Fox (SEARCH) News reports that Democrats are lining up to filibuster a third minority judge. They offer no comment from the Senate Minority Leader, Tom Daschle, on why the dems would filibuster such a well qualified candidate.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Carolyn Kuhl is poised to join Miguel Estrada and Priscilla Owen on the list of President Bush's judicial nominees to be filibustered. [...]I'm beginning to notice a pattern of discrimination here. Apparently if you are a woman or Hispanic, you aren't good enough for the democratic party. The only other thing the candidates have in common is that they were all nominated by George W. Bush. That couldn't be it, could it?Kuhl has heavy support in California's legal circles, where 100 judges, many of them Democrats, have written Congress in support of her nomination.
Her backers say she is fair, even-handed and is being unduly criticized.
