Democrats already asked her if she's a white supremacist and if she did sexual favors (probably leftovers from the brett hearings), wonder what asinine things they'll ask now

There is no floor for how low dems will sink to smear people. There's the high road and the low road. And then there's the road they take dug out 500m below the surface of the earth

No, they didnt.

Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors, or committed any physical or verbal harassment or assault of a sexual nature? Hirono asked.

Nobody cares. They've put Dimentia Joe and 3% of the fucks given Harris up as their champions already. And the vote blue no matter who crowd has already deepthroated it. There's no reasoning with them at this point. Daring to defy them means you're and istandphobe. There's no place in this covid-1984 Clownworld for the 4 olds...

I do not like this woman. I personally feel judges chosen for the highest court should be objective and open minded but I get the feeling this woman will make decisions based on her own personal beliefs. In my thinking, if I'm on the high court, I have to make decisions based on the Constitution and the law and not on my own personal feelings.

I am anti abortion but I also know there are medical situations that some woman face where abortion may be an option in case of a medical situation that may arise.

I also think Voting and Civil Rights should be protected given this country's history in that regard so again you have to remove your own personal feelings and the Court is now loaded with ultra conservative Judges who may oppose all or parts of the Voting and Civil Rights Acts, personal freedoms, search and seizure, privacy etc so all of that is on the line with this current Court.

all they have to do is ask her if such and such is illegal, and then when she says it is, because it is, point out that trump did it and what her response to it would have been.

they could do these questions for hours, and not only would it undermine her, it would also make her undermine the republican party.

This is an impossible standard that I don't know why we pretend exists. Decisions made by judges will always be influenced by personal beliefs to some extent.

Judges hear arguments for the case. If it were purely about constitutional interpretation, consequences of decisions wouldn't need to be considered, and arguments wouldn't need to enumerate the potential consequences of decisions. The opinions authored by the justices wouldn't need to go over the potential consequences of decisions.

Even the federalist society isn't solely about being constitutional literalists. Because conveniently, they value a literal interpretation AND TRADITIONAL VALUES. When a conservative decision is at odds with a literal interpretation, then they can always fall back on the traditional values argument.

And how does one weigh the decision to go with a literal interpretation that's at odds with tradition? Why, by using one's personal value system.

She already failed to take a stance when asked if the president can unilaterally delay an election. Legally, that's not up for interpretation, so I'm unsure why she would give a wishy washy answer.

Yeah, a whole lot of people seem to forget that judges are human beings too. A degree doesn't suddenly turn them into a perfectly impartial judging robot

so do you still think people in rural areas should have more representation since you think they could cut off resources from city folk?

I think the cities ignore the areas around them at their peril. as i said a dozen fucking times in the other topic. its not "thinking" it could happen. its simple logistics.

man, you're so full of yourself that i ignored what you thought was a gotcha and now you're pushing it in other topics, lol.

must have really gotten under you skin.

might as well summon the rest of the squad to derail this topic too!

so that is what makes you think people in rural areas should have a stronger democratic vote compared to people living in more populated areas?

Try it one more time and a chess coach would call the match a draw, and Pee-Wee Herman would already have said, "I know you are, but what am I?"

IMO someone that has been in and out of jail, never worked and lives with his mommy into his 40s shouldn't even be allowed to vote. Someone that has never been in trouble with the law, worked their ass off and contributes to society imo vote is worth more than the loser criminal bum.
