His background in terms of race relations was questionable.", has not been well established unless by questionable you meerly mean someone questioned it. The Democrats were strongly against him, so they played the race card without solid foundation. Abscent solid support for the idea that he is a racist your whole theory falls apart. It is not necessary to discuss this topic at all if you can recall Chuck Schumer's statement at the end of the Pickering hearings. Schumer made it clear that it was TOTALLY about ideology. While he attempted to sanitize it in the media, if you saw his statement there was no doubt that Schumer intended to extend the notion of "advise and consent" to "unbridled veto power". This is wrong, and it is sheer joy watching Bush reverse a Borking. A really good article on the subject: hnn.us

He finds for the defendent who's a cross burner and you question where his head is at. By your standards, no one is ever a racist. ted
