Next Supreme Court Justice
Quote: Paradigm
If Ginsburg or Breyer step down or...........and one of those two options is gonna happen before Jan of 2020, the Dems aren't going to get a majority in the Senate before then and the tears that will flow from Rachel & the Left with a 3rd Trump Scotus Nomination....oh my!
No way on God's green earth that RBG or Breyer step down during Trumps term. Die? Maybe. No way either would leave on their own.
Quote: VCUSkyhawkHe pushed for the impeachment of Clinton based on obstruction. That will be sure to be brought up during confirmation.
If and when they find something to charge Trump with, I think his position would be that impeachment is the proper venue for adjudicating the charge.
Nominating him today does not giver President Trump some kind of "free pass" should an offense be found; it just may help decide which way that charge should be handled.
Do we think a single Democrat would have tried to appease conservatives should Hillary have been the one nominating tonight?
I guess elections only have consequences when they win!!
That said, I agree with you, if it is found that he obstructed justice (not saying that he did) then articles of impeachment should at least be discussed.

Yet another reason the average campus is a joke.
These type of videos are made with every segment of the population. Everyone is dumb.
I watched CNN’s coverage of the announcement. They quickly brought up his opinion that a President can’t be indicted. It seems this will be what the opposition clings onto through the confirmation. They won’t actually debate the merits of his argument that the President can’t be indicted because this will allow for endless legal proceedings thereby halting the President from running the country. Also that the process for charging the President is already laid out, it’s called impeachment. No they won’t argue the issue. It will be all about how Trump picked him so he won’t be charged.Quote: billryanIf you asked me which of the final four might end up accused of being a Rino, it would be Kavanaugh.
Of the four, Kavanaugh seems the most likely to side with trump on the Mueller case.
I'm sure that is completely coincidental.

I wonder how many of these people saying you "can't overturn Roe" because it is "settled law" realize that they are saying that Separate But Equal should never have been overturned either as that was "settled law?"

No the only one who sucks is you. If you knew anything about the Constitution and the Supreme Court, you would know that the Supreme Court judge is left to no interpretation. All of the interpretation done by the Supreme Court must be done by following our founding father's interpretations which can be found in the Federalist Papers and Madison's Notes. Youre just another ignorant citizen who knows nothing about this countrys history and how the law is applied, but instead is brainwashed by your tell-a-lie-vision and media. Suggest you get off the internet and turn your TV off because you have been brainwashed. You probably think we live in a democracy as well just like everyone else in this thread.
You're a disgrace to this country. All the hard work and blood sweat and tears that our founding fathers have sacrificed for us only for future generation of citizens to throw out ignorant comments like yours with the audacity to say the Constitution sucks and your erroneous comment about who interprets what and how.
Sad times.

There are a lot of things that they couldn't see coming. They placed a mechanism in the Constitution to handle those things.
President Obama and President Trump could not be "President for Life" because the Constitution was amended after after FDR was elected more than twice. It hadn't been an issue previously because the precedent President Washington set had been followed or enforced (U S Grant tried for three, for example...). Now the longest a President can serve is 10 years.

And if YOU knew anything about how life really works, you'd realize that in giving the president the power to appoint judges to the SC the framers certainly understood he would appoint people friendly to his agenda.
Hello, human nature.
If the SC strictly followed stare decisis there would be little ability to interpret the law in order to allow it to adjust to the demands of changing times.
It allows (at least in theory) for fluidity, to allow the law and the fundamental undepinnings of the social order to evolve beyond the limits of current legislation.
Unhappily it also serves to fan the flames of the divisiveness of modern partisan politics.
Quote: MrVAnd if YOU knew anything about how life really works, you'd realize that in giving the president the power to appoint judges to the SC the framers certainly understood he would appoint people friendly to his agenda.
Yes,, they knew that...but along the way the number of Justices was set high enough that it would be very hard for anyone to have ONLY people friendly to their agenda on the Court. The members of the Court, unless they die in office, have some say in who replaces them since they always have the option of resigning or holding on fro dear life...

Trump said he would pick from the list.
The list was pre-vetted and contained ONLY justices who would commit to a particular conservative agenda.
That agenda was known or discovered a year or more ago, starting when Trump announced during the campaign it would be used.
The list contained several litmus-test criteria. Which allows Trump to claim he didn't ask any individual issue questions. But of course, Trump doesn't put 2 and 2 together for LITs or spinners, which is that the LIST ALREADY IS ONLY THOSE PEOPLE WHO ANSWERED THE ISSUE QUESTIONS AND PASSED THE LITMUS TESTS PUT BY THE PEOPLE WHO COMPILED THE LIST.
God, this country is so ignorant and gullible. We didn't used to be this stupid.
So, XX means nothing, because those justices under consideration had already taken an "acceptable" stance on the issues discussed in the press release.
Why wouldn't I, as a pro-choice voter, want that opposition to be prepared and organized, anyway? Especially when both Trump and McConnell are trying to railroad the process as quickly as they can.
And no, the MSM and the libs have not forgotten the separated families. You might wish, but it's being covered hourly, right alongside the irony of Thailand moving heaven and earth to reunite those boys with their families. But the US loses the kids, loses the records, can't even sort it out.

