Why Republicans keep talking about Amy Coney Barrett’s 7 kids

Basically, as a buffer to counter the legitimate criticism for her far rightwing views that'll lead to Republicans obstruct justice and enact their radical will on the country...

Correct, a red herring.
Is she qualified?

Define "qualified". Anyone who has graduated law school and has practiced before the bar, is technically "qualified". ACB has been "groomed" by the Federalist Society so that her qualifications and background are impeccable and unquestionable. To me, if you don't accept "precedent", you're not "qualified".

If you have to hide, cover up and lie about your beliefs, as she did this week, you are definitely not qualified, and just based on the lies she told in the hearing, would disqualify her in my view. The first lie out of her mouth, makes her entirely unsuitable.

If she can't tell the truth in her confirmation hearing, how can you trust her to be telling you the truth about what she would do as a judge, or what her views are?
Did you watch the Ginsburg, Kagan and Sotomayor hearings?
 
What "far right wing views" might those be? Try to be specific.

ACB has been a darling of the Federalist society since she was in law school. She was one of the young Republican lawyers working for the Republican Party's theft of the 2000 election. She refused to confirm any belief in "predecents' that she disagrees with - like Roe v. Wade, or gay marriage, or other things the rabid right doesn't like.

I could not help but note that she considered Brown v. Board of Education as "precedent", but not Roe v. Wade. ACB has tried to obfuscate her politics and radical views from the American public in this hearing, but the cases which she refuses to acknowledge as "precedent" include a womans right to use birth control in her own home, were chilling indeed. She failed to notify the Senate of a number of ads she has endorsed regarding abortion, gay marriage, and the ACA. She has given speeches on multiple occasions to organizations with an avowed purpose of overturning gay marriage.

She failed to notify the Senate of these positions in her initial confirmation documents, and had to "amend" her documentation later. And although she admitted in her earlier confirmation hearing that she was aware of their anti-gay bias by the time she spoke to this organization, this week she said she was unaware of any anti-gay bias on the part of this organization today. So she not only "forgot" to tell the senate about them, she actually lied about these connections this week.

The Federalist Society has been working for generations, to pack the Federal courts with radically right wing justices, who are overwhelmingly white and male. They arrange the "right" kinds of clerkships for these students right out of law school, to put them on track for high court nominations. ACB has been on their radar as a good little soldier for the cause, since she was in law school.

The Federatist Society has used dark money to advance these nominations. They've run ads in support PR campaigns for their favoured nominees including Kavenaugh and ACB. 48 of the 52 federal appeals court judges appointed by Donald Trump, were on the Federalist Society list.

Not a link to be found in any of that mess, go figure.

As an aside, how are those Covid Isolation Centers working out for you up there?

Here's your links - not that I expect you to read them.



You could have googled them too, just like I googled the Isolation Centres after you asked the question:

Too soon to tell. They're just opening now. I do like the idea.

I wouldn't need one because I live alone. If I were living with one of my kids and someone in the house tested positive, the rest of us would be screwed. We could isolate them in the basement of any of their homes, but if they were in the basement, how would the rest of us get laundry done?

With the covid centres, the sick one can go there, and not have to worry about infecting the family. My daughter is very high risk, and couldn't care for or safely live with anyone with covid.

Not my job, it was your assertion. Not even a hint of malfeasance, nothing. She dislosed (according to your link) everything she was supposed to. Dark money? Nothing there. She is not required to notify ANYONE of her "positions". She is squeakey clean and a perfect fit.

Being a Constitutionalist is now being "far rightwing"? Wow, can you see just how far left
you've become?
yep long ago marc was not as far left as he has become.....i guess hate can do that to you.....


TextBook Case of UnTreated TDS.

Sad really.

Ted Cruz was asking about her kids' piano lessons.

Let's talk about that when they become concert pianist's, Ok Ted? What a blowhard he is.
So I guess by your standards talking about your kids sports or other activities isn’t allowed until and if they hit the professional level.
You are just as bad. All drivel and non-sensical blather. It had nothing to do with why she is being nominated. Ted Cruz is a total lapdog and apparently you know no different.
Let’s us know what kind of person she is. Just like your posts let us all know you’re a pathetic shit bag. See how that works?

That's why they are foaming at the mouth!
Advise and Consent!! :death:
 
2 things about abortion everyone should have learned that watched the hearings:

1) The US is one of only 7 Nations that allow an abortion at and after the 5th month of pregnancy.
2) Roe vs. Wade is a precedent but not a super-precedent; and Amy did a stellar job of pointing out the significant difference between the two!

She is legally required to advise the Senate of her writings, decisions, and any public speeches or positions she has taken on matters likely to or on track to come up before the courts. Since ACB hasn't been a judge for very long, she doesn't have a long record of decisions, so her public speeches, positions and ads she's signed onto are more important.

If she were "squeaky clean and a good fit", she wouldn't be hiding her record, or lying about her associations. Her assertions about her associations this week were a total denial of what she had told the Senators a year ago when she was confirmed for the appeals court.

As someone who worked in law for more than 30 years, lying to the Senate should be an automatic disqualifier. Lying means she's not "squeaky clean", nor is she a perfect fit. We know this Senate will confirm her regardless.

Americans will have no reason to vote Republican now and this will cost Republicans the Senate. The courts are securely right wing for generations to come. So when Democrats are elected, and they use the Constitutional remedies to unpack the SC, and overturn the corrupt Republican majority in the courts, don't say you weren't warned.

The woman is eminently qualified, get over yourself.

define eminently qualified

the handmaiden doesn't seem very qualified to me, she seems like a housewife with a love for capital

To quote you, "you seem sort of like a retard" so you wouldn't understand if I did. She the most intelligent peson in that room and she is quite clear in expressing that each case has it's own set of evidence, grievances and aguments to be heard. Intelligent people understand that one canot make "ruling" on hypotheticals.

If you think Barret is the most intelligent person in a room of hundreds of elites you're insane

She's obviously an affirmative action candidate. She travels in circles that lack female elites
everyone else had notes...she didnt....and if you think that room full of elites were a group of highly intelligent people than you are somewhat insane....

Stop projecting your rabid devotion to Donald Trump onto others. I provided sane, reasonable and proveable commentary, and you respond with childish pettiness. If you had a sane, reasonable response you would have used it.

You concession is appreciated.
