>>Bork is like easy listening radio.. its easy to forget the original tune.

You can listen, but you obviously don't comprehend.

>>There are few today who believe the war in Vietnam was a just war.

Oh yeah?

>>Those who had the courage and moral superiority to withstand ridicule and abuse stood up and protested the war.. they, not Bork, showed they stood for truth and decent behavior.

Wrong. Most who were protesters stood up for their self-interest and like Clinton, had others die in their place. Clinton is especially despicable because of the way he had lied about his cowardice, making him a coward's coward as he is a liar's liar. What especially grates is that he lied his way into office and has since caused the deaths of many under his command. No one who did what Clinton did should be allowed to order others into combat and death.

>>Where does he stand on privacy, where has Bork stood up to complain against special prosecutors opening the private lives of any citizen to public scrutiny? Remember who complained so vehemently at his privacy being invaded over video rental records.. which led to the 1988 Video Privacy Protection Act (Bork Bill).


You are clueless! Bork had no such bill. Bork has maintained for decades that the Constitution contains no right to privacy.

Get it? Get it? Get it?

Most legal scholars now agree that the SC under Warren and later Burger made up that right to achieve a desired result: the right to abortion and contraception. Bork has always maintained that privacy is a matter for the legislature - at least until the Constitution was amended to contain the right. (Bork never argued against having a right to privacy, just that it wasn't there.)

>>He accuses a nation of failing morals and who is showing collapsing restraint.

Clinton certainly, Bork not at all.

You seem to like to argue about things you clearly have no understanding of or capacity to understand. Your lack of knowledge makes argument very difficult for those of us who do have the knowledge because it's like arguing with a five year old.
