Just have to point out the obvious here. When Bush Appointed Myers it wasn’t the left that kicked her ass out, it was the right. They did it for the same reason they oppose Kagan.
For gods sake don’t look at the facts they’ll blind you from your partisan objectives. Bunch of fuckin douchebags.
It’s just too bad people around here are too blinded by partidsanship and political stupidity to realize the only real difference between the parties are their lies and if you tear down the posters of the elephant or the ass in Washington it’ll reveal a swastika.
#30 Bobbo – “we don’t know what Kagan’s personal views are on the subject JUST BECAUSE she argued one side in a legal brief.”
I think this is an important point Bobbo has brought up. One of the problems with Kagan is that people don’t know her stand on many issues. They may try to draw inferences from her court cases but a lawyer will say anything to win a case for their client. Her stand on anything she has said or done in court is no indicator of how she truly believes.
I comment neither for nor against her at this point. I don’t know enough about her. But I hope I’m somewhere I can watch the confirmation hearings.
On a completely personal point, who would have thought Obama would appoint someone who would make Ginsburg look good?
leave it to obama to nominate Kevin James for the Court

Anyone got anything for Miers?
Yeah, I know that a resume doesn’t tell you experience but it’s amazing how often people are hired based on them. Maybe it actually DOES mean something. Another lie by the Rushlicans exposed.
i do love how vehemently you people will defend obama’s mistakes.
Now tell us why Geitner is qualified after cheating on his taxes.
She’s only been the Dean of the Harvard Law School, and Solicitor General of the USA.
What does she know about LAW?!?!
