SCOTUS Pandora's Box

[Votto]

Brought to you by the Democrat party.

All this talk about rejecting a Supreme Court nominee got me digging into some history.

Did you know that there are only 11 nominees to the Supreme Court that were rejected by the Senate?

Here is a list of the last 4:

1. Robert Bork (1987) Appointed by Reagan
2. G Harrold Carswell (1970) Appointed by Nixon
3. Clement Haynsworth Jr. (1969) Appointed by Nixon
4. John Parker (1930) Appointed by Herbert Hoover

All of these rejected nominees were submitted by Republican Presidents. Yay! In fact, you have to go all the way back to 1894 to see a Supreme Court justice rejected by the Senate that was appointed by a democrat.

Some interesting info,

Bork was rejected mainly because he was viewed as possibly wanting to overturn Roe vs. Wade which seems to have become an acceptable litmus test to see if they are qualified Justice. Meanwhile, Court members like Hagan have never been a judge but in terms of being qualified, she is just fine anyway.

Other Republican nominees that were rejected, such as Harrold Carswell and John Parker, were rejected because they were seen a racists. I'm not sure of the dirt they dug up on Carswell, but I can tell you what they dug up on Parker. Parker was nominated by Herbert Hoover and rejected in 1930 on the basis of this comment, "The participation of the Negro in politics is a source of evil and danger to both races and is not desired by the wise men in either race."

So all well and good, don't vote for the Republican nominated Parker, but just a few years later FDR appoints Hugo Black.

Who is Hugo Black you ask?



Hugo Black had been associate justice of the Supreme Court for less than a month when the news broke. In September of 1937, an exposé by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette found proof of Black’s membership in the Ku Klux Klan. He had joined in September of 1923, and resigned in July, 1925, as one of his first moves before running for one of Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat. Ironically, the smoking gun was Black’s resignation letter, written in legible longhand on Klan stationery, which appeared on the paper’s front page.

Franklin Roosevelt, who nominated Hugo Black, was implicated in the scandal, which threatened to have far-reaching consequences for the president’s New Deal image. What was once seen as shrewd politics — the New Deal-friendly textualist was confirmed with a 63–16 vote — had become a disgrace. “Millions of Americans,” wrote one Indiana newspaper, “will not forget this sole tangible accomplishment of President Roosevelt’s attempted ‘liberalization’ of the Supreme Court.”

Yea, sounds about right.

Just one more interesting fact, after Carswell's name and reputation had been destroyed by Leftists, Nixon then appointed Harry Blackman to take his place and was nominated 94-0, and overwhelming favorite for both parties. He then went on to author Roe vs. Wade. Yay GOP!

As for the current justices, all the democrat justices got well over 60 votes to be nominated from both parties. However, all the Republican picks got under 60 votes EXCEPT John Roberts who later upheld Obamacare. Yay GOP!

Here are the votes from the Senate each received:

Here is a list of the Democrat appointments

Sotomayor (67-29)
Kagan (63-29)
Ginsburg (96-3)
Breyer (87-9)

And now the lowly evil Republicans, except Roberts, of course

Roberts (78-22)
Thomas (52-48)
Alito (58-42)
Gorsuch (54-45)

You can always spot a conservative Justice backstabber like Roberts cuz they will always get more than 60 votes from the Senate.

Yes, I know, too long to read.

Can't be helped though.

Yes, I know, too long to read.

Can't be helped though.

That's why too many voters are stupid.

I tried to read a long court case about Kavanaugh and the 4th A a few day ago and damn near fell asleep, but the pissing and moaning of the left against a guy who probably isn't the conservative strict interpreter Scalia (God rest him) was is enough for me.

They funny thing is BK will likely not be much different than Kennedy who was a moderate but did on many occasions swing with the globalists. He was decent on 2A issues and I expect BK to be also.

Thank goodness those 4 got blocked. We'd have more in common with the Middle East than with today's America if they'd gotten through. Unfortunately Rapey Kavanaugh is being forced through against the will of the people, so we will need to be very careful to counter the fascism and theocracy he is being installed to promote.

So what would you say is a disqualification for SCOTUS?

Would you say that it was good that Parker was turned away because of his previous racist quotes?

If so, why was Hugo, one of FDR's picks, allowed to be appointed to SCOTUS having been a member of the KKK?

Why is it only the Dims reject SCOTUS nominations and the GOP does not?

Also, why is it that Dim nominations get all kinds of support but when the GOP tries to nominate the votes are close?

Hmm?

"against the will of the people" ? bullshit. 75% of americans polled wanted him confirmed. Wake up dude, the will of the people is not with the socialist radical left.

but tell me this, why is abortion the primary issue with you libs? What is it about the right to murder unborn human beings that gets you so spun up? What is it about turning it back over to the individual states and their voters to decide? Why is abortion the most important issue with leftists?

Abortion is pillar upon which the entire Progressive movement stands.

