He's just going after bigger fish, having bagged your a$$ so easily yesterday.

My take is Obama nominated him so as to get him passed and have quite the legacy of judges appointed. He wanted to do it not Hillary. Hillary would have picked someone else and probably a woman.

So after pining his great candidacy for almost a year, it would be a pretty bad look for the DNC to then change their nomination. Unless the Dems won a majority of the senate too, which is a pretty big if...

PM, generally, I can look at situations free from my personal beliefs. That includes anything Cubs/Sox and certainly political matters. I have firm opinions on most subjects, but I can spot the BS of the politicians a mile away. I don't carry the Republicans' water. In fact, they barely stand for anything these days. Free markets, fiscal prudence, and limited government have long since passed from their belief system.

This is what I was talking about. Not only is Gorsuch corrupt, he's a weasel, too.

What a load of horseshit.

That's a terrible column.

I lost? No, the country and the justice system lost. Our democratic system lost.

Gorsuch can't comment on the constitutionality of the treatment of the candidate before him getting stiffed, when he's up for the Supreme Court?? That's exactly what he would be doing, ruling on constitutional cases!!!

The fact that he didn't answer shows how much of weasel he is. Just like the questioning about the truck driver case that he couldn't answer either.

You lost you lost you lost you lost.

Cases which have been litigated on a set of facts. There is no such case or complaint brought by the cadidate before him.



The guy is literally on a job interview, and one group of management reps is busting his balls about how another group of management reps treated the last guy to interview. Not taking that bait doesn't make him a weasel, but trying so hard to paint him as anything other than an incredibly competent, even brilliant, jurist is just pathetic.

And you can cling to that truck case until your fingers turn white, but it's not going to change the fact that all he did was advocate refusal to coax special or unordinary meanings out of the text of law because the facts of a case tug at our emotions...IN A DISSENT, YOU TOOL.

The law prohibiting firing an at will employee for refusal to operate a vehicle they believe to be unsafe hinges on the term "operate", which in its ordinary meaning does not include simply "sit inside of". In order to come to the conclusion that the company unlawfully terminated his employment, we would have to arbitrarily expand the meaning of the term "operate".

that I can appreciate
