Did you hurt your back twisting to make that narrative?

What does that have to do with Biden in 2006?

Nothing. In both cases, Republican presidents could have nominated her. Maybe Biden would have filibustered her. Maybe not. In either case, make your pick.

That's 4 chances at her. 4 shots at a qualified candidate. Neither president stood for her. Not sure how this is on Biden.

Nah, no smog in beautiful Florida. We get nice sea breezes that blow it all away...

I hear the smog is rough in Bejing... (Sorry, that was a cheap shot. Couldn't resist. Too easy. Hope you take it as a joke my Dem friend...)

Quash will never admit that the candidate is, by any reasonable standard, unfit for the seat she seeks.


Unfit? Make the case for her to unfitness.

She's been doing that herself since the hearings started.

Interesting you have not noticed, quash.


No. I asked you to make the case. Instead you went full Oldbear



Sit back, non-binary ret@rd, Uber driver, ponytail lawyer. Old bear hit the nail on the head. You haven't taken a stand since you learned to walk.


She would bring a welcome diversity of opinion as the first



Public defender on the high court.

Now, back to making the case for rejecting her nomination. Oldbear and Canon have fled the field. Anyone else?

May I ask what value her being a Public Defender brings to a Court with the following purpose?


"Article III, Section II of the Constitution establishes the jurisdiction (legal ability to hear a case) of the Supreme Court. The Court has original jurisdiction (a case is tried before the Court) over certain cases, e.g., suits between two or more states and/or cases involving ambassadors and other public ministers. The Court has appellate jurisdiction (the Court can hear the case on appeal) on almost any other case that involves a point of constitutional and/or federal law."

The criminal system is primarily the State system. So, if we were talking a State Supreme Court, I would fully agree and think she would make a good candidate, especially with her Public Defender background.

For the Supreme Court, with original jurisdiction of cases between States or involving ambassadors and other public ministers? Even the appellate jurisdiction involves constitutional or federal law. What percent of Federal Cases at the Supreme Court involve criminal? From what I can tell it comes down to a range of 2% to 14% of cases involve criminal.

So I ask you, is she the most qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice if her unique qualification at most will impact 14% of cases? Will she be over her head on the other 86%?

Nothing against her as a Justice, I might not agree with her positions, but she is a qualified, respected jurist. I just do not think that the Supreme Court is the right place for her. State Supreme Court, slam dunk. I actually think that is where she can do the most good.


SCOTUS rulings in criminal cases affects people all the time. It affects police interactions with citizens, who gets appointed counsel, etc. And stop in your local county courthouse or municipal court some day and see if your 17% figure holds. It won't.



You are making my case. County and Municipal are State courts. The State SC is where she is best qualified. US SC is not criminally based, Constitutional, inter-state. That is not her strength.
Criminal law is an important part of what SCOTUS does, including cases that come up from state supreme courts. When you talk about constitutional law, much of that is in the criminal area.
Check the numbers. You are correct that of what the States send to the SC it is mostly criminal. For the Roberts Court, 73% of the State cases sent to the SC are criminal related. So, what does that number represent of the SC's total work load???

But State cases reflect 10 to 20% of the SC typical work load. So, what is 73% of 20% = 14.6. I will give you the high end.

Does this mean there have never been more? No. Does it mean there will never be more? No.
All it means is if you are looking for the best qualified Jurist to be a SC Justice, criminal expertise is not what you look for. If you want to make a qualification fit, sure you can make Mr Magoo qualified, but not the best qualified.
Supreme Court justices need to have and do have a broad understanding of the law. There's no reason to assume she'd be out of her depth in other areas. Quash's point was simply that a public defender brings a different perspective and it's good to have a variety of backgrounds represented.
I did not say his position was wrong. I respected his opinion. I answered his question as to why someone would think she wasn't the best qualified. I gave my view, which it appears does not get the same respect as his and I have spent too much of my time defending why I don't think that Public Defense gives her any unique qualification. I even said where I thought her experience is best fitted. Why is it that is not enough?
I just think it's odd to say her place isn't on the Supreme Court because she has a criminal law background. She's been a federal judge for almost ten years and would have heard a variety of cases during that time. She also worked at a tort firm and clerked for Breyer and a 1st Circuit judge. I'm not really a fan of hers, but just saying.
"She would bring a welcome diversity of opinion as the first Public defender on the high court."

This is the Post I responded to and gave my opinion in regard to a Candidate that is using Public Defender status as a differentiator in selecting a SC Justice. I just don't think that it is a big enough part of the job to select her because of that experience over other Candidates with similar and superior experience in an area the Court does more of its work.
Well, look at it this way - she'd be less than 14 percent of the Court. Not every player is a kicker, but when you need them you need them.


