Probably too conservative for my liking, but I do not have any doubt she is well qualified. House Dems should not delay and should be bargaining for whatever they can get in a final deal and get it passed in Congress immediately, before the election.

Meh. She's 87 years old and gets frustrated easily. Blame her on California.

seems pretty solid, certainly bright.
hopefully she will let Scalia's words guide her...(paraphrasing) being a good judge means sometimes not personally liking your decisions

Ya, you've got a point.

Barrett said, “Judges can’t just wake up one day and say I have an agenda — I like guns, I hate guns, I like abortion, I hate abortion — and walk in like a royal queen and impose their will on the world,”

That had to frustrate the Democrats right there, Darn it! What da mean you don't have an agenda??!🤣

Hirono hits Barrett for using the phrase "sexual preference" in an earlier answer.
"Sexual preference is an offensive and outdated term, it is used by anti-LGBTQ activists to suggest that sexual orientation is a choice -- it is not," she says.

Hirono asks Barrett: "Since you became a legal adult, have you ever made unwanted requests for sexual favors or committed any verbal or physical harassment of a sexual nature."

I was waiting for the Rapist Card to get played. What if she was a rapist before she was a legal adult? Seems like a loophole in the question.

nothing left to do, except watch the votes for shoving Barrett up the chute...

Dems are paying the price for incompetently losing the last POTUS election...


but cons may have set a bad precedent that could come back to haunt them in the future