It goes all the way back to the turn of the 20th century that turned to science instead of the silly Bible. It was during that time that science fully embraced eugenics, and viewed minorities as an inferior species. Margaret Sanger then started Planned Parenthood to control the inferior breeding. In fact, Hitler picked up a great deal of his ideology from the Progressive movement in the US.

Unfortunately for them, the after effects of the Holocaust dampened the movement a bit. They dropped the notion of using abortion to control the black race to adopting a new position that it is a woman's choice. They even abandoned the science of eugenics even though abortion is a branch of that field.

As a result, more blacks have been aborted than born. If you ask me, they still were the target even though it has broadened to be a movement to regulate population in general. Progressives view unregulated populations levels as the biggest threat to the world. In reality though, if they would just target themselves it would save the world. Again, this view is a popular scientific belief much like eugenics was at the turn of the 20th century.

And as I have shown, one of the GOP nominations was shot down in order to make room for the justice that authored Roe vs. Wade.

That was the plan all along.

In September of 1937, an exposé by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette found proof of Black’s membership in the Ku Klux Klan. He had joined in September of 1923, and resigned in July, 1925, as one of his first moves before running for one of Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat. Ironically, the smoking gun was Black’s resignation letter, written in legible longhand on Klan stationery, which appeared on the paper’s front page.

Franklin Roosevelt, who nominated Hugo Black, was implicated in the scandal, which threatened to have far-reaching consequences for the president’s New Deal image. What was once seen as shrewd politics — the New Deal-friendly textualist was confirmed with a 63–16 vote — had become a disgrace. “Millions of Americans,” wrote one Indiana newspaper, “will not forget this sole tangible accomplishment of President Roosevelt’s attempted ‘liberalization’ of the Supreme Court.”

Yea, sounds about right.

Just one more interesting fact, after Carswell's name and reputation had been destroyed by Leftists, Nixon then appointed Harry Blackman to take his place and was nominated 94-0, and overwhelming favorite for both parties. He then went on to author Roe vs. Wade. Yay GOP!

As for the current justices, all the democrat justices got well over 60 votes to be nominated from both parties. However, all the Republican picks got under 60 votes EXCEPT John Roberts who later upheld Obamacare. Yay GOP!

Here are the votes from the Senate each received:

Here is a list of the Democrat appointments

Sotomayor (67-29)
Kagan (63-29)
Ginsburg (96-3)
Breyer (87-9)

And now the lowly evil Republicans, except Roberts, of course

Roberts (78-22)
Thomas (52-48)
Alito (58-42)
Gorsuch (54-45)

You can always spot a conservative Justice backstabber like Roberts cuz they will always get more than 60 votes from the Senate.

Thank goodness those 4 got blocked. We'd have more in common with the Middle East than with today's America if they'd gotten through. Unfortunately Rapey Kavanaugh is being forced through against the will of the people, so we will need to be very careful to counter the fascism and theocracy he is being installed to promote.

Lol, california has more in common with the middle east, in fact the middle east may have it better. That liberal shithole.

The Middle East is a social conservative's dream, you stupid fucking retard

No, the control people, a liberals paradise. Please don't let facts smack you across the face.

All this talk about rejecting a Supreme Court nominee got me digging into some history.

Did you know that there are only 11 nominees to the Supreme Court that were rejected by the Senate?

Here is a list of the last 4:

1. Robert Bork (1987) Appointed by Reagan
2. G Harrold Carswell (1970) Appointed by Nixon
3. Clement Haynsworth Jr. (1969) Appointed by Nixon
4. John Parker (1930) Appointed by Herbert Hoover

All of these rejected nominees were submitted by Republican Presidents. Yay! In fact, you have to go all the way back to 1894 to see a Supreme Court justice rejected by the Senate that was appointed by a democrat.

Some interesting info,

Bork was rejected mainly because he was viewed as possibly wanting to overturn Roe vs. Wade which seems to have become an acceptable litmus test to see if they are qualified Justice. Meanwhile, Court members like Hagan have never been a judge but in terms of being qualified, she is just fine anyway.

Other Republican nominees that were rejected, such as Harrold Carswell and John Parker, were rejected because they were seen a racists. I'm not sure of the dirt they dug up on Carswell, but I can tell you what they dug up on Parker. Parker was nominated by Herbert Hoover and rejected in 1930 on the basis of this comment, "The participation of the Negro in politics is a source of evil and danger to both races and is not desired by the wise men in either race."

So all well and good, don't vote for the Republican nominated Parker, but just a few years later FDR appoints Hugo Black.

"against the will of the people" ? bullshit. 75% of americans polled wanted him confirmed. Wake up dude, the will of the people is not with the socialist radical left.

but tell me this, why is abortion the primary issue with you libs? What is it about the right to murder unborn human beings that gets you so spun up? What is it about turning it back over to the individual states and their voters to decide? Why is abortion the most important issue with leftists?

That's easy.....left wing, democrat males don't want any down side to having as much sex as they can have with a woman....wether she is willing or not, see bill clinton, bob menendez.....so they have convinced democrat women that the ability to kill their babies is an act of freedom, not murder...

