So I guess Kagan is admitting she’s a political hack and votes liberal all the time?

Just read your 139——twice——I am not as informed on this type of thing as you are and this “swing vote” ploy makes more sense now.

Liberals are EVIL-—and the past 2 weeks have certainly proved that.

I have never read Schlafley’s book—but plan on doing so.

Oh, I have no great credentials. Just old.

The activism of the Warren Court was something that fell into the leftist lap. Earl Warren “aged” into a leftist after his stint as Governor.

If justices followed the Constitution there would be no swing votes. ................................. Absolutely! Had I been the 1st to answer this, I would have said the court should be comprised of all swing voters. What she is saying is that Democrats won’t get their way most of the time. If they were all democrats there would be no complaints from them nor would they allow any.

But if the appointment was made by Hillary, none of this would matter.

Kagan... well never mind!

Remember 25 years back when Justice Thomas pointed out to a reporter that he would have the office for “life.

She wouldn’t be saying this if Hillary was the one nominating judges for the U.S. Supreme Court.

“Just wait until RBG dies.”

Meanwhile, there is much for conservatives to do to clean-up the ranks of Republican party.

We have many, many weak people in the House and Senate who should be sent home to work in the hospitality industry under close supervision. And replaced with people having sound judgment.

And if true, so. the. hell. what?

Nothing demands a scotus have a swing vote.

Where was the worry when scotus banked hard left in the 60s?
