Ketanji Brown Jackson: Embarrassment

[nedboy7]

Trump hates anyone who knows more than him on any given subject.  Outside of MAGA that is about 99% of the population.

I’m curious as to how that relates to KBJ and her line of inquiry. Did she mention TRUMP or were you just unable to prevent yourself from doing so?

This is a dangerous game the libs are playing. They don’t realize this is one of the key issues as to why they lost.  Cultural BS and the border.

Refreshing that useful idiots are going with the qualifications schtick.

 

Let's play along....

 

You know what KBJ's most important qualifications are for being nominated and confirmed as a SC Justice?

 

That she is black and she's a woman.

 

Without meeting those two bars she would not have been considered as a nominee. Biden told us that.

 

Ironic that she can't define what a woman actually is without expert assistance, but it's a defining and essential qualification regardless.

 

Kind of diminishes the laundry list of accomplishments from Quack to have whatever you've actually accomplished in your career take a back seat to immutable characteristics that you were born with.

 

Some might even call it racist.

 

Oh and Mike Davis clerked for Gorsuch and runs the Article III project among many other highlights on his resume.

 

He's certainly well qualified to opine on the ramblings of a DEI hire at SCOTUS. 

 

 

 

 

You know who didn't even make law review (and thus was spared working 20 plus hours a week on it in addition to classes) and "only" graduated ***** laude from HLS (just like KBJ)?

 

Neil Gorsuch.

 

Funny that no one ever questions his credentials, isn't it? Why might that be?

Well she does need an expert biologist to tell her what a woman is.

 

 

 

So, in context, it would seem like Mike Davis is a serious conservative, Republican.

 

Right?

 

Anyone want to argue that?

 

Now lets consider his first sentence.

 

"This is stunning a Supreme Court justice: 1. Actually thinks we must be ruled by unelected, unaccountable (leftwing) "experts""

 

Hmmm....lets think this through.

 

There are 3 branches of government, in the US, right?  Executive, Legislative, Judicial.

 

Question.

 

Which one of these three is unelected and unaccountable?

 

Answer:  The batsht crazy judicial branch, filled with professional grade grifters (Thomas, Alito), who have ruled that the president is above the law.

 

I'm an old guy.  The current Supreme Court is, by far, the worst collection of "justices" (and i use that word loosely) i have ever seen.  That ruling, to say the president is above the law, is absolutely stunning.  Until that point, I had believed that the justices were honorable.  Maybe more conservative or liberal, but honorable.  100% chance that ruling is either reversed, or we degenerate into a dictatorship.  Those are the only two choices.

 

And for what its worth, I agree that KBJ was a DEI hire.  In my opinion, she wasnt the most qualified justice in the US to be promoted.  She was the most qualified black woman.  I dont think thats right; choosing a Supreme Court justice from ~5% of the US population.  I also dont think it right for clear liar grifters (Thomas, Alito) to remain on the court after they've demonstrated their dishonesty..

Not the question I asked. Nice deflection.
 

What were Gorsuch's?  
 

To stick with the quantifiable, her academic credentials are superior to his, no matter how you slice it. 
 

She made law review--he didn't.

 

Despite working 20-30 hours/week on law review as an editor (no matter how she got on), she graduated with the same honors he did.

The dirty little secret conservatives don't want to admit is that there are so few of them at elite educational institutions that they can almost instantly become public stars on the right, either on the bench or at think tanks. Smart liberals are relatively a dime per several dozen in those spaces. In his case, having a mother who was a Cabinet secretary under Reagan (a political nepo baby, if you will) certainly didn't hurt.

 

Full disclosure--I was in his law school (and, coincidentally, also college) class. He was considered smart, but not brilliant.  Obama (who graduated magna despite working 40 plus hours/week as LR EIC) was widely considered brilliant by people on both sides of the aisle. Didn't know Gorsuch in college, but did know him socially in law school through mutual friends (including Ken Mehlman, former RNC head who ran W's 2004 "Guns and Gays" campaign that maligned gay people to whip up the base--of course, 5 years later Ken comes out of the closet--and says "oops!") and got along with him on a personal level even if my politics are very different (much like the worlds we came from). Very disappointed in him on the bench so far, including his lying to the Senate at his confirmation hearings on Roe.

It is not a deflection, it is the reason. Her main qualifications was being a black women, Biden said it often. Until she started speaking I assumed she was likely well qualified for all the reasons you listed but she comes off poorly in every situation where she is in the minority. I disagreed with RBG often but she was a brilliant megal mind, KBJ is not similar to that and to pretend it is related to race when Clarence Thomas is just as black makes you sound like you incapable of seeing beyond your reason for liking her.

Why did you ignore the C-Span link ?

Closed mind?  Constantly posting other people’s ideas and quotes is a sign of no mind

She wasn’t a white conservative guaranteed to vote a certain way on specific cases? Something wrong with that?

Were you raised in a home where the n word was used frequently?

What were Gorsuch's qualifications, especially as compared to hers?

 

Academically she certainly objectively had the better record as noted above (but no high-powered mother to smooth the way, perhaps).

 

Why are her qualifications questioned repeatedly by conservatives, but not his?

I wonder if DEI worked its magic for KBJ once again here.

 

Tough call.

Again, Marxist DEI. It giveth to the unqualified at the expense of the qualified.
