>>>Again, for now. The supreme court can overturn its own decisions, and if Bush gets the kind of supreme court he wants, it's not beyong the realm of possibility. It's no different than the very real fear some have over the court overturning its own ruling on Roe and Wade. It could happen.

Fortunately, by the time Bush got a chance to nominate any Supreme Court justices his political stock was too low to ram through a fire-breathing conservative in the Scalia-Thomas mold. Roberts seems like a pretty reasonable guy, highly qualified, who doesn't the seem the type who wants to run around overturning precedents. And most of the resistance to Harriet Miers has come from the right. They thought they were "owed" a nominee who is on record as wanting to overturn Roe v. Wade. Anything that makes them unhappy makes me happy ;-)
