From a current WaPo article (sorry!):

For the vacancy Roberts filled in 2005, Kavanaugh told Bush that Samuel A. Alito Jr., now on the court; J. Michael Luttig, a conservative judge who sat on the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit; and Roberts would all be “solid justices.”

The dude adopted Irish children from South America! How did one not vet this??? Breaking international adoption law. If discovered, helpless little children would be STRIPPED FROM THE PARENTS AND DEPORTED! Blackmailable much? Some solid justice.

“In fact, a lower court doing so is the begining of how a precedent can be over turned.”

No, it is not. A lower court ruling that homosexual marriage is foreign to the US Constitution would be overturned in minutes. You can find a way of saying THIS case differs in some way, and the higher court can overturn an entire previous ruling, but there is a reason why lower courts are called LOWER courts.

Yeah, it is unreal. What makes you think ANY of the other nominees have a chance at being approved right now?

When Romney was the guy we had to line up behind him. Ann included. You do what you have to do in a general election and the base needed to be solidified. I’ve seen Buchanan praise McCain to the stars in 2008. Whatever you have to do to keep Obama out

YES

Stop SCOTUS morphing into a mini constitutional convention and unelected super legislative branch of government hell bent on taking America apart brick by brick.

Soros and others want SCOTUS bad.

Only way to drive America into socialism.

Were at the tipping point and have the momentum.

Nothing else matters. Political skirmishes don’t matter.

As far as the order, put the hard pick up first and easier second.

The traitorous pirate hooker RBG is coming up fast.

That’s my concern. I’ll hold my fire, but as I said on FR immediately after Kennedy announced his retirement, this all sort of had a stench of quid pro quo of Kennedy negotiating his retirement timing with an informal agreement that a pick satisfactory to Kennedy would be made. When it was announced that Kavanaugh was up for consideration and that he clerked for Kennedy, I feared the worst.

It has come to pass.

I predict he will, and I think that’s why Trump picked him. I am skeptical of this guy, though, mainly on abortion. That’s a primary issue for me.

Yeah. I don’t know about this guy.

He was involved in the Vince Foster cover up. Was on the investigation committee that concluded (falsely) that is was a suicide.

NO, Ann was a Romney groupie from long ago and continued even after he threw the 2012 election.
Mitt Romney is the quintessential establishment Bush League Republican.
He ran to the left of Ted Kennedy for Senate in 1994.
Father of Romneycare and gay marriage.

He IS the rat that she should have been smelling and didn’t.

She lost me when she supported that betraying skunk, Romney. He threw the game every time.

Ah we’ll see. The Dummycraps keep beating their chests they will fight tooth and nail but I know they’’re mostly p*ssies, all talk.

Maybe Trump set him up as the fall guy to gauge how tough the fight is, when Kavanaugh ends up as Bork 2.0 then he rolls out Barrett later..

“Lots of boilerplate diversity-signals in this little speech.“

I noticed that too. Bordered on virtue signaling. Two girls no boy not good.
I am not confident. Kagen hired this guy another danger signal. We may have a Souter.