So you do believe that being a public defender is special enough skill set to separate her from the others on the list. A lack of criminal experience has been an issue on the US SC?

Yes. Definitely.

Kavanaugh is average. Barrett is good so far but not enough at bats.

We are on the same page. I have been very impressed with Gorsuch. Barrett has impressed me as well. Kavanaugh, he is the face of killing college sports so I have a hard time liking him.

Heh, that was his best opinion so far. And I mean that seriously, not mockingly. People own their NIL.

I agree in theory, but the way it turned out in practice is horrible. Example:

Dating myself here, but

Charlie Ward, Tim Tebow, Ricky Williams, Hilliard, Fournette, Burrows, etc... All were so successful that their NIL became valuable and they should have been able to make money on the merchandise with their names and numbers associated with their performance. No issue.

In practice, has turned it into a recruiting tool so the same ones that exploited the greats by not paying them for their NIL are being rewarded by being able to buy players. Players that have not earned a thing in the industry that is paying them. I know the market allows for bad and risky investments. They are all saying how great it is that they do not have to cheat now!

But, that is not the spirit or the intent of trying to get players some money legally. I know legally, it is correct. But, it stinks (IMO).

Let's give it 5 years. In time, there will be kids who are busts and sponsors who overpaid. The Wild West of spending might continue or might become tempered.

We might even see some criminality that will create guidelines. 3 more years.

liberal judge replacing a liberal judge, not surprised coming from a democrat administration. Same thing from a republican administration.

Biden didn't do her any favors by saying that he would only consider a black female, but he couldn't help himself from pandering to the female identity group and the black identity group.

He would've come across more genuine and his pick more qualified if he kept his mouth shut and just nominated her. But in the end, like so many times before, he can't keep his mouth shut.

My understanding of protective class is you cannot discriminate against them for being a trans-sexual. Gorsuch is probably the most libertarian justice, I can see how he would take a live and let live view.

I look at it as you cant discriminate against women so therefore you can't discriminate against trans women and if you can't discriminate against women or trans women then you probably can't discriminate against trans men.

Private businesses should be able to hire who they want, when the what and how they want. Same goes for doing business with consumers.

As far as protected class, government or its entities shouldn't be allowed to discriminate, but private people and business should not have the same restriction. Let the free market decide.

If there was a business that discriminated against blacks, I would not patronize it, as would many Americans. Either that business will survive or not or change their ways.

To have a truly free country, unfortunately people should have the right to be *******s.

Kavanaugh the least memorable as a justice so far. Have high hopes for Barrett. Gorsuch is a judicial rockstar, may he be remember like Scalia when he retires from the court.


Gorsuch gave us all the 'Tra nnies are a protected class' ruling.
then maybe they are..

I trust his judgement and interpretation more than most on the court.
My understanding of protective class is you cannot discriminate against them for being a trans-sexual. Gorsuch is probably the most libertarian justice, I can see how he would take a live and let live view.
Libertarians would not have protected class. It would be let the free market decide.
You are correct, but I said he is the most Liberatarian Justice, I don't think he is Rand Paul all the way. I know he has Libertarian leanings, but not "full monty".

IMO, A Libertarian leaning would say it is up to the person to decide if they want to do that and it is no ones business, short of breaking their Constitutional protections. Seems consistent with his book.

Good day!
Curious, did you think Barrett, Gorsuch, or Kavanaugh were also good days?

Gorsuch for sure, better now that he's written a bunch of opinions. My favorite justice on this court.

Private businesses should be able to hire who they want, when the what and how they want. Same goes for doing business with consumers.

As far as protected class, government or its entities shouldn't be allowed to discriminate, but private people and business should not have the same restriction. Let the free market decide.

If there was a business that discriminated against blacks, I would not patronize it, as would many Americans. Either that business will survive or not or change their ways.

To have a truly free country, unfortunately people should have the right to be *******s.

liberal judge replacing a liberal judge, not surprised coming from a democrat administration. Same thing from a republican administration.

Biden didn't do her any favors by saying that he would only consider a black female, but he couldn't help himself from pandering to the female identity group and the black identity group.

He would've come across more genuine and his pick more qualified if he kept his mouth shut and just nominated her. But in the end, like so many times before, he can't keep his mouth shut.

That's true. It somewhat cheapens the pick. It's hard to make a huge deal out of the first black female anything when you only consider black females.

we replaced a liberal judge with a progressive judge....replacing a judge who would at least pay deference to the Constitution with one who will seek to redefine it wholesale.

Neither her record nor the hearings support that.

Her record certainly does.
