You all have yet to point out one extreme position Moore has.

I think he advocated the death penalty for homosexuality, though I doubt Philip would find that extreme. Wink

Moore: "The State carries the power of the sword, that is, the power to prohibit [homosexual] conduct with physical penalties, such as confinement and even execution. It must use that power to prevent the subversion of children toward this lifestyle, to not encourage a criminal lifestyle."

Trent Lott would probably vote for Moore.

As far-right as Bush is governing, I still can't imagine him nominating Moore, though.

Every Republican would vote against him save Coburn, DeMint, Inholfe, Cornyn, Shelby, Sessions, Bunning, and Brownback.  I'm not even sure if Santorum would follow along.

There would be no need.  He wouldn't get more than 10 votes in the Senate.

Hah, I think he'd get more like between 48 and 51.  The only Republicans I can think of that would vote against him are Chaffee, Snow, Collins, Specter for sure, maybe McCain, and who else?  Just possibly Voinovich or Lugar?  Who am I missing that isn't in lockstep obedience to the religious?
