WASHINGTON (AP) - President Barack Obama will nominate Solicitor General Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court, a person familiar with the president's thinking said Sunday night. The move positions the court to have three female justices for the first time in history.

The source spoke on condition of anonymity because the decision had not been made public. Obama will announce his choice at 10 a.m. Monday in the East Room of the White House.

I don’t think her being Jewish or lesbian or chubby is relevant to her selection. Her judicial philosophy is.

Actually, imo, no judicial experience would be a positive.

But any opposition to her judicial philosophy will be spun as anti-Semitism, homophobia, and anti-fatness bigotry.

No hope there. Maybe a suit and tie would help. And a crew cut.

She fought to keep the military recruiter off Harvard campus. Took her case all the way to the USSC and LOST.

Even Ruthie voted against her.

I don’t know the details of the case, it will surely come up during the confirmation hearings.

Since O ade a big issue of appointing a wise latina, I think we have every right to characterize her as a jewisha lesbiana.

If you are offended.....ignore my comments.

To the leader of the evil regime, Mother’s Day is the appropriate time to announce his selection of a lesbian to sit her fat arse down on the bench alongside two other ugly women.

“So how did you arrive at “she’s a communist”?”

Obama would like her on the Supreme Court. That seems a strong indicator of Marxism.

Only if our side insists on making bigoted comments will the real issues be pushed to the side. Ed Whelan summed them up pretty well:

Conservatives know Kagan as the Harvard Law School Dean who tried to bar the military from college campuses, an issue she fought all the way to the Supreme Court.

Odd that there is no discussion of her personal life at all. “In the closet” with a “life partner”?

They’re scared to death of this getting out. That simple.

By being a Lesbian and/or a Marxist, she’d lack a lot more than just judicial experience for the position. She’s missed out a many of the basic experiences of the average human being.

I don’t know that she is either of those.

Unattractive women often don’t get husbands. I don’t know that she is a Marxist.

Nor do you.

“A Lesbian Marxist with no judicial experience.”

Judicial experience isn’t necessary for writting one’s own laws. Just need a couple of #2 pencils and a yellow legal pad. It ain’t that hard...

Are we having sympathy for her because she’s simply a female? I know lots of unattractive, over-weight women who are mothers, wives, etc.

If Obama chose her......
