Why the heck are people still calling Coney-Barrett a "conservative" justice?

Whatever one thinks of ACB’s record as a justice , can we all agree that probably conservatives should not do DEI either ?

“I will be putting forth a nominee next week. It will be a woman,” Trump said. “I think it should be a woman because I actually like women much more than men.”

She follows the law.

Something false in what I posted? I wish it were so

It’s all relative. Someone closer to the middle of the political spectrum than you, would probably see the court as two far left, two fairly neutral and five consecutives.

" …eat their own…" ??? :roll_eyes:
WHERE have you been the last 4 y???

If saying ‘Ooooops…there is one rotten apple in the bushel’ is ‘eating your own’ then Biden reising the cost of living and lowering the cost of life is … :thinking:
TREASON. :angry:

:rofl: :laughing: :rofl:

President Trump says “hold my diet Coke”.

Well, actually, she doesn’t. But she’s more of a Sandra Day O’Connor than people expected.

But to answer this question:

She’s not Ruth Bader Gisnburg. And I’d rather have her there than Merrick Garland or someone of that ilk.

She’s a not-lib. Just be thankful for that. It’s not gonna change, and it could have been way worse.

Trump is eating your lunch right now, dear.

Probably not. I doubt he’s much of a lasagna fan.

Could have been way better too.

I’m hugely disappointed in her myself.

I was way disappointed in O’Conner as well.

Maybe we should steer away from conservative Women justices?

They seem to have a way of drifting away from being conservative once they land on the high court.

Justices have no obligation to be ideological. In fact, they should not be. Their obligation is to the Law and the Constitution. Both Barrett and O’Connor fit that bill.

Great post

Agree 100%. Great post.

Is it not self-evident that a Supreme Court Justices’ opinion is not legitimate when it defies the text of our Constitution, and its documented legislative intent, which gives context to its text?

As I said many times…
Women have no gutts to stay the course.
They’re too emotional for a serious business.
Look around. Who disapoints you easily.

I wonder if maybe she got intimidated by the liberal left.

Incidents like the guy who went to Kavenaugh’s house with the intent to do harm?

If they can’t handle that sort of thing they don’t belong on the high court.

Kavenaugh didn’t let it intimidate him.

Women like M. Thacher and Golda Mayer are rare gems.
I know most of folks here will hate me for this but I DO NOT trust women in high places.

It is refreshing, tho, seeing now all those bright smart women in Trump’s cabinet so maybe my fate in them handling serious stuff will change. :thinking:
I sure hope so.
So far they’re doing great.
