Meanwhile Anthony Wiener and some of his fellow boot scrapins are working on a plan to disbar Clarence Thomas.

[ConjunctionJunction]

Yes, I believe this is why they’ve been working so hard to force Clarence Thomas to recuse himself or get him disbarred.

[Safrguns]

She should recuse herself permanently, because Obama wasn’t eligible to nominate her in the first place.

[FroggyTheGremlim]

Kagan is the reason liberals are going after Justices Clarence Thomas and Scalia.

Liberals know that Kagan will refuse to recuse herself.

They will claim that is Justified because of all the “bad things” Thomas and Scalia did. They will insist that Kagan doesn’t have to recuse unless Thomas and Scalia recuse.

The media will smear Thomas and Scalia relentlessly - maybe Alito too.

Liberals are so predictable.

What a pathetic joke Weiner is, not surprised he’d stoop to this.

[cripplecreek]

I wonder if Wienerboy is aware that disbarring Thomas wouldn’t be enough to remove Thomas.

[jazusamo]

Typical behavior from Rats, when they know they’re wrong they deflect and attack with lies.

Yes, wouldn't Thomas have to be impeached by Congress?

In any case it doesn't matter. Even if Kagan recuses herself and Kennedy votes for the law, a 4-4 tie lets the law stand, as far as I know.

[jazusamo]

That’s a good point, wouldn’t be surprised if he doesn’t.

[jazusamo]

If the VA or FL case goes before SCOTUS as is the tie vote would let either judges ruling stand that it’s unconstitutional.

[justiceseeker93]

Problem with this Virginia state legislator's idea is that hard leftist judges like Kagan don't give hoot about niceties like recusing oneself when there is a conflict of interest. Not when it gets in the way of a "dream" like nationalized health care.

Kagan wouldn't acknowledge a conflict of interest if one hit her in her face.

[ConjunctionJunction]

Depends on what the appellate courts decide, doesn’t it?

[SkyPilot]

Did someone mention the Bull Dyke's name?

[kevinm13]

Fat chance.

[jazusamo]

Yes it does, I said as is and if the Circuit Court of Appeals overturns Circuit Judge's ruling the same holds true, a tie vote would uphold the appellate ruling.

[Danae]

Sheesh, yeah, like thats gonna happen. Not. She is above the law now from her point of view and is certainly acting like it. Personally I think she ought to be thrown out with the wise latina and Obama.

[jazusamo]

heh heh heh

She’d make a better motor mama than a justice.

[longtermmemmory]

it is like politicians who ask about “starie decis” to USSC nominees. it is irrelevant because the USSC is not bound by any precident. They set their own precident.

[ConjunctionJunction]

OK, I think I misunderstood your original post. Sorry about that.
