Borking Elena Kagan: Kagan Loves Borking
Maggie's Notebook ^ | June 21, 2010 | Maggie M. Thornton

When President Ronald Reagan nominated Judge Robert Bork for the U.S. Supreme Court, one of the most offensive and dishonest assaults against a man by the U.S. Government was launched, and Ted Kennedy hurled the first and immediate lethal blows.

Kennedy's successful telling of lies about Judge Bork from the floor of the U.S. Senate was wildly successful, and it was one of the most shameful days in the history of American government. Elena Kagan, Obama's Supreme Court Nominee, is on the record saying she "loved" borking Bork.

The simple way to Bork Kagan is to merely claim that her hidden papers (at the Clinton Prez Library) show her to be a racist. Since these papers are not available it can not be proven otherwise. Since being a racist is beyond the pale even dems will have to pull their support. Just say she supported policies that disenfranchised minorities at the voter booth. This should speed the opening of the files on this boob. Alinsky Rules.

If the lady loves borking, then she should be borked. It's only fair.

“Alinsky Rules.”

Normally in this society, insinuating racism would do it, but it has to be shouted from the rooftops by the mainstream media or it means nothing. As long as the MSM is complicit with 0’s agenda, nothing will happen.

Exactly! These spineless bastards won’t lift a finger. They’re more apt to sing out, “HUZZAH! HUZZAH! HUZZAH! - Kagan!”

Let’s be realistic....

The only way to stop the confirmation of Kagan is by filibuster.

Let one Republican senator take that first step. Whoever does must STAND FIRM by his decision to do so, and NOT retreat from it.

From that point, it will be up to others to follow.

Granted, I’m not informed on all the arcance provisions of Senate procedure, but is there ANY other way that the nomination could be prevented from coming to a vote?

Short of some as-yet-unrevealed bombshell that will torpedo her, nothing else will work.

I’m not optimistic. It’s just amazing (and revealing about the quality of those we elect to the Senate) that someone who so obviously is meant to be a “stealth nominee” could have gotten this far. A person totally unqualifed to hold the job for which nominated.

I still cannot understand why Bork did not call out Kennedy as a flat out liar; too much class I guess.
