p> ENEMY OF THE CENTURY br> Re: Enemy Central's The Air Up There : /p> p>It is always hard to disagree with the final decision determining the EOW because all of the nominees actually deserve the award, or rather merit the dishonor, and certainly our wonderful U.S. Supreme Court one could argue long ago earned a career Enemy of the Century in two centuries. However, the behavior of millionairess Nancy Pelosi, the world traveler and tourist, would seem more deserving of the award this week. The total concept of this woefully misguided attempt to undermine the elected and constitutional executive branch of our government is certainly bad enough, but her lying about a message from the Israeli government to the butchers in Syria should gag any American. Further it should end Jewish Americans' electoral commitment to a Democratic Party that abuses them at every step but alas it probably will not. It took over a hundred years for the South to break their ties to the Democrats. br> -- Jack Wheatley br> Royal Oak, Michigan /p> p> The recent Supreme Court ruling on global warming is just one more example of why elections are important. One wonders if Ronald Regan had had a Republican Senate would he have made the abysmal appointment of Justice Kennedy? George W. Bush knowing he had a solid Republican Senate was able to appoint two stellar justices. Roberts and Alito working with Reagan's Scalia and Bush 41's Thomas have brought balance and sense to what could easily be a bigger joke than the courts of Eurabia. In 2008 conservatives need to think beyond punishing Republicans and think about the future or plan to see Justice Stevens replaced with someone that makes Kennedy look reasonable. br> -- Michael Tomlinson br> Jacksonville, North Carolina
