There is, after all, Justice, though it was a near thing in a great many ways. I am reminded of the ancient Chinese curse: “may you live in interesting times.” That we do; that we do.
But for the moment, enjoy this press release from the Supreme Court:
One final note: Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg has admitted she was at least somewhat drunk during her appearance at the last State of the Union Address:
I vowed this year just sparkling water — stay away from the wine — but the dinner was so delicious it needed wine,’ she said, speaking about a dinner party beforehand to which Justice Anthony Kennedy brought ‘very fine California wine.
I’m sure, in light of this revelation, congressional Democrats will immediately demand her retirement due to her admitted lack of judicial temperament. There is, after all, precedence. Ginsberg, who is 85, should be commended for her service, but perhaps she, and the nation, would be well served if such a reckless alcoholic–surely she has thrown ice?– had more time for sampling fine California wines–Hillary Clinton has established precedence there as well–and thereafter, for restful sleep. After all, we must believe the women.
Schadenfreude.
I was republican because of Ronald Reagan. I was Conservative because of what was done to Clarence Thomas. I’ve been radicalized by the Left over the course of the last 10 years. Now, I watch.
The AP reported, regarding Lisa Murkowski, “The Alaska Republican was laying out her reasons late Friday for opposing Kavanaugh, a decision she called “agonizing.”
She said she was “truly leaning” toward confirming the judge. But after watching his testimony, she could not in her conscience conclude “that he is the right person” for the court at this time.”
So if you believe her, after hearing only the “victim’s” testimony, she was leaning toward confirmation and it was only after Kavanaugh’s testimony, that she decided not to. Thus, she must not have believed Dr. Ford. If she didn’t believe Dr. Ford, why wouldn’t she have been sympathetic to his fiery denial and perhaps give him the benefit of the doubt on his temperament under that situation, especially taking into consideration his stellar temperament as displayed for 12 years as an appeals court judge?
I know. It is silly to try to ascribe reason to a liberal.
Dear Allyn:
Perhaps Alaskans will correct their error at the next opportunity.
