Mrs. Cotner was born in Chatham County on He undertook a similar effort with Roberts and Alito.

Rest in Peace Ms.Kreye! What makes Bork so much more dangerous than others? Being on the Court would have been great, but it really would have been a dissenting role so much of the time.

And they didnt have the Saturday Night Massacre with Archibald Cox. You meant so very much to me. Ive been in the process of talking with him. I called Kennedys office a little bit before, maybe three days before he came out in support of Barack, and I said I really needed to meet with the Senator. Kennedy was struggling with the implications of Roe v. Wade for the question of gays in the military. I had the sense that this was a guy I would love to get to know. What was it about Obama that made you feel that this was the direction the country needed to go in? Well the Griswold decision was at great issue here. Do Not Sell or Share My Personal Information.

If Bork was traumatic, this was almost trauma-squared, quadrupled, that created real angst everywhere. Although I was very much in favor of him because I had read his stuff in New Hampshire and on the First Circuit, and I thought he was a very subtle, quite moderate-to-liberal guy, I had no idea how they could possibly have come up with him. They did, but I dont think any of them were painted with the same brush. That was one of them. We went through a rehearsal: What if Bork says this? Then along comes Bork towards the end, and the country says, Wait a minute, were not going to do that either. Now with Tony Kennedy I got calls quite quickly both from Ted Kennedy and from Biden, and I told them both that I supported his nomination strongly.

Right. I now sort of remember it. It was a very tricky situation. There was some sense, in the recent hearingsIm trying to remember what exactly it was, some embarrassment.
