Retired Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens said Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh does not belong on the nation's highest court. "I've changed my views for reasons that have no really relationship to his intellectual ability or his record as a federal judge," Stevens explained. "I think that his performance during the hearings caused me to change my mind." The media loves this opinion because it mirrors theirs so they run with it. I will say this to Justice Stevens -- Have you ever set before the world and had to defend your honor after a person accused you of sexual assault when there was no proof or corroborating witnesses? How might you act? Here we have a Supreme Court Judge who ignores the evidence and facts and judges a person on their personality and performance. I say Stevens is not qualified to be a judge. I would hate to be a defendant in his court room.
Leftists have been trotting out this and other statements about how a justice should never, ever provide a personal statement about individuals or issues that could compromise future rulings. And these same liberals/progressives/socialists ALWAYS seem to overlook this: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg needs to drop the political punditry and the name-calling. Three times in the past week, Justice Ginsburg has publicly discussed her view of the presidential race, in the sharpest terms. In an interview with The Times published Sunday, Justice Ginsburg said, “I can’t imagine what the country would be — with Donald Trump as our president,” joking that if her husband were alive, he might have said, “It’s time for us to move to New Zealand.” https://www.nytimes.com/2016/07/13/...-justice-ruth-bader-ginsburg.html?ref=opinion
I agree with the justice. It's really unfortunate that people had to rally around him due to certain BS allegations when his own behavior depicts why he shouldn't be on the Supreme Court in the first place. His political opponents didn't want to risk doing this the right way, so he ended up galvanizing support when they attacked him the wrong way.
Yet again, we hear from the typical liberal/progressive/socialist harpies and their nattering nonsense. When did the Democratic Party become the puritan party? They tell us what we are allowed to say and when we're allowed to say it. Their obsessiveness with politically correct speech and identity politics has them quick to act the part of the commissariat who oversees the plebes they detest. They actually do hate normal Americans, what with their use of deplorables to describe us, and they are quick to remind they are so much better than us, what with us clinging to our guns and religion. They started this, and we are ending it at the ballot box and the supreme court. And these liberals/progressives/socialists are going to become even more unhinged (if that's possible) when Ruth Bader Ginsburg quits playing Weekend at Ruthies and is actually found to have died a couple years ago and Trump replaces her with Amy Coney Barrett. I think we'll actually see leftist heads exploding...
If he was too laid back he would have gotten ripped for it also..he is ruined forever even if his career isn't ruined..and being ruined makes people pissed and act pissed
Kavanauggh had every right to get stern with the asinine questions he was peppered with. He was not just taking up for himself and his sterling reputation but he was fed up with his wife and young daughters having to hear such unsupported garbage. Any decent man would do the same. Kavanaugh is a knight in shinning armor.
