Kagan SC nomination

At first blush, the nomimation of Kagan for Supreme Court justice seems more than a little worrisome. No judicial experience? Supreme Court seems likes the wrong place to "learn on the job."

    sometimes its good to bring in someone who isn't tainted by the system, whatever system that may be. it's weird that all the nominees are female. not that it's a bad thing but aren't there any qualified guys as well.

    I would vote for Jessica Alba or Megan Fox for the SC

    Is this going to turn into another Harriet Miers?

    I don't know whats gonna happen here. Some people think its the end of the world, others well who cares. I know the SC has a major impact on normal life in the US. I would have thought they could have found someone who has experiance AND still not biased because of it. Or is that just me thinking that people really can be alright?

    Her and Obama are friends since their days together at the University of Chicago too. Not that she's the first friend of the POTUS to get a patronage job before, but given how things are shaking out for this administration, being that closely aligned with Obama ain't necessarily a good thing.

    The paranoia, ideas of favortism, and need to disagree for the sake of disagreeing gets a bit maddening. It could have been the reincarnation of John Marshall or Oliver Wendel Holmes, and they wouldve been criticized for not having as good a name as Antonin Scalia. The chief justice right now is the third youngest ever, no complaints found there. And as far as her being a woman and a *** and that not fitting into the mold of America, I think that only hurts Clarence Thomas.

    I could go on for hours and hours about this woman's radicalism and who in her college papers she wrote that her brother's radical socialist views shaped her political philosophies, but instead I will point out one thing. Can the President please NOT appoint someone else that looks like Janet freakin Reno?? First that Napolitano "guy" now this one... Is he trying to just scare the sh*t out of his political opponents? lol

    My concern is that she is going to be too politically motivated, based on her prior work, instead of simply interpreting the constitution.

    She's the one that banned the military from recruiting at Harvard, another flaming liberal but par for the course for this Admin.

    Good point. It really gets frustrating, do any of these people (in charge) ever remember that it's all supposed to be about freedom? I don't care about her sexual preferences, even though I may find it gross. I just wish that The Right would remember that freedom means other people may do things in their personal life that members of The Right wouldn't, and that The Left would remember that freedom includes the freedom to fail. In other words, (to the left) if you don't work, you don't eat! Clowns to the left of me, Jokers to the right...sigh.
