happen to like Hillary Clinton, I think she's done agood job for the Democrats -- Secretary of State's position," Hatch said, "and I have high respect for her, and think a great deal of her." Hatch said the confirmation process for President Obama's nominee could go smoothly. "If the president picks somebody who is clearly qualified, there is no question we can get that person through in a relatively short period of time," he said. "On the other hand, if he picks an activist judge... we ought to do everything in our power to defeat that person." The short list of potential nominees is said to include Federal Appellate Judge Diane Wood, Solicitor General Elena Kagan and Federal Judge Merrick Garland.

He's not saying that she would be his choice.
Bullcrap. He is putting her name out there without actually saying she is his choice. Passive aggressiveness for sure. He probably made up the statement that he heard her being mentioned.
David Tatel... He is a DCCA justice who has an amazing record with his decisions...

Unlike you, I use the actual titles of the articles I post.

All he is doing is saying he has heard her name mentioned as a possible nominee.

So? What else would you expect? You think because he doesn't say she's a dirty cunt that that means he wants her to be a Supreme Court Justice?
No, he leaves that to people like you.

The irony in Skippies quoted comment is Hillary Clinton's stint as Secretary of State is meaningless, due to the 14 'special envoy's Owe-bama appointed. Owe- bama's first move after her swearing in was to effectively 'de-ball' her.
my anti groupie can't get through life without me.
I doubt she would take the job because it would tie her down in DC,cut off all her under the table cash payments,and most of all,require her to do the actual work. Right now she has a staff to do all the work and all the thinking,and all she does is fly around the world and give out off-shore bank account numbers. On top of that there is no way in hell her ego is going to allow her to accept a minor position as one in a crowd.

I wouldn't trust either Orrin Hatch or Hillary as far as I could throw them between here and Pluto. Hatch is greatly responsible for making copyrights virtually perminent in this nation which was a big step toward the "Progressive" Corporate/State fascist style of government we have in these times.
