You seem to be very unwell.Republicans can **** off with these moronic projections. All they ****ing do is project. Amy Barret is a Christian taliban nutjob with very minimal experience and who was actually selected by dark money because her nutjob views on guns, just like Kavanaugh picked not for his judicial experience btu becuase he would be a right wing hack.
Yes, because she needs to explain what philosophy drives her to deviate so far from sentencing guidelines. Particularly in the case highlighted by Hawley where not only did she give a child predator only 3 months (sentencing guidelines say 97-110 months) but court records show she even apologized to the defendant and his family for even giving him that.Is making Brown out to be a protector of criminals when she is not really respectful?
Child molester and terrorist criminals, mindja, not just any old criminals.Is making Brown out to be a protector of criminals when she is not really respectful?
Maybe because Barret knew she was being pushed through in eight days, which though not illegal, certainly not ethical. Because of that she lost her right to concern for her. She could have said no and been seen as more than just a handmaid to he GOP.The famous "gonzo journalist" Hunter S. Thompson once said, "Politics is the art of controlling your environment." The confirmation hearing of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson is about to vividly show what Thompson meant. Less than two years after the abusive treatment of Justice Amy Coney Barrett, the Senate is holding a hearing that is dramatically different in the treatment of the Supreme Court nominee and the issues considered relevant to her confirmation.
For those with memories going back to 2020, there have been striking differences in how the news media haved covered Jackson's nomination in recent weeks. When Barrett was nominated, the media ran unrelenting attacks on her and her background. Nothing was viewed as out of bounds, from her religion to her personal life to fabricated theories of prior assurances on pending cases.
From the start of the Jackson hearing, this is clearly different in both optics and approaches. Barrett was surrounded by pictures of people relying on the Affordable Care Act, a framing to portray Barrett as threatening the very lives of sick people. It was all part of an absurd claim (fostered by liberal legal experts) that Barrett was appointed to kill the ACA.
I objected at the time that senators wereradically misconstruing the pending case and that Barrett was more likely to vote to preserve the ACA. (Barrett ultimately voted to preserve the act, as expected.)
Ketanji Brown Jackson getting the respect that Amy Coney Barrett was denied
Ketanji Brown Jackson's judicial philosophy is unclear and will be a key question at her Supreme Court confirmation hearings.www.usatoday.com

Very apt comparison between the Barrett and Jackson hearings.
Is making Brown out to be a protector of criminals when she is not really respectful?
do you ever post anything that rises about what appears to be grade school level bullshit? Your rants are so over the top that I think you might be posting as a POE. Kavanaugh has not proved to be a "a RW" nut job and he had 11 years on the second highest court of the land. Your childish bullshit is just thatRepublicans can **** off with these moronic projections. All they ****ing do is project. Amy Barret is a Christian taliban nutjob with very minimal experience and who was actually selected by dark money because her nutjob views on guns, abortion, discrimination, just like Kavanaugh picked not for his judicial experience btu becuase he would be a right wing hack.
He’s a constitutional law professor at Georgetown. Other than he may hold opinions that you don’t agree with, how is he a hack?By the way - Jonathan Turley is a hack.

Get back to us when the GOP starts slamming her with bogus/evidence-lacking sexual assault claims.Is making Brown out to be a protector of criminals when she is not really respectful?
He’s comparing the current confirmation hearing with the last one for a woman associate justice. Since there are some significant differences I think it’s valuable to see and acknowledge them.Because in my opinion he has become a political hack. His law degree is not relevant since he complaint here is not about the law - it's about him complaining about how ACB was treated.

I think we can all agree that Jackson is being treated significantly better than the last Democratic nominee was.
It gives him a much more in depth understanding of the issues, and as a constitutional law professor he’s going to be very interested in the confirmation process for a new Supreme Court associate justice.And your law degree is relevant when comparing the treatment of two different people in a confirmation hearing?

He talked about more than that. If you haven’t read his piece in the USA Today, it’s worth the time.Having a law degree does not give one much more depth in understanding "respect" and treatment of people, which is what he was grousing about.
I find it interesting that you complain about her, but do not complain when the judges in the January 6th insurrection cases give those convicted or that plead guilty a slap on the hand rather than the heavier sentences suggested by law or by the DA'sYes, because she needs to explain what philosophy drives her to deviate so far from sentencing guidelines.

Well let’s see..which is more egregious..raping children and uploading your recorded ravishings to the internet and having the judge apologize to you for sending you to jail or a light sentence for walking around the Capitol. Ooo that’s hard.I find it interesting that you complain about her, but do not complain when the judges in the January 6th insurrection cases give those convicted or that plead guilty a slap on the hand rather than the heavier sentences suggested by law or by the DA's
