If I was a Republican I'd be proud of Jackson hearing

Does your post above in the quote box have a point relative to her nomination to the SC? Ketanji Jackson in that quote is asking a very specific question about pedophilia as a crime and whether in all cases obtaining child pornography fits as a crime of pedophilia. For example, dealing in media that includes child pornography is also a crime. Does that in all cases or in fact even in many cases mean the purveyor of such media is also a pedophiliac? The same applies to drug dealers who very very often do not themselves indulge in the drugs they sell. Does not make being a purveyor of such media is any less a crime.
Nice try but her quote is specifically on consumers of child pornography.


"mistakingly assumed that child pornography offenders are pedophiles” and she wanted “to understand this category of nonpedophiles who obtain child pornography.”
 
Their hands were kind of tied. He was replacing a black man. And it was an awfully long time ago when the party was quite different. But even then, they managed to find one who, while on the court, has alone ruled that a black man can be executed even though he was convicted by an all white jury.
Yes a long time ago and even then democrats attempted to personally destroy this black man.
 
The respect Republicans are treating this lady with stands in stark contrast to how democrats have been treating recent Republican presidential nominees. Questions have been based on policy and judicial decisions and have been tough but fair. No personal attacks, no unsubstantiated allegations no attempt to destroy her and her family. They truly are the adults in the room and are schooling democrats on how these hearings should be conducted. It's a pleasant change to not be embarrassed for my country watching this dignified proceeding.
I couldn't possibly agree more!!!!
I am very proud of the conduct of the Republicans and the differences between what we've seen, with Kavanaugh and even Barrett, are profound. I think that was their plan and good for them for sticking to it.
I'm also glad to see some tough questions being posed on her judicial stance and previous rulings. I hoped they wouldn't just completely blow off taking it seriously and doing their job. They certainly haven't.
Kudos to them!!!!!

What a ridiculous statement.
It may take decades for any Republican to conjure anything resembling pride after the years of fealty to one con man over party and country. You have to actually stand for something to feel any pride; Republicans have chosen one incompetent disgraced loser over all else. Brown Jackson doesn't have accusations of sexual assault hanging over her confirmation. And don't get me started on some of the ridiculous questions Trumpublicans managed to grunt out at the hearing. :rolleyes:

Purveryors of media depicting child pornography ARE OFFENDERS of the laws governing that sort of activity. In order to SELL media of that sort you must obtain it or create it.

You still don't get it do you?

LOL, damn, your trolling really sucks, this is pathetic.
 
The vote has not taken place yet .............. they will not support her they don't need a reason.

The public is getting duped. Koch put out the word he likes reverse psychology. IT's in play every day such as blaming democrats for crap the right wingers did another such as ======== COVID 19/Variants then followed with anti vaccine and masks. Then the crappy economy that Rump left behind. It's all choreographed.

Ukraine is Biden's fault too. What isn't Biden's fault?

Hey folks it's all about mid term elections.
Koch wants the bogus GOP party to appear respectful because he has spent so much money trying to over throw the USA government cuz he wants a military controlled government like China and Russia. He is the epitome of a facist pig unfortunately he is also quite a brilliant man. HOWEVER he could take his billions and
move to Russia or China ......... plus take Newt, DeJoy, Roger Stone and Bannon with him.

Lindsey Graham's questions were pretty funny:

"Sen. Graham asked Jackson what religion she practices and she answered, protestant ... but was clearly uncomfortable. Nonetheless, the senator persisted and asked, "On a scale of 1 to 10, how faithful would you say you are?"

Seriously?

I mean granted, this was more self-owning by Lindsey than any kind of disrespect toward Ketanji-Brown.

She is certainly treated better than the last Democratic nominee was.

HUH??? Your definition of respect is ENTIRELY different than mine!
 
You figure the traumatized girl made it up , do ya?
Yep. That's what the facts and evidence say.
I only wish a 'traumatized' girl would make up a story about ( a phony like) you. See how fast you'd change your ( liberal phony) tune!

No, the facts made clear that the girl and he had two different perspectives.
He was being a drinkin asshole who was terrorizing a young girl with realizing it.
It could not have been more plain or obvious... to the reasoned mind.

Tell me, do you ever believe a women?
Uh...one of the witnesses who denies the accusations leveled was a woman, lol.
 
You already replied to this, I countered. Speak to that post, if you can.
This was my first post in this thread. You must have me mixed up with someone else.

Nope.
Facts-> "Never happened" -all 4 witnesses.
 
As per the OP her decision was questioned not her character. You only confirm the OP with your post on it.
They wholeheartedly agree with the vile treatment DEm scuzzballs gave to REpub appointees.
 
Interesting how these Republican bigots put a black man on the Supreme Court. The same black man democrats attempted to personally destroy.
No, not quite right. Biden voted for him and kept witnesses from testifying for Hill. The Senate, both Repubs and Dems joined in trying to destroy Hill, not Thomas.
 
Nope. Partisan left wing perspective doesn't count.Only facts.
Facts-> "never happened'-all 4 witnesses.

🤡
Fact, he viewed it one way the girl viewed it another.
Hey, I never expected you'd understand "perspective" so it is what it is.
