Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan has gotten an angry thumbs-down from 9/11 family members who say she played a key role in quashing a lawsuit that accused the Saudi kingdom of helping finance the terror attacks.

"Kagan is the main reason why the Supreme Court ruled against the 9/11 families," said William Doyle, who lost his son in the Twin Towers.

Doyle and thousands of other 9/11 relatives had joined in a suit that traced funding for the 19 hijackers to certain Saudi royals, along with banks, corporations and Islamic charities.

The royals were let off the hook last year at the urging of Kagan, the US solicitor general.

Was this anywhere near the time that Obama bowed to the Saudi king?

Heck, both Jamie Gorelick and the Bush Family Consigliere, James Baker worked at the firm that defended the Saudis.

More than enough blame to go around on the protection of the Saudis, beginning with Bush.

Get out there on the news and scream loudly 9/11 families. I think she would be a very poor choice as a Justice and needs to be stopped somehow.

Laura Ingraham interviewed Oren Hatch this morning about Kagan and really raked him over the coals. He was stammering about “fairness” and she was reaming both him and Kagan.

Still have to look away from the photos of the 9/11 victims jumping out of the buildings....

Hard to ignore 9-11 parents. This will be one lame addition if confirmed.
