A controversial nominee for the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals apologized Friday for sending Senate Judiciary Committee members an incomplete portfolio about himself and said he'd do whatever he could to win the committee's trust.

Republican senators called into question Goodwin Liu's temperament as a possible judge, blasting the controversial 9th Circuit Court of Appeals nominee during his confirmation hearing Friday over statements he made about Supreme Court Judge Samuel Alito's "vision of America."

At the time of Judge Alito's confirmation process Liu was quoted as saying that "in Judge Alito's America, the police may shoot unarmed Americans ... the FBI may install a camera where you sleep ... an all white jury may convict a black man to death."

Sen. Jeff Sessions, R-Ala, ranking member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, said the professor's views "represent the very vanguard of what I would call intellectual judicial activism."

This turd is hiding his record and tries to trick them with an incomplete portfolio. The Judiciary committee should reject this left wing extremist and NEVER confirm him for so much as a public defender.

Blacklist him. Then again should I say black?

100 missing items?? obviously no simple oversight but calculated deception

[Steelfish]

Any senator who confirms this bastard must be kicked out of office- body and soul.

and said he'd do whatever he could to win the committee's trust...

For starters, how about withdrawing from being considered for the post...

[Pollster1]

Unless they’d be convinced if Charles Manson, Ted Kaczynski, Bill Ayers, or a similar nutcase promised to work to earn their trust, they shouldn’t believe or accept this moron.

When a liar tells you “trust him” there is only one outcome. And we know how the last liar and his hopey-changey worked out.

Gay trust?

That a-hole Grahamnesty is on the Senate judiciary Committee.

"said he'd do whatever he could to win the committee's trust"

Translation: "said he'd Lie, Cheat or Steal to win the committee's trust"

Okay.

Work on that and come back in ten years.

Meantime, get lost.

Bingo. And they were among his most radical statements, so there was such obvious intent that the idea that he can "regain trust" is laughable.

“You don’t need to work hard to establish our trust. You have had years, and have proven beyond a reasonable doubt that you do not deserve our trust. In fact, even a preponderance of the evidence indicates that you are a scoundrel.”
