“How in the hell do you think segregation laws in the south were overturned?”
NOT by a lower court ruling segregation was illegal!
Yes, bY a case coming up to the SCOTUS with a legal challenge to segregation. The appeal of the legal argument against segregation had to be accepted by SCOTUS or SCOTUS would not have had a case to examine upon which they ruled against the long standing segregation precedents.
Heard a good analysis today: If Robert Bork would’ve gone through in 1988, and assuming that he would’ve been on the bench until his death in 2013, then President Obama would have nominated another SCOTUS Justice upon Bork’s death. There would have been 5 liberal-leaning judges to 4 conservatives. But Joe Biden and Ted Kennedy messed all of that up in 1988.
Fauxahontas sure seems to hate him. A good sign?
If we lose the supreme court, we have lost America. That is just the way it is today. The commies get control of the court and they will do all their evil. You can count on seeing the country go down the liberal butt hole when they gain control. Every person we put in has to be a solid conservative. Otherwise, if they have a history of drifting left, we are finished. FINISHED!!!!
After I found out how pro-gun he is, I’m OK with him. I just hope he doesn’t turn into someone else once he’s in the court.
He’s already had time on the court to lessen his resolve. Hasn’t done so. His speech indicates he won’t
