If you're going to oppose someone based on entirely irrational religious bigotry, at least try to get the religion right. She's Jewish, not Catholic.
I am against Kagan because she is catholic. If she is confirmed we will have 6 catholic supremes. This scares me.
So we should prevent a nomination because of someone's faith? The Catholic justices weren't appointed because they were Catholic, they were appointed and happened to be Catholic. What scares me would be the government barring someone from a position because of their religion.
I've never heard of a supreme who was an atheist. What about their beliefs?
So your theory is that various presidents have considered appointing atheists to the court, but declined to do so because they were insufficiently religious?
I am against Kagan because she is catholic. If she is confirmed we will have 6 catholic supremes. This scares me.
So we are looking at an anti-military, gay, jew, with no direct experience getting nominated to the Supreme Court.
Is this the frigging Land of Opportunity, or what...???!!!

Before we get to over the top...
Being against a military policy is not anti-military. I am against DADT too.
There is to the best of my knowledge no proof she is gay, and a friend of hers has called her strait(or so it was reported on TV today). Her orientation is also entirely irrelevant.
Her religious beliefs are entirely irrelevant unless there is evidence they would effect her rulings.
She has about as much experience as roughly 1/3 of the justices in our history have had.
Do you have any problems with anything actually affecting her ability to do the job properly, or just hysterics?
Oh, I thought "she" was a man in drag. She is really a she - by birth?
Oh no, do we have another two years of people demanding to see her (or his) birth certificate?
No, they would probably want to see her sex organ.
now that would be some guys with some strong stomachs
Or, some horny sob.
probably Janet Reno and Donna Shalala will volunteer
He the leader of the conservative judicial movement? Where can I see their platform? Are there meetings and yearly dues? I don't recognize nor accept your assertion of some judicial conservative movement obviously.
Oh no, do we have another two years of people demanding to see her (or his) birth certificate?
No, I will admit that there is no formal encompassing conservative judicial movement, like a club with members and a treasurer and chairman. Your Brilliance has cowed me!! You've Got Me!! :roll:
If you haven't noticed yet, I don't give Scalia's opinion outside of the law any more credence than anyone else's opinion. What part of that is eluding you?If you need me to inform you about Scalia's position among Constitutional thinkers, his influence and the respect afforded to him ... well, it just says all that need be said, really. Unless you're just doing a really good job of playing dumb.
