Unbelievable you have zero mention of the Cavanaugh confirmation hearing in this article?? You mention Bork, but not a thing about the hatred and venom that was unloaded on an incredibly decent man by the left and the media? If you are going to beg for equality about the treatment of a nominee, call it both ways.
The liberals were not kind to Amy Coney Barrett either, but what they did to Kavanaugh was so ugly.
Does Daniels suggest this approach only for this appointee … or is this a “standard” to be applied to all appointees? Based on “all that changing” in 1987 with Bork’s nomination …, it sounds like Democrat Senators initiated the practice of politicizing nominees. Typical liberal approach …, invoke decency and civility when their candidates are up for consideration, and “all bets are off” when conservatives are under consideration. This has become a standard practice that many are beginning to see through.
A reminder that one the reasons given for throwing Dick Lugar out of office by Republicans was that he judged nominees on their qualifications.
Bork was involved in the Saturday Night Massacre (which IMO should have been permanently disqualifying for any federal judge appointment, but let’s keep it moving), supported the right for states to institute poll taxes, and said out loud he wanted to roll back civil rights laws. Bork still got two Democrats to vote for him and lost the votes of six Republicans senators. IMO Democrats might have politicized his flaws, but best I can tell, he wasn’t a good candidate.
Bork’s replacement – Kennedy, appointed by Reagan as well – was approved 97-0 by that same Senate.
If you want someone to blame, go with Mitch McConnell who blocked Obama from even trying to appoint any federal judges and refused to let those judges be judged on their merits. Meanwhile, after forcing this rule change, Mitch had no issues with appointing judges who’d never argued a case or taken a disposition… as long as they were ideologically pure.
Very well stated, Ms. Daniels. Thank you.
Ms. Daniels opinioned that Judge Jackson should be be subject to a dignified confirmation based on her qualifications and not her ideology.
Fair enough as long as she is not going to bring her ideology to the bench and fairly honor the US Constitution in a dignified manner as the Founding Fathers intended.
The expectation that a known judicial radical is going to the bench to have a blind eye to justice is not feasible. Therefore she must be scrutinized through her ideology lens.
Do you consider the Federalist Society a radically conservative group?
