I wasn't sure about Kavanaugh at first, but he certainly has all the right enemies.

Never Trumper Jennfer Rubin doesn’t want a conservative SCOTUS Associate Justice.. if he’s nominated by President Trump.

So on that score, she sides with Democrats to get even. Oh well.

Jebbifer is a Cheap Labor Express propagandist.

The last thing she wants is an honest Supreme Court Justice that would uphold the Constitution and the rule of law.

The washington post arm of the democrat party doesn’t give a gnat’s ass about the constitution.

mentally unable to process and retain information, and driven by erratic, irrational instincts

Trump's erratic irrational instincts explain how he got the air rights to Tiffany's so he could build Trump tower and how he got the best located Hotel in DC (the Old Post Office). Moon-barking mad the man is.

So as Cruz pointed out, it’s all about the 2016 election and ousting Trump

The common factor in all of these terrible things listed by Ms. Rubin seems to be that Judge Kavanaugh won’t prejudge cases without hearing the facts and evidence in each particular case. The horror!

...all the right enemies.

Only time will tell if we’ll trade places with them.

I think he is a good man, and it’s fairly obvious by the idiotic grasping at straws measure they’re using.

It’s all they’ve got.

"He refuse to say whether a president can self-pardon."

At first I thought that this grammatical train wreck of a sentence might be the fault of the original poster but when you go to the link it is actually in the WaPo.

What a sorry excuse for a fish wrap.

“He can’t say whether... he won’t say whether... he refuses to say whether...”

Let me say it again, these dimwits wouldn’t be able to tell you the difference between a search and a seizure, and they think they deserve an answer to hypothetical warrants and writs and charges that aren’t written yet.

Here’s one way that cases get to the Supreme Court:
- court rules for Party A. Party B appeals.
- appeals court rules for Party A again. Party B appeals again.
- appeals court rules for Party B, and sends it back down to the court that gave it to them.
- appeals court rules for Party A, Party B appeals.

etc, etc. Between remands and reversals and consecutive appeals and alternating appeals, you don’t know what the law is on a case from year to year or even month to month. Follow United States vs. Bullock if you like for an example. That’s back and forth five or six times over a three year period.

Hacks.

Will we see a vote on Kavanaugh anytime soon ?

Lets get this over and get on to Ginsburg. That one will really make the lib’s lose it

The Constitution provides the enumerated and exclusive power of the pardon to the President. There are only TWO limitations.

1) it must be a federal crime
2) can not pardon impeachments

Personally, I would like to see the power limited to CONVICTION of federal crimes. That would prevent the use of a "pre" crime pardon. It would also work against a self pardon as the President (most likely) would be impeached before being tried and convicted of a federal crime.

[preferred changes in bold]

"shall have power to grant reprieves and pardons for conviction of offenses against the United States, except in cases of impeachment".

Hey Jenny, do you know how Thomas, or Roberts, or Alito, or Gorsuch would rule on any of those exact same issues? I suspect not, because none of them have been asked about or opined on those issues previously. Just like Kavanaugh....

By her twisted logic, no Justices should ever be confirmed because we're "gambling with the Constitution" by not nailing them down on every issue before they get confirmed.

What a shallow-thinking twit.

Surely, based on these basic constitutional principles, he should be able to give the Senate some comfort that he would not allow the president who nominated him to bribe cronies with promised pardons, evade a lawful subpoena, fire prosecutors, instruct the Justice Department to prosecute only Democrats, shut down an investigation into his own criminality, and pardon himself (as well as his family and associates, I presume).

This is great. You can tell he wrote this rant all in one breath and felt great when he re-read it. What a clown.

Ms. Rubin’s passion for the Senate to reject Kavanaugh has exposed her for what she is, a partisan hack posing as a journalist. She knows full well that Kavanaugh, as other nominees before him going back to Ginsburg, will not answer suppositions or become embroiled in politics. To do so would be friends for rejection. And as of now they have none.

Seeing these idiot Liberals asking the questions that were prewritten for them was embarrassing. They could not follow a word Kavanagh was answering. Mouths open like Prozac zombies.
