    Strong Second Amendment. Very strong.

      Last night I watched an interview with her. It was OK, she seemed like a smart enough person. But, and just my opinion of course, she didn't seem to have the gravitas of someone being considered. Maybe it was her young sounding voice, or "average" vocabulary.
      If I were on a committee, after listening to her field questions, I think I would have asked for more candidates for consideration.

        It says what it says and does not say what it doesn't.

            She's very young. In her 40's, IIRC.

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

                      "In January 2018, I tweeted the cover story of the National Law Journal. It was titled The Great Reshaping: How the Trump Administration is Changing the Game on Judicial Nominations. And it depicted portraits of then-Justice Gorsuch, and Judges Kavanaugh, Barrett, and Willett. So far, these predictions are looking good. I'm still holding out for Justice Willett."

                            Exactly. I would be more upset about what happened in 2016 than now.

                            Seems like the are following the rules in this case, maybe not so much in 2016. Doesn't matter , however, that is over and done in the past.

                                Last night, Bill Maher said that ACB is really, really Catholic.

                                Strange that the didn't comment that Elena Kagan is really, really, Jewish, isn't it?
