Can't be Partisan and be a Supreme Court Justice

We already know what Ginsburg thinks of the president. She told us more than a year ago that she "can't imagine what the country would be . . . with Donald Trump as our president." Facing criticism for her apparent endorsement of Hillary Clinton and her attacks on Trump, Ginsburg doubled down, emphasizing in a CNN interview: "He is a faker." She then went on "point by point, as if presenting a legal brief," the CNN analyst said.

Still, the Code of Conduct for U.S. judges states that a judge shall not "make speeches for a political organization or candidate, or publicly endorse or oppose a candidate for public office," and it sure looks like Ginsburg violated that provision. The code also insists that judges avoid "impropriety and the appearance of impropriety in all activities." Technically, the code does not apply to the Supreme Court, but Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. has assured us that he and his fellow justices follow it.

Opinion | Justice Ginsburg has some explaining to do

"He is a faker," she said of the presumptive Republican presidential nominee, going point by point, as if presenting a legal brief. "He has no consistency about him. He says whatever comes into his head at the moment. He really has an ego. ... How has he gotten away with not turning over his tax returns? The press seems to be very gentle with him on that."

Acknowledging her own age and that Justices Anthony Kennedy and Stephen Breyer will turn 80 and 78, respectively, Ginsburg said of the possible next president: "She is bound to have a few appointments (to the Supreme Court) in her term."

You were saying democrats?

Wouldn't it be nice if justices were appointed in a non-partisan manner too?

If you appoint them in a partisan manner, they will be partisan. The Supreme Court is so partisan it's ridiculous.
Be even nicer if they followed the US Constitution

Well they would if there were less partisan nonsense going on, and appointments were made in a non-partisan manner.


when has that ever been the case? Were Sotomayor and Kagan non partisan? duh, no.


Those two broads appointed by Obama, both got plenty of GOP votes.

And if Hillary Clinton would have won the 2016 election, Merrick Garland would have undoubtably been confirmed in the Lame Duck Session at the end of 2016.

My only question is how, with all that, you can possibly support Kavanaugh, after what he said on Thursday.
Or maybe you don't.

Ginsburg opposed Trump. She didn't endorse anyone. You don't understand the difference?

She PUBLICLY opposed Trump and referred to the next president as "she". How dull do you have to be in order to pretend that doesn't amount to an endorsement?
 
Maybe we should start holding our politicians accountable for everything they’ve done when they were kids. We should also start accusing them of being sexual predators whenever someone makes that accusation
.

And alcoholics. That seems to be a popular charge right about now. There's a certain senator connected to a powerful political family who would have never been elected, much less stayed elected as long as he wanted to, had those two standards been in place. Of course, given the way democrats work, the "Ted Kennedy exception" would have been hastily written and applied.

Kav exposed himself as a partisan when he called this a hit job. He’s going to vote hard right forever.

I'm sure his past judicial decisions will reflect that. Can you find some, or are you just insisting that he will?
 
You dumb shit: a JOB INTERVIEW is NOT about innocent, nor guilty.

A job interview is about getting the best candidate that is TRUTHFUL.

God; you people are fvcking dumb.

We're dumb? A job interview does not require a Senate hearing. So yes it is about being innocent or guilty. That's why there was a Senate hearing.

However even it it was what you said, a job interview. You believe that during this "job interview" a person is guilty until proven innocent? Just come out and say it. It's all I ask. You believe that somebody making an unsubstantiated claim should have the ability to ruin an innocent persons life.

There is no way a job interview will ruin an innocent persons life.

They may, or may not get the job but gemme a break with the drama, please.

His life is ruined even if he gets confirmed. Such an allegation will be over his head for many years to come. Any ruling he makes against the liberal agenda will resurface this claim in the media. For crying out loud, your people won't even let ours eat in a restaurant in peace just because they hold an anti-Communist position.

Sorry Bubba but I DON'T HAVE any of "your people"

I haven't voted for a major party candidate for POTUS in nearly four decades.

