Judges

• October 22 -- Bush's Judicial Philosophy Based Purely on "Reaping Political Benefit"?
Neil Lewis' front-page story on Bush's federal puts a cynical spin on the president's judicial philosophy: "There could have been no clearer signal that Mr. Bush intended to follow the pattern set by his father and President Ronald Reagan of shifting the courts rightward and reaping the political benefit of pleasing social conservatives."

• November 14 -- Quoting Zell Only When Liberals Yell
The Times won't report Democratic Sen. Zell Miller's excoriation of his party over the Senate Intelligence memo, but quotes him to try and make conservatives look bad.

• November 4 -- The Times and the "C-Word"
A story on Democratic Sen. Schumer's filibusters against Bush nominees goes crazy with "conservative" labels.

Neil Lewis asserts Bush nominee Judge Janice Rogers Brown "would be the first black woman to sit on the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia." That probably comes as a surprise to Judith Rogers, a black judge who currently sits on the court.
