Judge Kavanaugh based on his track record as a Circuit Court Appellate Judge is not suitable for the Supreme Court. He has a track record of not following the law he didn't in the "Seven Sky" case (an Affordable Care Act case), in the "Garza" case (an abortion case) and in the "Agri Processor Company" case (an illegal immigration case). Whatever you think of Supreme Court holdings they're the law it's a superior court so as a Circuit Court Judge you follow their decisions and he didn't do so in numerous cases. How can the U.S. Senate confirm him you're supposed to be protecting America's legal system promoting respect for the law putting a Justice on the Supreme Court that he himself didn't obey the law why should District Court Judges and Circuit Court Judges follow the law when a Justice Kavanaugh didn't as a lower Court Judge? Judge Kavanaugh as a Circuit Court Judge used cases before him as opportunities to apply for a job for the Supreme Court. In numerous of his cases they were like pages of a job resume demonstrating to far right groups and far right politicians he would be their champion on the Supreme Court. Human beings have the capacity to know what is going on everything doesn't have to be spelled out for them and if one reads some of his opinions with prudence one can pick-up on the truth that this is what he was doing. This is shameful beyond words because not only was he breaching his duty to interpret the law in an unbiased manner and be fair to the litigants and conduct himself in a manner that upholds the reputation of the Judiciary but he was seriously messing with peoples lives. In the abortion case where he gave the government more time to find a sponsor for the pregnant juvenile in the Office of Refugee Resettlement custody after the government had five weeks to place her where his extension would have ran her into the seventeen week of her pregnancy where the Texas state law had a twenty week limit and he didn't guarantee her a right to an abortion then but extended to the government another chance to block the juvenile from getting her abortion right. Someone with such a lack of caring for the law, the judiciary and other people is unsuitable for a seat on the Supreme Court! Judge Kavanaugh is really scary radical and extreme in some of his views. America has numerous independent regulatory agencies that do important work for the American people and Congress in its wisdom made it so the members of the governing body of each of these agencies can only be removed for good cause. Judge Kavanaugh believes this is unconstitutional that all these governing bodies members should be at will appointees of the President meaning the President can remove them for any reason at all. His views here can be garnished from his opinion in PHH v. CFPB 881 F.3d 75 (201. This would make all these agencies extremely political Presidents would be running these agencies to advance their political agenda. Imagine a President directly controlling the Federal Reserve Board to lower interest rates with the purpose of making credit more affordable to individuals and companies to help in the next election but ultimately creating asset bubbles, inflation and making the Fed unprepared to pull the country out of the next recession. The examples one can readily see would be disastrous for the American people. Judge Kavanaugh is not mainstream in this view and other views he holds and responsible people would definitely not put such a person on the Supreme Court. If the Senate does it will be making a mockery of the U.S. Constitutions "advice and consent" clause on Judicial nominees to the Supreme Court the Senate will have turned it into a completely political vetting process, if the nominee will do the majority's bidding on the Supreme Court the nominee get's confirmed - this will hurt America beyond words!
Kavanaugh's contempt for members of the Senate and for the entire advise and consent process clearly proves he is unfit for the judiciary. He is entirely too emotional and his history of excessive drinking and perversion are a sad reflection upon those whose political leanings square with his.
The Editors: It is time for the Kavanaugh nomination to be withdrawn https://www.americamagazine.org/pol...ors-it-time-kavanaugh-nomination-be-withdrawn ... Evaluating the credibility of these competing accounts is a question about which people of good will can and do disagree. The editors of this review have no special insight into who is telling the truth. If Dr. Blasey’s allegation is true, the assault and Judge Kavanaugh’s denial of it mean that he should not be seated on the U.S. Supreme Court. But even if the credibility of the allegation has not been established beyond a reasonable doubt and even if further investigation is warranted to determine its validity or clear Judge Kavanaugh’s name, we recognize that this nomination is no longer in the best interests of the country. While we previously endorsed the nomination of Judge Kavanaugh on the basis of his legal credentials and his reputation as a committed textualist, it is now clear that the nomination should be withdrawn. It is clear that Kavanaugh is unfit for the position because of his past behavior, his emotionalism, his contempt for precedent, and his total disregard for accepted norms in the judiciary and political processes.
First if YOU were accused of rape and gang-rape and these events took place decades ago and therefore are not longer crimes on paper due to the statute of limitations wouldn't you be angry? Same for childhood stupidity he was allegedly under age when the 'Ford Rape' happened and they were both drunk and therefore BOTH impaired was it rape as far as I'm concerned no it half her fault and half his fault if the event happened and her recollection is poor. So poor evidence and its all circumstantial at best. As for following precedent the US Constitution should come first if he feels a precedent was bad he has a right to overturn it what comes to mind is the Dredd Scott decision wouldn't you want if slavery continued longer that overturned if your a moral person, same thing if he feels Roe vs. Wade was poor and decides to vote to make abortion a State issue until the Congress passes a Federal Law on the matter. I feel he is fine for the court and did you ever think Trump's alternate choice could be clean as a whistle but be religious and a conservative activist as a judge willing to follow his or her moral beliefs as long as they fit within the U Constitution. That could be the case.
Claims with no evidence. Are you related to Dr Ford? Claims with no evidence. Are you related to Ms Ramirez? You literally mentioned nothing either "really scary radical" or "extreme." Need a pacifier?
LMAO... Contempt is when you go in front of Congress and make accusations citing witnesses all of which who say you're full of garbage. I understand you're a partisan hack and are hateful of everything and everyone related to Trump, but where is your love for "truth" as you seem to like bragging about in your nickname?
Do you viciously attack and slur all women, or just the ones who report how your god-kings are perverts? You're clearly not morally fit to be in the presence of decent human beings. That's why you tongue-bathe Kav the depraved. Birds of a feather. And no, I'm not sorry for triggering you. I know it's a risk. If you and your side are this unhinged and violent now, after supposedly "winning", what will you be like after the midterms? And what did you hope to gain here? Now and forever, the GOP will be known as the party of molesters. Kav the lapdog will help keep his master Trump in office out of jail until his term is over, but Trump is an albatross around your necks. If you repeal RvW, the GOP will be decimated. If you don't, your base has a meltdown. You don't seem to have thought this through. What's the plan? Will you have a corrupt SC and DearLeader simply declare that any opposition to DearLeader and TheParty is illegal? Go on, why keep your Stalinism in the closet now? Let your authoritarian freak flag fly.
With the appointment of Kavanaugh, it has been demonstrated yet again that we have the government we deserve.
