Another Chick Added To The Supreme Court

[daredelvis]

You get a feeling that lot of the people who are opposed to the Military Recruting on Campus just don't like the military, and it it was not the gay issue they would find another reason to want to kick the military off campus.

If just about any company can come and recruit on campus, why not the US Military?

Go ahead and keep saying that if it makes you feel better, but discriminating against homosexuals is reason enough in my book. There is no excuse for the continuing military policy against homosexuals.

Do any of those companies have policies that discriminate against homosexuals?

No, so you have nothing but a non-sequitor.

Darn right.

Kagan Involved In 9/11 Cover Up

Supreme Court Nominee Helped Obama Shut Down 9/11 Families Lawsuits

In addition to the attacks on free speech, detainee rights and the close connections to Goldman Sachs, another noteworthy black mark on the record of Elena Kagan, the president’s nominee to the Supreme Court, is that she played a significant part in killing off the efforts of 9/11 victims’ families to bring lawsuits against members of the Saudi Royal family for financial links to the conspiracy.

Last year, thousands of family members filed suits claiming that Saudi Arabia and four of its princes actively aided in financing the terrorist attacks through front groups posing as charities.

The New York Times ran a report in June highlighting how documents uncovered by lawyers for the 9/11 families “provide new evidence of extensive financial support for Al Qaeda and other extremist groups by members of the Saudi royal family.”

The documents consisted of “several hundred thousand pages of investigative material” assembled by the 9/11 families, according to the report.

Kagan... sounds Jewish. Clearly a puppet of the Israel lobby and the NWO.

agreed, the part about her being for the NWO

Another? To whom do they refer?

Barney Franks

Larry Craig

Mark Foley

sick, perverted, with power!

they should not be in our government, sorry, no offense to homosexuals, but I think we've had enough sex scandals in washington d.c.

we need some good faithful women and men, to take up seats and SUPPORT strictly.. the Constitution!

Interesting. On your list, the only one who has not been involved in a sex scandal (that I am aware of) is Barney Frank. He is also the only person on your list that acknowledges his homosexuality.

The sex scandals are not caused by them being homosexual, but them felling that they cannot openly acknowledge their homosexuality (due to bigots like yourself).

If you want less sex scandals in DC, accept homosexuality from your politicians.

I think his roommate was a prostitute, but I might be getting him confused with someone else. It's not quite a major scandal, but it's a bit scandalous.

No. I pretty much stopped where you did.

Fair enough, but still, for me, the major scandal of Foley and Craig was not the homosexuality by itself, but that, in combination with their public anti-homosexual views. With Foley, add the age as well. It would have been just as scandalous if he was caught with female pages (just not quite as salacious).

I looked it up. The scandal with Frank was that the guy he was having a relationship was a prostitute, living, at least part time in Frank's home, and bringing "clients" to that home. They could never prove, though, that Frank was aware that his home was being used for prostitution, so the scandal never went anywhere.

She apparently lamented the decline of socialism in her college thesis:

"The story is a sad but also a chastening one for those who, more than half a century after socialism's decline, still wish to change America."

Ann Althouse comes up with a novel excuse:

Not only is it likely that she has changed since she was in her early 20s, but it is also nearly a certainty that she wrote to obtain the favor of her teachers in the Princeton University History Department. I think there is a lot more evidence that Kagan knows how to please and win the favor of those with the power to advance her career than that Kagan is a socialist. I'm just going to guess — correct me if I'm wrong — that in 1981, Princeton students were able to discern that their history professors liked socialism.

See, she was just sucking up to her socialist profs!

BTW, I'm a little puzzled why Kagan thought socialism declined "more than half a century" before she wrote her thesis in 1981.

Think there might be any context to that? In a thesis titled, "To The Final Conflict: Socialism In New York City, 1900-1933."


Epic fail.

Really, my previous comment was not strong enough. It is not just a fail, it is a lie of omission by redstate, and who knows what by you. Lazy, or as disingenuous as redstate, only you know for sure.

Thanks for reminding me why I have you on ignore.

Given that I myself was a socialist in college, I don't think it's disqualifying by any means. But I do apologize for bringing it up; it's the top story on Memeorandum right now but that doesn't mean it should be discussed at the JREF forums.

 

[daredelvis]

Ahhh... Just asking questions, I see. Please, you presented as Keagan professing a love affair with socialism and the wacky excuse posited by some of the lefties out there that she was, "just sucking up to her socialist profs!". It is a quote presented so far out of context that it is not in the least informative. Parroting Memeorandum, parroting garbage from RedState (without attribution), is a novel defense.

OBAMA FLASHBACK: A SUPREME COURT NOMINEE WITH NO JUDICIAL EXPERIENCE REQUIRES EXTREME SCRUTINY"

Here's what Obama said referring to the Harriet Meirs nomination:

One thing I do think is important, is that the White House recognize that in the absence of any judicial record on her part … uh … in the absence of any … uh … significant … uh … work that she appears to have done related to Constitutional issues, that she is going to need to be more forthcoming and the White House is going to need to be more forthcoming than they were during the Robert's nomination. … uh … Ms Meyers is completely a blank slate.

Think Obama feels the same about Kagan?

 

[thaiboxerken]

Think Obama feels the same about Kagan?

Probably not, since he actually knows Kagan and her views, personally. However, you seem to imply that Obama is being inconsistent. Have you looked on your side of the aisle?

 

[Freddy]

I'm not saying judicial experience is an absolute necessity to be a good justice. I just think that there are plenty of qualified people out there. It seems like a no brainer to pick someone who has been a judge before. I mean, why WOULDN'T you?

I agree with this. I would have liked to see Obama nominate Ann Williams of the 7th Circuit, who was rumored to be on the short list. But I'm biased because she's an ND Law grad. It also would have been nice to get a non-Ivy League justice. There are plenty of law schools that produce people who are qualified for the Supreme Court. They don't all need to come from Yale, Harvard, or Stanford (which I realize is not an Ivy).

That said, I think Kagan has shown herself to be up to the job. Also, as Dean of Harvard Law she did a good job mediating between faculty of different ideological stripes, and even brought in several prominent conservatives to Harvard Law School. I expect her to be confirmed easily unless she has a major skeleton in the closet that hasn't come to light yet.

 

[BeAChooser]

Of course he knows her and her views. Afterall, she's a socialist.
