Tucker Carlson Demands to See Ketanji Brown Jackson’s LSAT Scores

[Stringfellow Hawk]

231 years without a black woman on the court was not discrimination or racism. Putting one on is? Try logic.

show me in legislation where it states diversity is required on SCOTUS, that is the logic

 

[Stringfellow Hawk]

That is exactly what promising a woman's selection does. It disqualifies all the men.

they didn't do that, some men were considered early on

 

[BartenderElite]

So you wouldn't prefer a brilliant black woman over a not brilliant black woman?

Biden says she's brilliant. That meets your critieria, since per you, the President just has to say it.

 

[Walt]

We don't have any problem with a black woman. We just want to make sure we get a brilliant black woman. Hence the question about LSAT.

It is a matter of public record that Jackson graduated from Harvard with a magna cum laude, and Harvard Law School cum laude.

To put that into context, Kavanaugh graduated from Yale with the lessor cum laude honors, and Yale Law School with no honors whatsoever.

 

[ExpressLane]

It's a very embarrassing way to justify your partisan double-standard.

And Reagan didn't say "brilliant," btw.

When people are nominating a justice, that's kind of assumed.

So you are saying Sandra Day O'Connor wasn't brilliant.

 

[BartenderElite]

So you are saying Sandra Day O'Connor wasn't brilliant.

No.

I'm not saying that.

We want the cream of the crop to sit on the SCOTUS and a poor LSAT score would give a clue as to she is a winner or a loser.

Whether she's "a winner or a loser" as a judge is determined only by her record as a judge. A poor LSAT score no more detracts from a good judicial record than an excellent score would compensate for a poor judicial record.

Let see her LSAT exam score then. No problems right. She should have scored very high right?

 

[BartenderElite]

Not when Trump pick on the qualification of brilliance and not just skin color.

I'll walk you through this one, EL. With the post above, your only criteria is that the President says that the candidate is brilliant.

Biden said that Ketanji Brown Jackson is brilliant in his remarks about her. Per you, that meets the only criteria that we need for that.

So, we're all good.

 

[BartenderElite]

Let see her LSAT exam score then. No problems right. She should have scored very high right?

You're moving the goalpost. Previously, you inferred that we could take the President's word for it.

 

[BartenderElite]

Why do I get the feeling that pledging to nominate a woman is no problem for conservatives, but adding "black" to that creates all kinds of issues?

 

[Walt]

If she releases the LSAT scores, will you agree to support her?

 

[ExpressLane]

Whether she's "a winner or a loser" as a judge is determined only by her record as a judge. A poor LSAT score no more detracts from a good judicial record than an excellent score would compensate for a poor judicial record.

Ketanji has been reversed by the left-leaning D.C. Circuit multiple times. Her judicial record isn't very good. Certainly not the best the country has to offer.

 

[ExpressLane]

If she releases the LSAT scores, will you agree to support her?

Depends on her score. Would you agree that we need diversity on the court.

 

[Nordberg]

When Reagan said he would appoint a woman, that negated your response. That is doing it as clear as possible.
The point is that if you believe justice for all is your goal, then all people should have their experiences factored into decisions. A black woman, even an intelligent highly educated and experienced one, brings life experiences to the court that are not represented on the court now.
You are off the rails. You are driven by racism.

 

[BartenderElite]

The whole thing is silly. It assumes there is only one best qualified candidate for SCOTUS at any given time.

There are many. Narrowing the criteria like Reagan, Trump and Biden have is not in any way limiting in terms of quality & intelligence.

It is also racists because Tucker made no such demand for Amy’s LSAT.

Yep. It's pretty clear w/ Carlson's history why he's specifying it this time.

 

[Poor Richard Saunders]

So what were Amy Barrett's LSAT scores? How do you know she was a brilliant woman?

Amy Barrett only practiced law for 3 years and appears to have never argued a case in court.
Ketanji Brown practiced law for 9 years including arguing cases in front of appeals courts.

Notre Dame has an average LSAT that is 10 points lower than Harvard.
Notre Dame graduates pass the bar first time about 89% of the time. Harvard graduates pass it first time about 99%.
Harvard is listed as one of the top 2 law schools in the country. Notre Dame doesn't even make the top 25.

So.. what evidence do you have that Amy Coney Barrett is brilliant? It would appear she is likely be be less qualified based on her record than Kentanji Brown is.
