Tell ya what. I’m going to wait to see his decisions on the cases that come before the Supreme Court before I decide that he was a bad pick. Call me crazy.
Justice John Roberts buckled under the Obama pressure to move his fraudulent medical care forward...I have more faith in Kavanaugh, however, we'll just wait and see.
It'll be a long time for that a$$ hurt to lose it's sting after his confirmation hearings.
“...Tell ya what. I’m going to wait to see his decisions on the cases that come before the Supreme Court before I decide that he was a bad pick. Call me crazy.....”
Exactly. Right there with ya on that.
This guy is human with a family, including two little girls.
He will NOT soon forget the vile character assassination he just went thru and put his family thru...and it STILL going on with threats of impeachment should the communist luny Toons come back into power. As someone posted above: Karma may come in a black robe. What goes around, comes around. IF he ever was a “moderate”, that has likely changed after this fiasco. We shall see.
“Tell ya what. I’m going to wait to see his decisions on the cases that come before the Supreme Court before I decide that he was a bad pick. Call me crazy.”
I’m with you, but I’m optimistic.
Vengeance is MINE, saith Brett Kavanaugh.
Exactly. Wait and see. I don’t think he was billed or sold to us as a “solid Constitutionalist conservative”. I think it was pretty clear that he follows the law. That might make him more a “strict constructionalist” than a conservative. He served nearly the whole 8 years inside the GWB admin.
As for him being a “conservative”, well he is GOP for whatever that is worth. And we may have received a clue about what he stands for, of if he has been “enlightened” by the way he was treated by the left during his nomination. He didn’t need to make those comments about “revenge for the Clintons” and the like, but he did make them. Maybe it was calculated to rally support from conservatives, or maybe he was telegraphing that he has “wised up”.
But it is true, what we missed in all the hysteria was a good debate on what I think are important issues he should have been asked about. For example he ruled in favor of parts of the Patriot Act dealing with metadata collection. He ruled that the Constitution prohibits warrantless searches of individuals but not aggregated data collection. It was imo a bad decision. And as a side issue, there is a problem with the Government side-stepping its Constitutional limits by simply asking companies with government licenses such as AT&T to turn over data voluntarily. IMO the government should not be allowed to end-run around the constitution with loopholes by asking for information from companies that need government permits and make billions in government contracts.
But we weren’t going to get that kind of discussion because there are plenty on the left who want to take data collection on citizens much further. They want lists of gun owners. They want medical databases. Some cities even want contractors to disclose private affiliations or for banks and credit card companies to deny services to groups and industries they disprove of. The CTRL+Left statists want to know everything about everyone as another tool of control. Just look at the way they try to control the narrative and destroy anyone who strays from their dogma. They are a vindictive bunch who would ban free thinkers from their island - some of these TV idiots openly called for Kanye to be “re-educated”, though they put it in terms like “he should not speak publicly until he receives psychological therapy”.
And that is deliberately couched to sound compassionate when it is really all about control. In France a court has ordered Marine Le Pen to psychological evaluation because they think her ideas on governance are too far outside the mainstream. This is straight Orwellian. And we know how the CTRL+Left loves to use Europe as an example of what America should become. I love Europe and Europeans, but their politics has become a cruel joke.
He us a strict construction is. Good enough for me. Be might loose SOME on that theory, but, in the BIG picture, we win with him.
Souther was a freak who never married and lived in his mother’s basement.
I’m with you - them concern trolls just can’t help themselves...I’m sure his conversations with Collins were very carefully worded as he knew she had a bit of control as a possible “no” vote....some merely expressed historical fact w/o mentioning what may occur in the future...with the proper argument, SCOTUS may go all “Dred Scott” over at least some of Roe vs. Wade....
