Which also means that Ginsberg has no say in the matter of when she will ‘go’.

“Toobin noted that the president has now nominated about a third of the nation’s federal judges — including Justices Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan — and that on nine of the nation’s 13 appeals circuits, a majority of judges were chosen by Democratic presidents. When Obama took office, Republican appointees were a majority on 10 of the circuits.”

That is horribly troubling and without disqualifying or impeaching his judicial appointments, his ramrodding of liberals to our federal courts will devastate the country within a generation.

We’re supposed to be a diverse society. Yet people want SC justices to look like them. Which is it?

The Supreme Court is jayvee stuff to Obama. I think he the cohort of billionaire puppeteers who run him have their eyes on his becoming world dictator as U.N. Secretary General.

“I think there are some particular groups that historically have been underrepresented — like Latinos and Asian Americans — that represent a larger and larger portion of the population,” he said. “And so for them to be able to see folks in robes that look like them is going to be important

The US Supreme Court is not a representative body. There is no proportionality requirement for the delegation of seats on the court.

Obama also praised the Supreme Court’s recent decision not to review lower-court rulings that struck down state prohibitions on same-sex marriage, saying he believes that the Constitution provides gays the right to marry.

I don’t recall that I ever read about marriage anywhere in the Constitution which would leave marriage entirely up to the states if I read the Tenth Amendment correctly.

If he could persuade Ginsberg to retire, he could appoint himself, Harry Reid could push it through the Senate (changing the rules to make a simple majority all that is needed), and he could resign the Presidency five minutes before being sworn in as Supreme Court Justice.

Don’t you have to show valid ID to be a justice?
