If they can't rile up 20-somethings over their "right" to cut up and vacuum out a tiny human, how will they ever get out the midterm vote? Aside anecdote: I was sitting in a small movie theater a few days after Kennedy retired and some boomers took three seats across the aisle from me. They started talking about Kennedy's retirement and one old B word was harping on and on about how distressed she was that her daughters might have some difficulty procuring abortions in the future. Bitching and moaning about your daughter losing the right to kill your grandchildren. If that's not peak boomerism I don't know what is. they are the holders of true love....

B-Man Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Democrats on the brink How many Democratic Senators will vote to confirm Brett Kavanaugh? I suspect the answer depends on how many Republican Senators will. If Republican Senators don’t break ranks, the votes of their Democratic colleagues won’t matter. In that event, a few Democrats will probably break ranks and support the nominee in order to enhance their re-election prospects. But if it requires Democratic votes to confirm Kavanaugh, I don’t think any Democrats will supply them. It will be too difficult to explain to Democratic voters why they cast the votes that confirmed a nominee too “radical” for Susan Collins, and a nominee who will move the Supreme Court to the right. This is all conjecture, of course. I might be completely wrong. What we know is that at least two Democrats facing tough reelection campaigns in red states are positioning themselves to vote to confirm Kavanaugh if it seems politic to do so. More at the link: .

For all the upset and drama with this pick, in the end it's just a guy who replaces another guy where the only difference will pry be more conservative on a few social issues (gay marriage, abortion, affirmative action), but will make similar decisions on big businesses, voting rights, the 2nd amendment, and campaign spending that conservatives are happy about. Just making a big deal out of nothing. Doc, you've been around, they get in and then they do WHATEVER THE HELL THEY WANT in their decisions. by the second time you have realized the media has no clue at all about the mindset, and the answers to the Hearings can be broken like a pie crust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tiberius Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Interesting developments here! Quote WASHINGTON — Rod J. Rosenstein, the deputy attorney general, has asked federal prosecutors to help review the government documents of Judge Brett M. Kavanaugh, President Trump’s Supreme Court nominee, according to a letter obtained by The New York Times on Wednesday. Mr. Rosenstein’s request was an unusual insertion of politics into federal law enforcement. While the Justice Department has helped work on previous Supreme Court nominations, department lawyers in Washington typically carry out that task, not prosecutors who pursue criminal investigations nationwide. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/11/us/politics/rosenstein-kavanaugh-document-review-prosecutors.html?&hp&action=click&pgtype=Homepage&clickSource=story-heading&module=first-column-region&region=top-news&WT.nav=top-news And this! Connected? Did Cohen's hush money go to pay off these debts? Quote Supreme Court nominee Brett M. Kavanaugh incurred tens of thousands of dollars of credit card debt buying baseball tickets over the past decade and at times reported liabilities that could have exceeded the value of his cash accounts and investment assets, according to a review of Kavanaugh’s financial disclosures and information provided by the White House. White House spokesman Raj Shah told The Washington Post that Kavanaugh built up the debt by buying Washington Nationals season tickets and tickets for playoff games for himself and a “handful” of friends. Shah said some of the debts were also for home improvements. In 2016, Kavanaugh reported having between $60,000 and $200,000 in debt accrued over three credit cards and a loan. Each credit card held between $15,000 and $50,000 in debt, and a Thrift Savings Plan loan was between $15,000 and $50,000. https://www.washingtonpost.com/investigations/supreme-court-nominee-brett-kavanaugh-piled-up-credit-card-debt-by-purchasing-nationals-tickets-white-house-says/2018/07/11/8e3ad7d6-8460-11e8-9e80-403a221946a7_story.html?utm_term=.9bd3464a62ae Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The credit card debts and loan were either paid off or fell below the reporting requirements in 2017, according to the filings, which do not require details on the nature or source of such payments. Shah told The Post that Kavanaugh’s friends reimbursed him for their share of the baseball tickets and that the judge has since stopped purchasing the season tickets. Shah did not provide the names of the friends or additional details about the tickets. Kavanaugh, who is known to be a Nationals fan, declined to comment.

What are his favorite commercial women? What is his favorite non chocolate candy bar? What is his favorite fast food french fry. If he could build a dream fast food meal, what would it be? If he could go back in time to high school, what would he do different? What's his favorite Beatles album? Seen anything good on Netflix/Prime/Hulu? Any advice on a new TV?

oldmanfan Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 He is eminently qualified based on his judicial history. As were the other current judges whether they be more conservative or liberal. Elections have consequences, and this last one means you get more conservative type judges. Does that mean every decision will be conservative from now on and overturn a lot of precedent? No. Roberts will become the Kennedy like swing vote. Roberts is keenly sensitive to how the Roberts court will be considered historically and will not allow the court to careen towards either political extreme.
