DiFi can make all the excuses she wants but she and Durban were really out of line.

“but that it was appropriate for the Senate Judiciary Committee to quiz Ms. Barrett about her religious beliefs.”
I thought the Constitution forbade any religious test.
Maybe now (Constitution Day, btw — Sept. 17) we think it’s time to start
adding religious tests?

Imagine the indignation if the nominee was a Islam bomb thrower.

I believe you’re correct, the Constitution does forbid a religious test.

She knows it, too. That’s why she is trying to rewrite the historical record of the confirmation hearing by pretending her religious hostility was really about the nominee’s lack of trial and court experience.

Or maybe a question like, “You’re an Orthodox Jew, aren’t you? You practice your beliefs much?”

Anti-Catholicism, the last acceptable form of prejudice.

Having said that, this is a woman who has no real trial or court experience,I guess that is why DiFi voted against Elena Kagan to be on the Supreme Court?

Most of today’s jewish Americans are not religious at all. It is more like a linked in concept, a networking system.

Dianne was then just MAYOR of SF, but she was politically muuuch closer to Jim Jones --who was very successful helping young urban black men-- than is generally acknoweleged:
The popular myth is that ALL or even most of his followers gladly drank the Kool-Aid (which is where the term comes from).
Very many were FORCED.
She was his important ALLY.
He killed them ALL.

I wonder what DiFi had to say when Kennedy was questioned about his Catholic faith during the 1960 election......
