    It's a trap!

    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      I saw that today. Did not read it (Newsmax, y’know), but how exactly would that work? I don’t want to have to wade thru all the ED potion ads.

            quota-based diversity

            Yes, another black justice will make 22% of the court black

            Only 12% of the country is black, 22% appears to be too many justices of color

            But wait, you are doing the wrong math. There have 114 Supremes, and only 2 black. There is a long way to go.

                              Wiki lists all the mock trials she participated in with the Shakespeare company and none of what she has heard in her 7 months at the appellate level.

                              I'm not saying she isn't qualified, but I haven't found much yet to say she is. To be continued.

                                She's been a stalwart Trump foe. That much I can find.

                                  Well, there's a qualification, to be sure.

                                  It'll be interesting, during confirmation hearings, to see if that comes up. SCOTUS is supposed to be above politics, right?

                                  RIGHT????
