very few personal issues, plenty of judical record fights

that's how it normally goes, it doesnt make the news because there is no 'man bites dog' story there

SC is a different thing

exactly, that's why the standards should be even higher

that was a blatant attempt to block a conservative judge

all it was

throwing somebody out of contention sohuld be a non issue

there are thousands of conservative judges

you just find another one

they aren't going to say every one is a rapist

again, see McConnell's judge placement

right, but if I remember correctly, there was some issue with timing that would have prevented another judge from being picked

Thats just it though. If they can and get away with it whats to stop them?

it would just embolden the evil fucks

then you wait, it's a bigger issue because obviously women's issues will come up

I guess fuck due process right

@Dick'em_DOWN_Dan most judicial appointments have zero personal shit just judicial review

this is due process, there is nothing wrong with pulling a guy

you are the world's biggest contrarian, but that's probably why I keep talking to you

there was nothing special about Kavanaugh, you just find another judge, there is a long list already anyway

If we quit allowing these people to ruin our country maybe we'd be better off.

Hitchens died so you get the title

I don't think this is a contrarian stance, IME, this is how it usually works

if you aren't squeaky clean, you get pulled

that's how military works

or whatever the requirements are, people got cashiered for anything

but if all you ahve to do is make up a story with ZERO evidence, then nobody is squeaky clean

yea but that's not really what happens in 99% of the cases

lol

usually you get fights about their judicial stance

Right. Just asking for trouble knowingly having dirt and still running. Shooting themselves in the foot before the race even starts lol

some people think it doesn't matter, depends on what you are used to

if your story is as full of holes as hers was, then yeah, fuck you

Guess it truly depends on the dirt huh lol

contarst my experience with qwasis. I'm more use to a gov process where if you aren't perfect, you dont get the job

there is often no debate, you are just gone, and most times you dont even know it

i expect supreme court justice to go through something at least similar to that

Governments way lf saving time and face lol

but if you can just make up a story about anyone and not provide any evidence that your story is true then it will be abused

same reason why I voted for mcmullin over trump

I know what it takes to get a security clearance, so I want AT LEAST that level of scruntiny on somebody
