Feinstein then continued her history lesson, gladdening the hearts of judicial activists everywhere by extolling the virtues of the Supreme Court's rulings that have shaped "the will and the culture of this nation in ways that are everlasting and profound."

Except, that was never supposed to be their purpose!

Yes, the primary weapon of the radical left in America -- defeat America and crush its liberties and freedoms through LIBERAL JUDICIAL ACTIVISM -- so that LIBERALISM will become institutionalized in America.

Plain and simple.

I wonder if Feinstein was of the same mind when Ginsberg was confirmed?

'"balanced and Fair," and not come from either extreme.'

Maybe she'll write Darth Vader Ginsburg a letter for being too 'extreme' on the liberal side?

Feinstein is the genius who repeatedly insisted on national TV that embryos used in stem cell research were not fertilized.

Can ANY Roman Catholic or Orthodox Jew be considered for the Court?

Not according to Ted Kennedy and Feinstein. (Hint: their religious views are not in line with liberalism; hence,
they fail to pass the litmus test. . . )

"I wonder if Feinstein was of the same mind when Ginsberg was confirmed?"

Based upon this line, I'm betting she was of the same mind.

"Feinstein then continued her history lesson, gladdening the hearts of judicial activists everywhere by extolling the virtues of the Supreme Court's rulings that have shaped "the will and the culture of this nation in ways that are everlasting and profound."

Makes you wonder if she has ever read the Constitution. Exactly where does it say that the USSC is supposed to shape anything?

Feinstein is playing in the mud. Even she knows that when the minority party uses the filibuster to prevent a confirmation vote, that is not equal to a rejection of the candidate.

A rejection of a candidate only occurs when the candidate has been given a floor vote for their confirmation. The vote to end debate is not the same as a vote for confirmation.

This is a fact that must be hammered home to the American public. Most Americans probably think a filibuster is some kind of feather duster.

DiFi can go get a yeast infection. Her and Boxer are left wing relics that won't vote for anyone unless they have ripped a fetus from a woman's womb with their bare hands. Her Nay vote is a given.

Kennedy claims to be Catholic.

And so does Kerry, and so does Durbin, and so does Leahy, and a bunch of other RAT baby killers.

Or any black, latino, asian.....

Unless you are lilly white and have too many hair follicles per square inch (women included), you are DOA to all liberals.

"She then proceeded to give a history lesson to those gathered, adding that the U.S. Constitution ..."

...states that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed, but she wants to undermine that, and reiterated that if she had 51 votes, it would be "Mr. and Mrs. America, turn them in."
