Cynicus The Prophet Thursday, October 06, 2005

The other member of this blog offers some predictions regarding Roe Vs. Wade; Bush's Supreme Court nominee, Harriet Miers; SCOTUS rulings that Presidential Records and testimony are confidential for national security; Abu Ghraib and Torture, Posse Comitatus; and more war in the Middle East.


Things I expect to see:

1. Bush's little office wife confirmed to SCOTUS after a fairly narrow vote, with the opposers being Repubs who didn't get the inside info

2. No immediate repeal of Roe/Wade (holding off for the 2008 Prez election as wedge)

3. SCOTUS rulings that Presidential records and testimony are confidential for national security, esp. as relates to outing Val Plame, Cheney energy meetings, etc.

4. SCOTUS rulings that Abu Ghraib, Gitmo, torture, et al are legal for the Presidency.

5. A 6-3 SCOTUS ruling that effectively undoes the Posse Comitatus Act, and lets the Prez send in the troops as he pleases domestically.

6. Some strategic time before the 2006 Congress elections (June or July, maybe?) , either "We found WMD's in Syria, let's roll ! " or "Iran is interfering with our nation building in Iraq, let's roll ! ".


These are all legitimate possibilities.
