MEANWHILE, A DNC STAFFER ASKS THE PRINTER FOR A REFUND
The Judge has top-of-the-line credentials—he graduated from Yale University and Yale Law School where he was Notes Editor of the Yale Law Journal; he’s also been a longtime instructor at Harvard Law School in courses on the Supreme Court and the Separation of Powers.
Judge Kavanaugh has been guided by principle and conviction even when it means his approach will differ from the status quo.
On a number of occasions Judge Kavanaugh has dissented from panel opinions that are joined even by his conservative colleagues, to take positions that are more in line with the statutory or constitutional text.
Judge Kavanaugh’s dissenting opinions at the D.C. Circuit repeatedly have turned into majority opinions at the Court, revealing not only a jurist who has the toughness to take positions divergent from those of his peers but a jurist who has the power to persuade, effecting longterm change.
Even during this era of generous judicial deference to administrative agencies, Judge Kavanaugh has written 40 opinions finding agency action to be unlawful and joined majority opinions reversing agency action in at least 35 additional cases.
I think Judge Kavanaugh’s toughness to stand with his own convictions derives from a deeply rooted interpretive philosophy built on interpreting law in accordance with the statutory text and the meaning of the text of the Constitution.

Judge Kavanaugh has delivered numerous speeches expositing his principles and has fleshed out his interpretive philosophy in a number of publications, including the Harvard Law Review and the Notre Dame Law Review.
He’s also published work in the Yale Law Journal, the Georgetown Law Journal, the Wall Street Journal, and the Washington Post, among other publications.
One of the clearest windows into what drives Judge Kavanaugh as a jurist came during his speech at the Antonin Scalia Law School. He spoke of Justice Scalia as a role model, praising his courage to stand up to pressure from all sides and interpret the law as it is written.
"What did Justice Scalia stand for as a judge? It’s not complicated, but it is profound and worth repeating often. The judge’s job is to interpret the law, not to make the law or make policy.."

Like Elena Kagan, grandpa Andrew?
Kagan was born and raised in New York City. After attending Princeton University, Worcester College, Oxford and Harvard Law School, she completed federal Court of Appeals and Supreme Court clerkships.

Just want him to know that if he makes any sort of radical rulings that dramatically alter or reduce civil rights in the United States, we are going to pack.

It's said that even a broken clock is right twice a day.
Legion is absolutely right.
I not only hate that son of a bitch nominee but also the troglodyte who nominated him and pretty much everybody who doesn't hate the both of them as well.
Karl Rove finds judge Kavanaugh a near perfect pick, a sentiment shared by George W. and Dick Cheney.
President Trump has certainly secured the support of Susan Collins and John McCain with this pick.
LIFE COMES @ YOU FAST, LIBERALS. DEATH IS PRETTY QUICK, TOO
YES, THAT IS LITTLE ELIAN IN HIS UNCLE'S HOME
Six-year-old Elian Gonzalez was safe in the arms of Donato Dalrymple, one of the fishermen who rescued him from the ocean, as federal marshals stormed into his family's home, weapons drawn, to forcibly return the boy to Cuba.
Elian recounts the moment those agents entered. “When I saw a person with a weapon. I got scared. I didn't understand what they wanted with me, didn't know what was going on,” he recalled. Gonzalez was found floating off of Florida's coast in 1999, after the boat he was in with his mother capsized and she drowned.
Consumed by grief for his dead mother, who sacrificed her life to give him a chance for freedom, Gonzalez stayed with his uncle in Miami until DEMOCRAT Blowjob Bill ordered agents to tear him away from his family at gunpoint.
