Some of my friends in the pro-life movement desperately wanted a woman to be nominated for optics reasons. I don't know how much that really matters TBH."I am not angered that the Moral Majority boys campaign against abortion. I am angry when the same men who say, "Save OUR children" bellow "Build more and bigger bombers." That's right! Blast the children in other nations into eternity, or limbless misery as they lay crippled from "OUR" bombers! This does not jell." - Leonard Ravenhill

The nomination of Judge Brett Kavanaugh will threaten the lives of millions of Americans for decades to come and will morph our Supreme Court into a political arm of the right-wing Republican Party.

Originally posted by Cow Poke View PostIt seemed to me like some of the women on the left seemed particularly irked that a woman might be the nominee - like that's an extra stab-in-the-back, that a woman would betray her own. Yeah, weird!Originally posted by rogue06 View PostFor years liberals have been demanding that members of this or that group (whether racial, religious, ethnic or sex) must act in accordance to what they dictate or else they can not be consider a True (fill in the blank).
Case in point, back in 2005 lawyer, professor at the University of Southern California Law School, former Michael Dukakis presidential campaign chairman, and feminist activist Susan Estrich ranted against the Los Angeles Times for apparently not having a gender quota for editorial writers and revealed that to her a conservative woman’s opinion doesn’t count as a woman’s perspective.
Amidst her public tirades, Estrich blasted the Times for publishing an article by Charlotte Allen on the decline of female public intellectuals such as Susan Sontag (in which Allen argued that too many women writers today specialize in being female rather than addressing the broader range of issues covered by their male counterparts). After attacking Allen’s affiliation with the Independent Women’s Forum as being "a group of right-wing women who exist to get on TV," Estrich concluded her tirade with: "the voices of women… are [not] found within a thousand miles" of the "Los Angeles Times."
So in Estrich’s world, if a woman espouses a conservative point-of-view, she magically undergoes a sex change and is no longer qualified to represent a woman’s outlook. Later, in a radio interview, Estrich said that she found the running of Allen’s column "insulting."
So for the left you cannot be a True™ Woman if you're conservative -- but a man can if he dresses up as a woman and calls himself one.

I haven't been able to confirm it but on the way home tonight I heard that the group that organized the Women's March released their official statement on Kavanaugh's nomination but where his name should be was instead "xxx" indicating that the response was already written but forgot to fill in the name and it didn't matter who was nominated they were going to say the same thing about them.
Reminds me of this:

Originally posted by JimL View PostNot a winner yet, only been nominated.
I think Trump nominated him because Kavanaugh doesn't believe that a President should be subject to investigation or to be criminally indicted while in office. In other words, as usual, it's all about Trump.
Anyway, Kavanaugh apparently has a long paper trail and Democrats will now use that to drag this confirmation process on for a long time, possibly right on up to election time. Not a done deal!Enter the Church and wash away your sins. For here there is a hospital and not a court of law. Do not be ashamed to enter the Church; be ashamed when you sin, but not when you repent. – St. John Chrysostom
