| I can’t imagine any job she would deserve from this interview. It’s one thing to say that there are things she can’t comment on, but she hasn’t shown enough knowledge of the law to be hired as an associate or a law clerk. |
You are so dopey, it’s painful. One more time, for the people in the back: as a sitting judge, she MAY NOT give her opinion on ANY ISSUE that could potentially be litigated by her in the future. This, among just about every other issue the silly Democrats questioned her about, is something that has not been settled by law and to which she MAY NOT OPINE. Why can’t you people understand such a simple concept? Every nominee before her, including RBG and Kagan, states exactly the same thing; in fact, this refusal to offer opinions is called the Ginsburg Standard. Educate yourself. JUDGE RUTH BADER GINSBURG: “You are well aware that I came to this proceeding to be judged as a judge, not as an advocate. Because I am and hope to continue to be a judge, it would be wrong for me to say or preview in this legislative chamber how I would cast my vote on questions the Supreme Court may be called upon to decide. Were I to rehearse here what I would say and how I would reason on such questions, I would act injudiciously. Judges in our system are bound to decide concrete cases, not abstract issues; each case is based on particular facts and its decision should turn on those facts and the governing law, stated and explained in light of the particular arguments the parties or their representatives choose to present. A judge sworn to decide impartially can offer no forecasts, no hints, for that would show not only disregard for the specifics of the particular case, it would display disdain for the entire judicial process.” (U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee, Hearing, 7/20/1993) https://www.judiciary.senate.gov/press/rep/releases/09/04/2018/the-ginsburg-standard-no-hints-no-forecasts-no-previewsand-no-special-obligations |
You mean it’s quite striking that there are actually people who disagree with you? Maybe step out of your very narrow bubble occasionally. |
| ^^ PP is correct. I'm a right leaning independent and I think that the nomination should have waited until after the election. However, Senate Dems asking her questions they know she shouldn't answer and criticizing her when she doesn't because they don't like that she was nominated at all is distasteful. |
So much extremism here from the left. It would be frightening if it wasn’t so amusing. |
I have been here long enough to know that this amount of conservative support is being driven by non regular DCUM folks. |
Right, right... it’s not as if she’s talked for hours and hours each day about the intricacies and minutiae of her decisions, writings, and the Constitution - completely from memory. No, she’s definitely not an extremely skilled academic and judge. Nope, not her! Your desperation is so obvious. And pathetic. |
Really. Why don’t you ask Jeff to confirm that by looking at IP addresses? Run along now, while the adults talk. |
+1 It is so entertaining watching these poor liberal schlubs try to discredit ACB. They wouldn’t last five minutes in a debate against her. |
Pro-death of mother lifers? I don’t know many like you, thankfully. I will pray for your daughters. |
I know right, poor women dying of abortions is our jam! Bring on the popcorn! |
I found it really distasteful that she was unaware that the constitution sets the date for voting for elections. But considering Thom Tillis said Election Day was November 11, and nobody corrected him, maybe the COVID was frying everyone’s brains... |
I am sure pp is a white male, they are the only ones happy about this. |
PP here and I’m pro-choice. But I think it’s disgusting how Democrats like you have smeared this woman for her personal beliefs. And that you’re fear mongering that somehow she will attempt to overturn Roe. She won’t. And you know it. |
