Gotta love the headline.....having X number of women is the important thing. Upholding th Constitution? Probably a distant 9th in order of importance.

“She would be the youngest justice on the court and give it three women for the first time in history.”

They really have to scrape the bottom of the barrel to make things “historic” these days. Wow, the first time there’s been three! How could we have ever dreamed of such a feat back when there were merely two? I told my children to stay healthy, in the hopes that one day they’d live to see three. Little did I know it was coming faster than we could ever imagine.

Her gender is debateable.

[rlmorel]

I don’t know. As Mark Levin is fond of saying “Now we have three (STATE GENITALIA HERE)on the Supreme Court.”

That will fix what is wrong with the Republic!

‘Champion for typical Americans’?

Only if your ‘typical American’ is an Ivy League liberal

If Allen Kagan is the best Obama has to offer, then just give me another musty old honkey on the bench! *HARUMPH!*

"But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come: for men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away, for his name is Obama."

AND NO VETERANS!!!!

AND NO WHITE MALE PROTESTANTS!!!!

I get this feeling this confirmation battle is going to be more theatrical than the last few. Anyone care to bet on whether the nominee will out herself in front of Congress?

[MHGinTN]

Barry the bastard isn’t appointing to uphold the Constitution. He’s absolutely appointing those whom he knows will change ... we no longer live in a We The People Constitutional Republic. Barry the bastard is just solidifying federal oligarchical rule through the subPreme Court.

“AND NO WHITE MALE PROTESTANTS!!!!”

No Protestants......period!

Anyone care to bet on whether the nominee will out herself in front of Congress?

I just prefer that it would just out itself out the door and not let the door hit it on the way out.

[Jewbacca]

But I thought Souter had the “homosexual” seat.

Some analysis

Count the women or minorities.

[Chode]

it'll take a gender test to prove it to me...

[wardaddy]

Court will now be either Jewish or Catholic.

hmmm

[Blood of Tyrants]

But not one Protestant Christian despite more than half of the population claims to be Protestant.