Oh, come on! "XX" is because they were going to say the same things about ANYONE he nominated. Maybe change a word here or there. Look upthread and see some liberals reactions to the Trump pick before it had even been made! To be fair, it is the same thing the liberals would have said after it had been made. It is liberal SOP and has been since Bork was nominated. Yes, this country is gullible and stupid, as too many people think the world will end if a SCOTUS nominee does not profess to love abortion.

Of course, there is still the Rand Paul issue...
Kavanaugh is not likely be the swing vote on the abortion issue...Roberts will be the fifth vote to uphold Roe v. Wade if a case comes before the court that could have impact on the issue. As long as the 4 stay in place that would uphold it now, it is in no danger from the coming court.

Of course, more women are liberals than there are female conservatives, so if you were going to put the matter to a plurality vote, in many jurisdictions, those very same women would vote in the majority to allow people to use the restroom correspondent to the gender they believe themselves to be.
Hey, and it gets them out of the mens room. Aren’t the conservative guys worried that these individuals will look at their pee-pees if they’re back in the mens room? What with all of that being terrified of gay marriage and all.
Also, if it wasn’t for the stigma attached to the genitals, which I largely blame organized religion for, every place could just have one bathroom for everybody to use and it would have always been that way. But, you have to keep those naughty bits of the boys and girls away from each other, otherwise, how could your desired abstinence-only education succeed as well as it clearly has?
Anyway, you don’t want to see rights taken away, and I generally agree with that. In fact, I like seeing rights given. Just because a woman has the right to have an abortion doesn’t mean she has to. Just because two dudes can get married doesn’t mean you have to marry a guy. I promise.

I am not so sure when you take away social pressure to conform. Let a few men be in there with them, see how they respond. Women are funny that way, many are for this kind of thing until it inconveniences or affects them. Then all of the sudden not so much. For proof there, just look at how women act when they have to pay for something they do not want but is required.
For an example of the later, look at the reaction of the women who were given cars on "Oprah" way back. Same women who would vote for a liberal handout agenda were aghast when they had to pay the gift tax.

I would argue that some religious groups are less tolerant, mostly those who say it’s a sin against God that will result in eternal damnation to do the wrong thing with your genitals. I don’t think most of the Liberals are trying to inform behavior with threats of eternal suffering.
Also, I really think you’re focusing on the most vocal liberals. Like you said, at worst I’ll just not eat somewhere. More likely than not, I don’t care what a CEO’s political opinion are, though I do understand that other people will express their opinions about him and his opinions. If he’s running for Congress, or something, then I’ll be a little more concerned.

Okay, so again I think the SCOTUS made the right call. I don’t think a person should be prevented from possessing a handgun. Apparently, many Liberals don’t either, check out this Gallup page:
https://news.gallup.com/poll/1645/guns.aspx
It seems, as of last year, that America is nearly as friendly towards handguns as they were at basically any other time. 28% of those polled think handguns should be banned, certainly not enough to lump all liberals in with them.

Wait, are the kids doing the choosing? I’m confused. I didn’t realize toddlers were capable of deciding their own medical treatment in an informed way, my mistake.
Quote:
Move to one of the 39 that don’t, if you find yourself so situated. I thought you guys were big on the Tenth Amendment?
Quote:I have backed each one up with facts. Fact is, liberals try to force their values far, far more than conservatives.
I’m pretty sure everyone does it. Like I said, Liberals have gone too far on a good many things, in my opinion.
Quote:I am not so sure when you take away social pressure to conform. Let a few men be in there with them, see how they respond. Women are funny that way, many are for this kind of thing until it inconveniences or affects them. Then all of the sudden not so much. For proof there, just look at how women act when they have to pay for something they do not want but is required.
I don’t make the news, I just report it. More women than men identify as Liberal, more women identify as Liberal than women who identify as Conservative. I didn’t make the phone calls myself, but that’s what the polls say.
Of course, now we have you making blanket generalizations about Liberal women. Nice. I almost don’t have to argue, I can just sit back and let you talk. “Women don’t know what they want because they can’t think in abstract terms,” is that basically what you’re saying?
Quote:For an example of the later, look at the reaction of the women who were given cars on "Oprah" way back. Same women who would vote for a liberal handout agenda were aghast when they had to pay the gift tax.
Hell does that have to do with anything?