Thank goodness those 4 got blocked. We'd have more in common with the Middle East than with today's America if they'd gotten through. Unfortunately Rapey Kavanaugh is being forced through against the will of the people, so we will need to be very careful to counter the fascism and theocracy he is being installed to promote.

"against the will of the people" ? bullshit. 75% of americans polled wanted him confirmed. Wake up dude, the will of the people is not with the socialist radical left.

but tell me this, why is abortion the primary issue with you libs? What is it about the right to murder unborn human beings that gets you so spun up? What is it about turning it back over to the individual states and their voters to decide? Why is abortion the most important issue with leftists?

The thing most people don't realize....it is the left wing that has controlled a woman's Right to have babies, not Conservatives.....the socialists in Germany pushed having babies......the socialists in China murdered babies with their one child policy...the only people who have had government breeding programs are the left, not the Right...

It's funny you say that because you are literally the one trying to control whether a woman is forced to have a baby or not, but you think your inbred, stream of conscious rants about socialists makes that okay.

Brought to you by the Democrat party.

All this talk about rejecting a Supreme Court nominee got me digging into some history.

Did you know that there are only 11 nominees to the Supreme Court that were rejected by the Senate?

Here is a list of the last 4:

1. Robert Bork (1987) Appointed by Reagan
2. G Harrold Carswell (1970) Appointed by Nixon
3. Clement Haynsworth Jr. (1969) Appointed by Nixon
4. John Parker (1930) Appointed by Herbert Hoover

All of these rejected nominees were submitted by Republican Presidents. Yay! In fact, you have to go all the way back to 1894 to see a Supreme Court justice rejected by the Senate that was appointed by a democrat.

Some interesting info,

Bork was rejected mainly because he was viewed as possibly wanting to overturn Roe vs. Wade which seems to have become an acceptable litmus test to see if they are qualified Justice. Meanwhile, Court members like Hagan have never been a judge but in terms of being qualified, she is just fine anyway.

Other Republican nominees that were rejected, such as Harrold Carswell and John Parker, were rejected because they were seen a racists. I'm not sure of the dirt they dug up on Carswell, but I can tell you what they dug up on Parker. Parker was nominated by Herbert Hoover and rejected in 1930 on the basis of this comment, "The participation of the Negro in politics is a source of evil and danger to both races and is not desired by the wise men in either race."

So all well and good, don't vote for the Republican nominated Parker, but just a few years later FDR appoints Hugo Black.

Who is Hugo Black you ask?



Hugo Black had been associate justice of the Supreme Court for less than a month when the news broke. In September of 1937, an exposé by the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette found proof of Black’s membership in the Ku Klux Klan. He had joined in September of 1923, and resigned in July, 1925, as one of his first moves before running for one of Alabama’s U.S. Senate seat. Ironically, the smoking gun was Black’s resignation letter, written in legible longhand on Klan stationery, which appeared on the paper’s front page.

Franklin Roosevelt, who nominated Hugo Black, was implicated in the scandal, which threatened to have far-reaching consequences for the president’s New Deal image. What was once seen as shrewd politics — the New Deal-friendly textualist was confirmed with a 63–16 vote — had become a disgrace. “Millions of Americans,” wrote one Indiana newspaper, “will not forget this sole tangible accomplishment of President Roosevelt’s attempted ‘liberalization’ of the Supreme Court.”

Yea, sounds about right.

Just one more interesting fact, after Carswell's name and reputation had been destroyed by Leftists, Nixon then appointed Harry Blackman to take his place and was nominated 94-0, and overwhelming favorite for both parties. He then went on to author Roe vs. Wade. Yay GOP!

As for the current justices, all the democrat justices got well over 60 votes to be nominated from both parties. However, all the Republican picks got under 60 votes EXCEPT John Roberts who later upheld Obamacare. Yay GOP!

Here are the votes from the Senate each received:

Here is a list of the Democrat appointments

Sotomayor (67-29)
Kagan (63-29)
Ginsburg (96-3)
Breyer (87-9)

And now the lowly evil Republicans, except Roberts, of course

Roberts (78-22)
Thomas (52-48)
Alito (58-42)
Gorsuch (54-45)

Lol, california has more in common with the middle east, in fact the middle east may have it better. That liberal shithole.

The Middle East is a social conservative's dream, you stupid fucking retard

Wow but you are fucking stupid.

They share the exact same social beliefs as you. Sorry

They do not. In fact, their social beliefs more closely mimic the American left, if it can be said to resemble anything western at all.

Someday, someone will explain to you that western ideas of political left and right are not anything close to the left and right of other non-western cultures. Included in those differences is that the left and right of European cultures are nothing remotely like those of the United States and that in Europe, YOU would be considered a right wing nut.

The Middle Eastern areas you are talking about promote religion as law, deny rights to gay people, deny rights to women, oppose birth control, oppose secularism, oppose the West's liberal social freedoms, they love to drill baby drill, and on and on.

So, then you see that they are nothing like the right here in America. The right here in America does none of those things. I know you've been told they do, but you've been lied too.
