Why should we fight against Kagan's confirmation?

CASE_AGAINST_KAGAN_article

Excellent analysis. Specific, and oh-so-pointed.

A wake up-call for D's and R's. Not that any D's, or half the R's, are listening. But after Kagan is confirmed (and let's not kid ourselves--there's not the slightest chance she won't be)--let's retaliate with mass firings of "Law-makers." (quotation marks intentional, to display the irony of all this). Some of the points (See article for supporting details):

• We know she is remarkably lacking in courtroom experience.
• We know she deliberately ignored the law while at Harvard, and unfairly besmirched our military in time of war.
• We know she cut corners in order to preserve partial-birth abortions.
• We know Ms. Kagan is hostile to gun rights.
• We know she believes foreign law is highly relevant to U.S. law.
• We know she believes judges should automatically favor certain classes of people and impose their own values to reach desired outcomes.

And we know lots of other things about Ms. Kagan:

• She believes states should be forced to recognize purported marriages performed in other states (presumably such as homosexual "marriage") even if their own policies forbid it.
• She used her job as legal analyst to make political judgments about how various legal stances would benefit Democrats over Republicans.
• She supported a policy to allow human embryos to be cloned and killed.
• She said she "loved" the vicious character assault on Judge Robert Bork when he was nominated for the Supreme Court in 1987.
• And she once wrote that she hoped for "a new, revitalized, perhaps more leftist left."

So...why would any nominally intelligent, freedom-loving American want this train wreck of a "judge" writing our laws? (Yes, I know our intended branches of government...but I also know what leftist judges do.)

 

for someone who supposedly has high regard for "states' rights," billwald seems awfully unconcerned...
