No, people stop responding because you can’t argue with stupid. |
No. If Kennedy had given Trump a list of 5 names from which he had to pick a nominee to succeed him as a quid pro quo, and that list included Garland, I would still be suspect. Trump repeatedly promised to use the list of candidates vetted by Heritage. Retiring justices don’t negotiate with the president. |

Agree. I think both Gorsuch and Kavanaugh are excellent picks. |
Nothing like some good hyperbole, amirite? ![]() |
OMG, so pathetic. And these are the people who consider themselves "educated and well-informed"? ![]() |

Apparently, some Yale Law School alum do not agree with this "unassailable" choice:

One Dem vote that I think will go to Kavanaugh is Doug Jones of Alabama. He won because he had an egregious opponent. Had another Republican besides Roy Moore won the primary, Jones would have lost.
If he wants to be a one term Senator, then he will vote against Kavanaugh. He voted for Pompeo. |
Wow. What a shocker that some of Yale’s liberal folks don’t support him. |
This exactly. Roe v. Wade is a distraction from the true reason Kavanaugh was selected. The conservative agenda of protecting corporate interests over individual rights is at the heart of this nomination. And, of course, this from Seth Abramson's tweet, which is worth a read on the Kennedy/Trump collusion: 30/ What explains this *bizarre* behavior? These risky lies? Violating a core campaign promise? Exposing Kennedy to accusations of unethical conduct? It's simple: Brett Kavanaugh had written in 2009 that a president should be exempt from *civil suits and criminal investigations*. |
Enjoy these questions prepared by Kavanaugh for the Starr investigation. Weren't asked; apparently went to far even for Starr:
