Senate Republicans continue fight for confirmation of court nominee
State Republican Committee Chairman
Kevin Mannix said last week that Sen. Ron Wy-
den and whoever is the 2004 Democrat presi-
dential nominee will have to answer to Oregon
voters as to why they applied a double standard
to Miguel Estrada.
Estrada is a Honduran immigrant who
would be the first Hispanic to serve on the
Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia.
“By requiring Estrada to answer questions
other nominees have not been forced to answer,
Sen. Wyden and his fellow Democrats have ap-
plied a double standard to this very qualified
candidate.
“Moreover, it is outrageous that they have
manipulated Senate procedure to flout the Con-
stitution," Mannix said.
“I am also amazed that Democrats would
ask questions that require the nominee to violate
the Code of Judicial Conduct, should he reply,”
added Mannix, a practicing attorney.
More than 70 newspaper editorials across
the country have condemned the tactics of the
Democrats leadership and challenged them to
abandon the “anything-goes” strategy on this
confirmation vote.
For nearly a month, the majority of Democ-
rats in the Senate have been engaged in the first
partisan effort in U.S. history to defeat a nomi-
nee by filibuster.
Last week, Wyden and Democrat presiden-
tial candidates in the Senate -- John Edwards,
John Kerry, and Joe Lieberman -- voted against
allowing an up-or-down vote before the full
Senate.
Estrada's nomination would pass with more
than the required support if Democrats would
allow an up-or-down vote.
Several Democrats broke ranks with their
party leaders and supported a confirmation vote.
“Sen. Wyden and many of his fellow Sen-
ate Democrats running for president could not
put partisanship aside to uphold the spirit of the
Constitution,” Mannix said. “Shame on them
and their obstructionist leaders for using proce-
dural maneuvers to thwart American democ-
racy.”
Senate Republicans have vowed to con-
tinue this fight until Estrada is successfully con-
firmed to serve on the Court of Appeals for the
District of Columbia.