That is the whole goddamn problem with this fucked up nation.

Nearly everyone believes they only have one of two choices; NOT me.

So, take your "your people" and stuff it 'cause I aint got any.

so you make it a habit of wasting your vote, How brilliant.

The Democrats & the Republicans run a racquet; it's called a ONE party system feigning as a two party system. Of course, folks like you are stupid enuff to fall for this shit.

Look where that has gotten our nation; take one subject, for example. $21 trillion in debt.

Who offered US that? The Democrats & the Republicans, both.

Keep voting for that & keep wasting YOUR vote while you & all your other voting buddies keep telling me that you all are still voting for "the lesser of two evils"

Well guess what; I am actually voting for a candidate; NOT against one.

We all should remember that when the average lefty wants something "non-partisan", that means they want you to agree with them.

Correct, Sotomayor and Kagan received many republican votes. The reason for that is not because the republicans agree with them, but because the republicans acknowledged they were qualified. The republicans are honorable. The democrats are spoiled little brats.

Nothing wrong with what Judge Kavanaugh told the committee on Thursday.

I would have been a lot less conciliatory to the Leftist Turds trying to destroy his reputation and his family. But Kav is his own man.
 
Can't be a 'beer' drunk, stumbling around, forgetting shit, raping 15 year olds, and be a SCOTUS justice.

Oh; this is America. I guess you CAN!!!

I'm glad that's not happening. That would be bad, going after minors like that.
 
Oh, poor U.

C this thread? Have You EVER LIED on a Job Application, In a Job Interview, On your Resume?

Well, did U lie for your job?

A job interview does NOT come with 'due process' boi.

So why don't you just come out and say it? You leftists don't believe a person is innocent until proven guilty. You believe an American is guilty until proven innocent outside of a court hearing. At least you would be honest that way.


You dumb shit: a JOB INTERVIEW is NOT about innocent, nor guilty.

It doesn't matter. Whoever controls the SCOTUS controls the direction of
the country.

If Trump can be reelected he'll leave the court 7-2 and it'll be a conservative
court for the next 40 years.

Nobody will give a shit whether he fondled some homely bitch when he was
17. They'll blame it on the beer, that he didn't have better taste.

Did Kavanaugh forget what parties he went to, who got him there, who drove him home, how he called for a ride?

Yes, this is America, and in America, you are innocent until proven guilty. In leftist America, you are guilty until proven innocent. That's why America has turned on you and will turn even more down the road. We don't want to have a justice system similar to North Korea or Cuba. That's what Democrats want.


Kavanaugh was NOT in a 'court of law' so, your shitty 'due process' argument is moot.

Kavanaugh IS experiencing a 'job interview.'

Have you ever had the opportunity for 'due process' in a job interview?

Yeah, right.

And what job interview should involve an FBI investigation? This was a hearing--not a job interview. And in a Senate hearing, you are sworn to tell the truth and nothing but the truth. I've never been to a job interview where I had to do that. Furthermore innocent until proven guilty is the American way and has been since the founding of this country. But we all know how anti-American way the left is.


Oh, poor U.

C this thread? Have You EVER LIED on a Job Application, In a Job Interview, On your Resume?

Well, did U lie for your job?

A job interview does NOT come with 'due process' boi.

Nor does it come with swearing an oath under penalty of legal prosecution. Heck, I've had to get a security clearance for a job, and the worst that could happen would be losing the job if something was wrong. Next feeble attempt.
 
The Democrats & the Republicans run a racquet; it's called a ONE party system feigning as a two party system. Of course, folks like you are stupid enuff to fall for this shit.

The only people trying for a one-party system are the Democrats. Why do you suppose they are trying to flood this country with foreigners?

Only if the Republicans win the Senate.

Otherwise, the vacancies won't be filled

Kavanaugh was attacked by a group of highly partisan democrats. He had every right to defend himself and point out the attacks.
