She would be an excellent choice because all indications are she will follow the constitution. Its even better that shes a mom, is attractive, is as clean cut as anybody could imagine and even adopted a couple of Haitian kids.
So....sexism out. Racism out. The Lefts two biggest weapons are gone already. Let them condemn her for being a devout Catholic right before an election. LOL! Theyre hosed.
We dont need a judicial Committee hearing since shes been vetted before and passed with flying colors. But we do need the vacancy filled now lets not give the Ds any opportunity to slime another nominee like kavanaugh. That ( and Pelousis fake impeachment) had to have been the most disgusting spectacle ever to disgrace Washington ( and thats saying a LOT!).
ROFL!
Totally hot.
Except for throwing away a chance to cement victory in Florida and motivating millions of “moderates” to turn out and vote against Trump, there’s no downside at all. When your opponents are not very fired up, don’t throw gas on them. Trump will likely have another appointment to SC during his second term.
I’ve read that Barret has made statements indicating the fervor of her catholic faith, and that she considers it more important than the law.
This seems to me that she will not be a literal interpreter of the constitution but will interject her own opinions into it. How does that make her different from a liberal judge?
She joined an opinion that supported BLM protests over other political expression in an Illinois case: Court rejects Illinois GOP's challenge to governor's lockdown order
She talked a lot about Scalia as a professor but as a judge she seems to before big business and gov't interests over individual liberty and some groups are more equal than others.
Other potential nominee women on the courts have longer track records and should be considered.
As is the one behind her right shoulder.
I am sick of listening to the Dems.
1. Obama could not run in 2016 and Trump IS running in 2020
2. Obama submitted his nominee as was his job.
3. The Senate chose to wait until the election since the people already voted to keep a republican majority in the last interim election and since Obama was not running the people had a right to choose.
4. In 2016 people voted to make Trump president and in 2018 they INCREASED the number of Republicans in the senate based on SCOTUS.
That was a single tweet, here’s the thread, https://mobile.twitter.com/Barnes_Law/status/1308232087342784512
He gives 5 examples but I haven’t looked them over yet.
He seems to be anti-mask mandate, anti-lockdown, supports Rittenhouse's self-defense, supports Flynn. He definitely falls on the right side of the spectrum.
He's been openly observant on how various judges rulings can be predicted based on the president that nominated them. He seems to support Barbara Lagao because of her personal history (she had a life outside the political circles, outside privilege) and record as a FL state supreme court justice. He likes one of the judges from GA as well but feels she's still too young to get a vote.
When asked about that, I believe she said something like (paraphrasing): “we all have strong dogma within us, religious or not. But I don’t consider that when I interpret the law.”
No more Catholics, no matter how illustrious. We nee elements on the Court whose theo;ogy is Protestant Christian in nature, reflecting the plurality of our Founding Fathers.
And then I see the dour biddies of the pro-choice movement, and they are anything BUT beautiful.
Has anyone else noticed this?
I haven’t really examined the qualifications of Barrett versus Lagoa but it seems that Barrett would be harder to get through confirmation than Lagoa. Now’s the time to push Barrett. Even if President Trump wins (and I expect he will), there is no guarantee that the Senate will stay in Republican hands. If Trump delays nominating Barrett and the Republicans lose the Senate, her window of opportunity has probably closed for the foreseeable future.
Just the opposite is true

I find Barrett's findings in this case to be abhorrent! Is this the best we can do? My God!
