Right, other than possibly on abortion she seems like a conformist which is basically part of how she got to where she is.

Her conforming goes along with bad policy making decisions.

It was easy to tell that she was one of “them” before her confirmation hearings. Red flags which, when taken one by one, wouldn’t seen very suspicious. But she had’em all.

The three names. Arms full of Whole Foods bags when she got out of her car after shopping. The virtue-signaling designer family. Every time I saw her my BS meter was triggered. “Phony.”

When she was nominated, reading these threads it was obvious that she was “the one” ONLY because she’s Catholic. How long will it take for people to realize that the younger Catholics do not have the same foundation or principles that the boomer and pre-boomer generations of Catholics had?

PDJT’s three people are the same generation of Catholics, and all are disappointments. It seems more like a social club than a religion now, and that wasn’t the case when most of us grew up. I wasn’t raised Catholic, but tons of my friends were, and they were devout in how to live a respectable life.

Anyhow ... Just my opinion.

She didn’t snow EVERYone. Not by a long shot.

I’m conservative and I sometimes shop at Whole Foods. Their food is pretty excellent. I also shop at Trader Joe’s and I have a Subaru. And I love to go wine tasting at wineries as a hobby.

There are other conservatives who wouldn’t be caught dead doing any of these things. But I’m not surprised a Supreme Court justice shops at Whole Foods (aka “Whole Paycheck”). She’s wealthy.

(I do draw the line at Ben & Jerry’s ice cream and the anti-male razors.)

We have yet to get a woman into SCOTUS that hasn’t sucked! Ban any female SCOTUS appointment

The "equity" of the sexes has been modern society's downfall. The sexes are NOT equal, in very fundamental and consequential ways. Denying this this denies the very reality of what holds us together as a culture.

Starting with Reagan's appointment of Sandra Day O'Connor, who ruled to obliterate all sodomy laws, we've been a nation ruled by hormones.

Just remember — she got a “thumbs up” from the all the right people.

Right. Like I said, it wasn’t JUST the Whole Foods thing. It was a compilation of a few things.

In CA, I did Trader Joe’s sometimes, and even picked up some Two Buck Chuck once in a while. :)

No explanation from a SC Justice is very telling. If any Judge should give an explanation for a decision, it’s a SC Justice.

This was not a Supreme Court "decision." The Supreme Court has not decided to hear the case; they haven't even been asked to hear it. Instead, the plaintiffs asked Barrett (the Justice who hears motions from the 7th Circuit) to issue an injunction against Indiana University's policy while the plaintiffs prepare papers asking the Supreme Court to take up the case. Such motions are almost never granted, because (a) it's not clear if the Court will ever hear the case, and (b) it's likewise not clear that the plaintiffs would win even if the Court took the case.

So motions like this are very rarely granted, and the denials are usually without any explanation.

The denial of a motion like this sets no precedent; the plaintiffs can still ask the Supreme Court to take up the case. All that Barrett decided was to leave the status quo in place while the normal process goes forward.

Colleges that mandate vaccinations would be a good place to start a BDS ( Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions ) movement by demanding a refund of tuitions - especially if the vaccinations were not mandated before tuitions were paid. Students could go to court over it...maybe a class action lawsuit.

Students are not just students. They are also customers buying a product......and education...or whatever passes for education these days.

P.S. There is also the Commerce Clause.

I agree, they should get their tuition refunded. You don’t get much education from a university anyway.

I agree. HOWEVER, are privacy rights not protected by the 4th amendment?

Not really. Judge Bork was right. Basically a lot of what the guvmint pokes its nose into was so far away from imagined by the founding fathers that they found it unndecessary to secure privacy as a right.

Reagan had a 50-50 track record, like the two Bushes. Reagan gave us two excellent picks (Rehnquist for CJ and Scalia for Rehnquist's old seat), and two lousy picks (O'Connor and Kennedy, and I cut him some slack for the latter because he only selected Kennedy after the Senate torpedoed his first two picks)

IMO, Trump has the worst track record of any GOP president since probably Nixon or Eisenhower. No excuses for naming duds like Kavanaugh as his first choice, or naming a bunch of career federal judges and beltway insiders after running on a campaign pledge to "drain the swamp"

I think Barbara Lagona ("the Cuban lady") would have just been as flawed a choice as Barrett (she was a Jeb Bush pick and her husband is the son of a top Clinton advisor). Trump's entire "list" was flawed, and the people vetting them and naming his finalists for the job gave him awful advise. 90% of Trump's "list" consisted of career federal judges and ivy-league elitists.

Well, he believed "the Federalist Society" dopes even more so than the Heritage Foundation, when it came to vetting judges and recommending "good" candidates.

I wouldn't have drunk that kool-aid, I've been saying since the Bush era that I don't give a crap if the judge claims his "judicial philosophy" is "originalist". It's proven as useful as a politician claiming to be a "fiscal conservative"

Someday if you are being dragged off to a concentration camp because a Supreme Court Justice decided to "leave the status quo in place" remember your words today.
