As predicted, Elena Kagan is sailing along in her Judiciary Committee hearings. She most likely will be confirmed with all Demo-Dope votes and more than handful of Reubil-Rat votes. She is sailing along by claiming that she cannot answer any serious question because that matter may come before the court at some point. Great. Why have a hearing then?
If the nominee can dodge every serious question simply by saying that the question cannot be answered because the matter may come before the court, what's the point? When a question of theory arises such as her support for the framer’s intent or her belief in living constitution, Kagan walked the fence caling herself an “originalist” while saying in the next breath that the founder’s knew the constitution didn’t cover everything for all ages.
Maybe they did maybe they didn’t. But they allowed that the constitution could be amended by a two thirds vote of the senate and the several states. That is what frustrates so many of us. The amendment process for the constitution has been thrown out by Libs who use a the judicial branch to create “rights” out of whole cloth – abortion – while denying all sorts of rights for certain people in other cases - gun rights, property rights, privacy rights when it comes to an obtrusive government, speech rights with regard to McCain Feingold etc. etc.
The amendment process to limit any of declared rights is too damn difficult for Libs. They cannot win on these issues with clear up or down votes so they don’t even try. They allow life time appointed judges do the dirty work for them. That is why Kagan was nominated by P-BO. Plain and simple, she is willing to subvert the constitution through the judiciary because they could never get the constitution amended the way they want through the legislative branch. If they tried to do it the way the framer’s intended, Demo-Dopes couldn’t hold 50 seats in the house.
