Matthew Whitaker: acting attorney general said judges should be Christian

He is right, we are a Christian Nation AND our Constitution was written by Christian men.

[SoConPubbie]

I’m not seeing the problem here!

[InsidiousMongo]

I love this guy!

[Responsibility2nd]

I like this guy more and more.

Keep him on permanent. Full time.

[LostInBayport]

Maybe Trump should just forget to nominate a new AG, and leave the acting one in place.

[Autonomous User]

The scum at Gaurdian would like them to be Moslums!

[scottinoc]

I don’t see a problem here, other than we don’t have enough college football tight ends in federal positions.

[Rebelbase]

Trump is going to fight for this man. Should be some great fireworks viewing.

[OttawaFreeper]

From the same people who are largely silent about something like this:

[pgkdan]

Ok...now I really, really like this guy.

[Empire_of_Liberty]

And they should be Men, not Women.

Thousands of years of human history knew this. We’ll just have to find out the hard way.

[Zhang Fei]

We have here Trump’s next (not acting) AG.

[Responsibility2nd]

Trump may be trolling the libs with this guy. They may grow to loathe and hate him so intensely that they will vote for anyone as fast as possible just to get rid of Whitaker.

And if they don’t go for the eventual nominee, Whitaker stays on.

And so this is yet another win/win for our side.

[ColdOne]

I am not seeing a thing wrong with this.

[dljordan]

OoooH! Heads be splodin’ all over.

[max americana]

Amen. Rightwing Christian too. Not fag-oriented leftards.

[bkopto]

Yes. Who would you rather be judged by - a Catholic Clarence Thomas or the leftist God-haters on the SC?

[hal ogen]

Great. He should be AG.

Whitaker's viewpoint on judicial philosophy will, of course, send the libs and the RINOs into orbit while they are fine with this gem of judicial philosophy:

"Whether born from experience or inherent physiological or cultural differences, a possibility I abhor less or discount less than my colleague Judge Cedarbaum, our gender and national origins may and will make a difference in our judging. Justice O'Connor has often been cited as saying that a wise old man and wise old woman will reach the same conclusion in deciding cases. I am not so sure Justice O'Connor is the author of that line since Professor Resnik attributes that line to Supreme Court Justice Coyle. I am also not so sure that I agree with the statement. First, as Professor Martha Minnow has noted, there can never be a universal definition of wise. Second, I would hope that a wise Latina woman with the richness of her experiences would more often than not reach a better conclusion than a white male who hasn't lived that life."
