OMG same. They simply can't stand a powerful black woman. They can't. It messes with their ego in a way they can't even explain, and threatens their manhood for some strange reason.
I'd really hate to be an old white guy right now. Because American can't stand them.


So you're saying she should not be questioned about the same issues Amy Coney Barrett and Brett Kavanaugh were questioned about - because she's black? Interesting.
DP

Were Kavanaugh and Barrett questioned about the curriculum of where their kids went to school?


And were they asked about being white?


One was grilled mercilessly about her religion and the other about high school and beer. Democrats set the standard for ridiculous questions.


So they were not asked about being white.

BK has issues. His face looks like that of a drunkard. He was able to act out and have a temper tantrum, because he’s a white man. He doesn’t have a good and even temperament. A Supreme Court judge should do better.

AB and KJB do not have the luxury of being able to tantrum.

Hopefully, we’ll have additional qualified people added to the court in the future.


Fairly certain that if either ACB or KJB were falsely accused of sexual assault, and then grilled about it during their hearings, they too would get emotional and angry. With good reason.


KJB was falsely accused of sympathizing with and being lenient on pedophiles. And she did not get emotional and angry about that. Because she knew if she did she wouldn't receive the leniency that Kavanaugh as a white man did.



She didn't get angry about it because she was able to refer to evidence showing that her sentencing was within normal guidelines. Kavanaugh (that dastardly white man!!) didn't have any such evidence to prove his innocence.

BTW, your laser focus on race is just stupid. You seem to expect Ketanji to receive special treatment... because she's black?


I expect Republicans and even Republicans set higher standards for her to meet because she's black, yes.

When a white man had a meltdown under congressional questioning Republicans didn't say boo about it. Because men are not called out as much for showing their emotions as women are. That is a fact. If KJB had had the very same type of meltdown, with tears and shouting and grimaces, Republicans would have had a field day, demonized her as a scary, angry, out of control person, unfit to sit on the highest bench. Yes they would have. There is nothing you can say that would alter that fact.


I love the gaslighting

People *on this forum* were screeching at Kavanaugh for being unqualified because he had an emotional meltdown when someone accused him of rape - within not a single shred of evidence and whose story was riddled with so many holes and where every person named by the accuser flat out denied it, including a childhood best friend.

The Democrats were vicious, brutally vicious, to Kavanaugh for political reasons that they effectively tried to lynch him with an accuser who was coached and trained in her testimony that was - once again, refuted by every party she named.

And now the Democrats whine and moan and complain about how mean and bullying the Republicans are, when their greatest crime is to simply ask basic questions about, oh, what is a woman.



You are not tracking the point that was made. Yes, democrats were concerned about Kavanaughs temperament but Republicans were not. That is the crux.

We are also not blind. It is obvious that they are focusing on race because she is black. Did ACB have to explain anti racism or respond to accusations of CRT?


DP. The PP is absolutely correct. ACB had to deal with the laser focus on her religion. Has KBJ been asked once about her religion??


Umm. Did you not watch the hearing? LG asked her what her religion was and how faithful she was. She had never, unlike ACB, been a member of a religious cult.

Um yes. Do you not remember that cringe-y set of questions from Graham?! The part where he asks KBJ if she goes to church and how often? Or are you just listening for what you want to hear?

How can educated people watch Faux News and even pretend to know what happened? Hasn't your lack of and mis information embarrassed you enough to either seek out actual sources or at least shut up?

That would require a certain amount of self-awareness and intelligence...

Some of us actually watched the hearings and heard what she said.

Apparently not the PP who asked if KBJ had been questioned about religion.

I think you'd have to agree that KBJ wasn't *harangued* about her religion, the way ACB was. She just wasn't. Nor should she have been - but then, neither should ACB have been harassed about her Catholicism. It will certainly be interesting if we one day have a Muslim nominee who is grilled mercilessly about his religion. I'm sure none of you would object to that. Right?

“Has KBJ been asked once about her religion??”

I hope they grill all candidates who are religious fanatics.

My racist uncle in Alabama told me that judge Jackson is the reason my kids don’t go to Harvard.

So glad to live in the dmv

ACB was a “handmaid” in a cult. She deserves to be harangued. If KBJ had extreme or cultish views I’d want her to be harangued too.

How do you spell GOP?

P-O-S.

Thus dispelling any shred of doubt that a Republican majority Senate will NEVER confirm a democratic nominee.

THANK YOU GEORGIA.
