Elena Kagan will fit right in on the Supreme Court. That is not a compliment: Kagan will become yet another Justice too willing to interfere with necessary administrative decision-making. Kagan specializes in administrative law, but appears never to have been inside an administrative agency. She has limited practical experience, as her legal writing on administrative law amply demonstrates. This is a huge problem, because administrative law has to be practical and easily understood. Most law affecting American individuals and business is administrative law--in the form of regulations and rulings made by administrative agencies.

Before the Senate Judiciary Committee a short time ago, Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan appeared reluctant to admit that she wrote a 1996 Clinton White House memo aimed at altering a key medical group’s opinion of whether partial birth abortion is medically necessary. The memo, reported yesterday by National Review, has caused a stir in conservative circles because it appeared that Kagan, then a White House policy aide, put words in the medical group’s mouth in order to soften its position on the controversial procedure. But when Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch brought the subject up with Kagan, he had a...

Opening statement of Supreme Court Nominee Elena Kagan.

This is for the 81% of Americans who don't know who Elena Kagan is. A new C-SPAN poll of 1,512 voters finds far more ignorance about this year's Barack Obama choice for the Supreme Court than last year's of Sonia Sotomayor. Kagan's Senate confirmation hearings start later today before the Judiciary Committee and national TV cameras. Only 19% could name Kagan, who was Obama's solicitor general, less than half the 43% who could name Sotomayor at the start of her confirmation. From a sales point of view, voter ignorance doesn't much matter on this issue, unless you're a senator. And...

From the Harvard Law Record, via Ed Whelan, we learn that Elena Kagan considers Israeli supreme court justice Aharon Barak her "judicial hero." According to Kagan, Barak "is the judge who has best advanced democracy, human rights, the rule of law, and justice." However, it would appear that Kagan's judicial hero actually has very little regard for the rule of law and, indeed, is the antithesis of what a judge should be. That, at least, has been my understanding of Barak. It is also the view of Judge Richard Posner, and he makes a compelling case: [A]lthough he is familiar...

Since thoroughly looking at Elena Kagan’s record of writings and speeches, and noticing that she seems to have intentionally avoided expressing an opinion on virtually anything, I’ve suspected that her personal ideology is much farther to the left than her record reflects. Her college thesis on socialism is certainly suggestive of this, although I tend to agree with those who discount this as college-era exploration. (I studied Marxism at Cambridge.) Her service in the Clinton and Obama administrations, and life-long voting record, clearly establish her as a Democrat. But aside from Clinton and Obama, what sort of Democrats does she...

Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan has been a faithful Democratic donor over the past decade, lavishing nearly $15,000 on candidates from Barack Obama to Al Gore - a generous habit that may spark some fireworks at her confirmation hearings, experts said. “Other people whom Obama has tapped for other positions have given far more, but I think the question over potential conflicts could be raised by senators,” said Michael Beckle, a spokesman for Centers for Responsive Politics, a nonpartisan watchdog organization that tracks campaign donations and lobbying.

What do I think about The False Prophet’s latest Supreme Court nominee? Brevity isn’t my greatest attribute but in this case I can make it short and sweet. The second I saw the photo, despite knowing nothing of the nominee, my first thought was that Obama sought out the most militant lesbian he could find, just to make certain that he stoked as much outrage and controversy as possible. He's the ultimate suicide terrorist, flying this plane with a one way ticket. As with the 9/11 hi-jackers, he has no concern for how to land it.

To say that “Notes Left Behind” is a book about a 6-year-old girl who died is accurate, but woefully inadequate. By filling her family’s house with hidden messages of love and hope, Elena Desserich continues to celebrate life long after she succumbed to pediatric brain cancer.

The Senate has confirmed Elena Kagan as the 45th solicitor general of the United States -- and as the first woman ever to hold the position. Kagan, 48, will be the government's chief advocate before the Supreme Court, though she has never argued a case there or before any other appellate court. She has been dean of Harvard Law School since 2003 and is widely seen as a possible future nominee for the Supreme Court. Senators voted 61-31 to confirm her after three hours of debate that focused on whether she has the right kinds of experiences to be solicitor...

All those who wanted to read the December issue of the Russian Forbes will not be able to do it in the short run: one of the articles was dedicated to the only woman in the list of billionaires - Elena Baturina. The article or, to be more exact, the cover made jurists working for Baturina's company "Inteko" lodge a complaint against the magazine for the publicity containing untrustworthy and slandering information. As a result the publishing house Axel Springer responsible for Russian Forbes circulation called off the whole December issue. Baturina's words printed on the cover said: "I was...

There is no records of who built the serpents wall and when, we only know they were built in ancient times to protect my hometown from nomads tribes and some other wild folks.

My name is Elena, I run this site and I don't sell anything in here and to tell the true, I don't have anything to sell. What I do have is my bike and this absolute freedom to ride it wherever curiosity and speed demon take me to.
