RINO Orrin Hatch says filibustering Kagan would be a ‘dirty thing to do’
Come on people of Utah! You are better than these two jokes of Senators you got! While one (soon to be ex) Utah Senator Bob Bennett is out crying like a baby about the Tea Party because he got destroyed in the primary, Orrin Hatch is now saying that a filibuster of Elena Kagan from the Republicans would be a ‘dirty thing to do.’ Orrin Hatch’s attitude represents exactly why the Republicans are where they are today. They are too soft on things like judicial nominations and lack the “dirtiness” that the Democrats have, in judicial nominations
42% oppose Kagan’s Confirmation. 36% approve
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey of Likely Voters shows that the plurality (42%) still opposes Kagan’s confirmation to the Supreme Court. Thirty-six percent (36%) favor her confirmation, and 22% are still undecided. These people aren’t stupid though. Eight-seven percent (87%) say it’s at least somewhat likely Kagan will be confirmed as a Supreme Court justice. They know that Republicans lack the backbone to oppose this radical nominee.
The Elena Kagan smoking gun?
If this is proven true, this is quite shocking. The discovery by Powerline Blog (via National Review Online) exposes Elena Kagan’s “willingness to manipulate medical science to fit the Democratic party’s political agenda on the hot-button issue of abortion.” Shannen Coffin, who was a deputy attorney general during the Bush administration, and was charged with defending the federal partial-birth abortion act in court has written about documents released by the Clinton White House that show:
Supreme Court upholds the second amendment on McDonald v. Chicago
You might have heard progressive liberals heads explode earlier today when the Supreme Court upheld the second amendment when they ruled that the Second Amendment provides all Americans a fundamental right to bear arms, a long-sought victory for gun rights advocates who have chafed at federal, state and local efforts to restrict gun ownership. The court was considering a restrictive handgun law in Chicago and one of its suburbs that was similar to the District law that it ruled against in 2008. Washington Post has more:

42% Oppose Elena Kagan’s Confirmation for SCOTUS, only 35% Favor
With all the stuff coming out on Elena Kagan, proving what a far left whack job she really is, people are taking note of it, and don’t want to see her confirmed to the SCOTUS. Forty-two percent (42%) of U.S. voters now believe Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan should not be confirmed following the Senate hearings scheduled to begin next week. That’s up a whopping nine points from the week President Obama announced her nomination and the highest level of opposition to date in Rasmussen Reports! Only 35% of those polled think she should be confirmed.
Elena Kagan in 1997: The Robert Bork hearings were the ‘best thing to ever happen to constitutional democracy’
Aside from the fact that America is a constitutional, Representative Republic, not a constitutional democracy, Elena Kagan has a lot of splainin’ to do. With all the recent stuff to come out on Kagan, she is making Sonia Sotomayor and even Ruth Bader Ginsburg look like right wing judges! Breitbart posted the following video from Kagan given at Case Western Reserve in 1997:

Elena Kagan compares the NRA with the KKK
Still don’t think Elena Kagan is just another radical activist left wing nut nominated by Obama for SCOTUS? Think again! National Review has learned that in 1996, Kagan apparently tied the NRA to the KKK — yes, the KKK — while debating the Clinton administration’s position on a bill. The bill in question was the Volunteer Protection Act, which, when it was passed and signed the following year, protected some non-profits’ volunteer workers from tort liability in certain cases. The administration worried that it would apply to volunteers from unlikable non-profits.
Princeton University’s Daniel J. Linke threatens RedState.com to take down Elena Kagen’s thesis
On Thursday, RedState.com got a hold of socialism loving Elena Kagen’s college thesis. They posted the thesis in PDF format so people could read it. By Friday, RedState.com got a threatening e-mail from University Archivist and Curator of Public Policy Papers Daniel J. Linke to take down the thesis due to copyright violations. RedState has since complied with this request, but that brings up the bigger question. What is Obama/Kagen and Princeton trying to hide? Maybe I don’t know copyright law very well but since is a student’s college thesis considered copyrighted material of the university? Maybe I should read about this on google or something since I’ve never heard of such a thing before. I’ll just be sure not to use any public location WiFi access so Google doesn’t collect my personal info. By now, the thesis is probably floating around the net somewhere so if you are interested in reading about Kagan’s love of socialism that she wrote about, you should try some search engines.
Scott Brown satisfied with Kagan’s answer on military recruiting
Another day, another RINO. Scott Brown is proving to be your prototypical RINO congressman. I guess that’s what we have come to expect from Northeastern state Republicans, and especially from a state like the People’s Republic of Massachusetts. Senator Scott Brown met with Elena Kagan this afternoon and took the opportunity to ask about her attempt to bar military recruiters from Harvard Law School. Kagan’s move to bar recruiters from a campus facility – because, she said, the military’s “Don’t ask, don’t tell” policy was discriminatory and “profoundly wrong” – has emerged as the biggest conservative talking point against her nomination. Brown, however, seemed satisfied with the solicitor general’s explanation. But as is typical for RINO cowards, Scott Brown was satisfied with her answer:
Elena Kagan shielded Saudis from 9/11 lawsuit
Here is even more of a reason why Obama picked Elena Kagan as his Supreme Nominee. Never mind how love of socialism, or anti-military stance. Kagan is also a terrorist sympathizer! WND reports that Kagan helped shield Saudi Arabia from lawsuits filed by families of 9/11 victims seeking to target countries and leaders who helped finance al-Qaida!
“I’m very concerned about her views on executive power and her views with respect to the separation of power,” Stephen A. Cozen, the lead attorney in the case for 9/11 victims, told WND.
Kagan Asked Court to ‘Embrace Theory of First Amendment That Would Allow Censorship Not Only of Radio and Television Broadcasts, But Pamphlets and Posters’
Just more proof that those progressive nuts who claim that Elena Kagan is too conservative is nothing but total bulls*it and merely a smoke screen. Elena Kagan is the PERFECT nomination for progressive liberals and this regime. According to CNSNEWS, then Solicitor General Elena Kagan, told that court in September that Congress could constitutionally prohibit corporations from engaging in political speech such as publishing pamphlets that advocate the election or defeat of a candidate for federal office. Kagan’s argument that the government could prohibit political speech by corporations was rejected by a 5-4 majority of the Supreme Court in the case of Citizens United v. Federal Election Commission. Justice Anthony Kennedy wrote the majority opinion in that case, and in a scathing concurrence Chief Justice John Roberts took direct aim at Kagan’s argument that the government could ban political pamphlets.
Elena Kagan’s undergraduate thesis at Princeton lamented decline of socialism
Cozy with Goldman Sachs, anti-military AND a lover of socialism? Could Obama have picked a better nominee for SCOTUS to support his ideology? It’s sure doesn’t seem that way. According to WND, Kagan’s undergraduate thesis at Princeton, lamented the decline of socialism in the country as “sad” for those who still hope to “change America.” Titled “To the Final Conflict: Socialism in New York City, 1900-1933,” Kagan opined that infighting caused the decline of the early socialist movement. She asked why the “greatness” of socialism was not reemerging as a major political force.

