Sonia Sotomayor: Brett Kavanaugh Part of Supreme Court Family Now
Breitbart ^ | 11/17/18 | Warner Todd Huston

Posted on 11/18/2018 1:55:27 AM PST by JonnyFive

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor is taking the high road regarding Justice Brett Kavanaugh, stating he is already part of the “Supreme Court family,” despite the intense criticism her liberal supporters have lathered upon him. Appearing on CNN with David Axelrod, Sotomayor noted that the court adjusted very quickly to the addition of Kavanaugh to their bench, CNN reported.

“When you’re charged with working together for most of the remainder of your life, you have to create a relationship,” Sotomayor told Axelrod during an interview that will air Saturday evening.

“The nine of us are now a family, and we’re a family with each of us our own burdens and our own obligations to others, but this is our work family, and it’s just as important as our personal family,” the 2009-confirmed justice said.

“We’ve probably spent more time with each other than most justices spend, who have spouses, with their spouses,” she added.

Smacks a bit of condescension.

It’s been so long since I witnessed liberal civility I can’t be sure. But I will take it at face value.

Democrats still want to impeach him.

Let them do it for liking beer. They always overreach.

Ruth liked wine esp fine California wine. She admitted she was not sober at State of Union and fell asleep. Let’s see if she shows up for a nap in Jan.

-—...and we’re a family with each of us our own burdens and our own obligations to others,...-—

Obligations to others, eh? I’m afraid to ask what - or who - exactly that means.

Any interest in all y’all’s obligation to the Constitution?

She’s saying: “See? We’re good leftists. Friendly. Reasonable. We’re not like those monsters who didn’t give a second thought to destroying your life and reputation. So you’ll vote with us next time around, right?”

Aware that his presence was legit and Ruth Buzzy is teetering on the cliff, she begrudgingly taught Kavenaugh the SCOTUS secret hand shake.

I think you are reading into it too much. I went to a Gorsuch event not too long ago and he said the SCOTUS was very polite to one another, and even if they disagree, they are very civil.

Try Blue Moon. They have different flavors and the orange flavor with a slice of orange is nice.
