WASHINGTON (AP) - A senior House Democrat said Tuesday that senators should fully question Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan to make sure she supports abortion rights, in light of her previous backing for limiting late-term abortions.

In a letter to the Senate Judiciary Committee, Rep. Louise Slaughter of New York said she views as "troubling" a 1997 memo Kagan wrote urging then-President Bill Clinton to back all abortions of viable fetuses except when the physical health of the mother was at risk.

This exercise reminds me of wrestling with a pig ... it lends to the pig the position of being a worthy opponent. By presenting so much on this leftist commie scum, the democrats lend to her credibility ... but then, the current democrat party IS a commie fcront so I suppoe it is to be expected from this affirmative action bastard that he lend credulity to those of his stripe.

I don’t believe for a second that she isn’t an uber lib but wouldn’t it be a kick in the teeth if she turned out to be their “Stevens”?

I’m glad to hear republican senators putting up a fight on Kagan. She’s target rich too:

Kagan — why I would rather put a cannibal on the bench:

Kagan Helped Craft Clinton Strategy for Blocking Partial-Birth Abortion Ban
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2515316/posts
[Considering her murderous lust for 90% born infants to be slain without anesthesia, I would rather put a cannibal on the bench.]

Kagan: “Americans are more likely to speak of a golden past than of a golden future, of capitalism’s glories than of socialism’s greatness.”