U.S. Solicitor General Elena Kagan to be Obama’s nominee for Supreme Court to replace John Paul Stevens
News broke earlier today that Obama had decided on who his nomination for the Supreme Court would be to replace John Paul Stevens. No one knew who, but the speculation was that it would be U.S. Solicitor General Elena Kagan. So who do you think gets the story to confirm it is in fact Kagan? Why NBC of course! to serve as an associate justice on the U.S. Supreme Court, NBC News’ Pete Williams reported late Sunday night. Kagan is seen by some as a “moderate”, but not to me. Even some liberals don’t like her because of some of Kagan’s views on executive power and the treatment of terrorist detainees. For that, she is considered “too conservative”. This despite the fact Elena Kagan supported a long-standing policy barring military recruiters from campus at Harvard Law School. Somehow that’s too “conservative” for liberals. Kagan also becomes the first appointee in over 40 years with NO judicial experience. Regardless, she is likely to be confirmed easily.
Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens to retire in June
No surprise, but liberal Justice John Paul Stevens has finally decided that he will retire come June. The liberal Stevens, who was appointed to the Supreme Court under a Republican President (Gerald Ford) is 89 years old. This gives Obama another chance to appoint another radical progressive liberal to the Supreme Court, like Sonia Sotomayor. The only good thing about this with Stevens being a liberal, it wouldn’t change the balance of the Supreme Court. Early rumors have Obama nominating Solicitor General Elena Kagan, or Diane Wood. Fox News has more:
Janet Napolitano Would Step Down – When Obama Names Her to the Supreme Court
This story actually came out about two weeks ago, but we missed it. Thankfully NewsBusters picked up the story originally posted at National Review Online on December 15th. Chuck Todd, NBC’s official White House slurper was on the Laura Ingraham radio show and revealed something rather interesting. When Laura Ingraham asked Todd on her radio show which Cabinet official would leave next, Todd said it would be Janet Napolitano — so she can serve on the Supreme Court. Chuck Todd said this:
The wise Latina with the richness of her experience who could make better decisions than whitey aka La Raza Sotomayor confirmed to the Supreme Court
No surprise, one liberal replaces another. Congrats to you “wise latina woman” Sotomayor. Your richness and experience got you 68 votes Aye, and 31 nay.
Senate Judiciary Votes, 13-6, For La Raza Sotomayor
Can’t say this is really any surprise at all. However the only Republican who voted yes for La Raza Sotomayor was the pansy Lindsay Graham. Please South Carolina, next time this dirtbag is up for election, vote him out, along with Sanford!
Senator Jeff Sessions vows to vote against Sotomayor unlike pansy Lindsay Graham
Despite the fact La Raza Sotomayor will easily have enough votes to get confirmation to win the Supreme Court nominiation, especially with pansy Republicans like Lindsay Graham, who finds the racist Sotomayor “bold” or “edgy” Senator Jeff Sessions, the top Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, says he will vote against Judge Sonia Sotomayor’s confirmation to the Supreme Court in the committee vote scheduled for Tuesday according to the USA today.Hey South Carolina, not only can you vote out Mark Sanford next time he’s up for re-election, get rid of that slime Lindsay Graham while you’re at it!
Obama’s Racism Is Mirrored By His Nomination of Sotomayor
President Obama tipped his hand the other night when he called the Cambridge cops “stupid.” He is racist. He said he didn’t know the facts of the case, but said the white guy acted stupidly. This should give pause to anyone considering the appointment of Sotomsyor to the Supreme Court. Obama chose her because she mirrors his point of view on this extremely important topic. If Sotomayor is confirmed, expect outrage down the road when she repeats what she did to Ricci and the others.
