Yes, I know!
I was impressed that he was able to (barely) stand. He had his cane but it looked like he was maybe trying not to use it.
Did you see him? I thought he looked great.
Why, yes. Yes, he did.
That Mike Lee. :-)
I think youre 100% correct.
"Justice Elena Kagan, who before being seated at the Court served as the dean of Harvard Law School, hired [Brett] Kavanaugh to teach at the school."
Whoops.
My gut also tells me Kavanaugh is a mistake, I have been THRILLED with Gorsuch, I believe as you do that we will have ANOTHER Roberts and Kennedy on our hands but there is not much we can do about it!!! I PRAY I am wrong about Kavanaugh HOWEVER with Rove and the Bushies ALL IN for this pick I am VERY WORRIED wish Trump would have taken up the fight for a different pick!!! There is NOTHING better than a SC Justice pick on the line to get OUR side to the polls in the midterms!!! I realize that the Justice would not be seated until after the court resumes BUT we could have also possibly gained MORE seats in the senate with the SC Justice seat on the line!!!! I also wish I felt better about this pick!!!!
Kavanaugh is Kennedy 2.0.
I hope this isn’t correct. I think POTUS should be filling the court with as many conservatives now while he has the openings because I’m not sure other spots may open during his office.
He denies it but his pre-election shows are likely easy to find.
Ignoring Levin, my gut tells me the Democrats have nothing to worry about.
No Mark the most aggressive campaign was your phone call campaign having all your listeners call the Radio Hall of Fame. That was shameful.
So what?
Read the mans decisions. Listen to the speech he gave accepting the nomination. His fidelity to the constitution is without question
>> Levin was a rabid Never-Trumper.
was
Levin was definitely an asshole, but that battle is no more.
“I need to know if hes a constitutionalist.”
Typical liar. Levin is a jealous little boy who feels hatred for Kavanaugh rather than appreciation for the awesome judge. Levin is acting as if he knows the law better than Kavanaugh. Dude. Get off the radio and get into a practice. What a punk.
Nobody perfect, but Levin right on today about Kavanaugh. I persoannly think he has much to like as far as his judicial philosophy. He is admirable as far as his character and persoal life go.
BUT Levin read the transcript of Kavanaugh’s reasoning back and forth with the Lawyer arguing against calling a penalty for disobeying the mandate a tax in the circuit case hearing prior to the Robert’s decision that the mandted resulted in a tax.
This exchange and Kavanugh’s decision on that case was the same tack Roberts took in his Scotus decision on the Obamacare mandate.
It was an exercise in avoiding precedent re the meaning of the words penalty and taxes in prior cases. Sad to hear.
Sorry guys. Read it on Levin. He MAY be right.
I will trust Jay Sekulow every time over Levin
Meese definitely needed his cane; good man :)
Levin isn’t #NeverTrump.
So what?
From what I heard, he was hired as the token conservative. Nothing more, nothing less.
His 2A position has been solid. His positions on regulatory agencies are apparently also solid, and being on the DC Circuit that would be a huge part of his docket.
He has a long paper trail. I'm hoping serious people (that rules out all Democrats and all but a few Republicans) will ask him serious questions.
