Talk:John Warner
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
+ On May 23, 2005, Warner was one of fourteen moderate Senators to push through a compromise on the Democrats' use of the judicial filibuster. Under the agreement, the Democrats still have the right to filibuster a Bush Supreme Court nominee in an "extraordinary case", and the three most conservative Bush appellate court nominees (Janice Rogers Brown, Priscilla Owen and William Pryor) would receive a vote by the full Senate.

[edit] Supporter of capital punishment?
Is Warner supporter of capital punishment? I never heard he spoken in favor it. Yes, he vote for rejecting racial statistics in death penalty appeals, but also voted for require DNA testing for all federal executions. 83.24.248.162 20:18, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
- Not that this directly answers your questions, but Virginia tends to be a very death penalty-friendly state, usually ranking second in execution rates after Texas. Given that Virginia loves capital punishment and Virginia loves John Warner, I would surmise that John Warner loves capital punishment. Citation needed. --BDD 21:36, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
