Playing Games with Justice

YOU MIGHT RECALL, you should recall that when Barack Obama had one year remaining in his second term, he nominated a political moderate, and a highly qualified magistrate with a strong history of rendering equal justice under law, to the Supreme Court to replace the recently deceased Antonin Scalia. Justice Garland should have confirmed immediately, no doubt. Instead, the Republican Senate majority refused to even consider the nomination, ostensibly because Obama had but a year remaining in office, and the American people deserved the opportunity to choose their new justice by choosing their next president, in actuality because they gambled that the next president would be a republican, and would appoint a right wing justice to match their right wing agenda/. pure perfidy, and a refusal to perform their constitutional responsibility to advise and consent. regrettably, neither the Democrats, Obama, nor we the American people raised sufficient stink about the nefarious behavior to reverse it. The gambit worked. right winger Neil Gorsuch took the seat intended for Merrick Garland, and the right wing was happy, happy apparently with their illegal behavior. During Gorsuch's nomination process, nary a single woman came forth to accuse him of improper conduct, most likely because he has never engaged in any. Strange, how good behavior results in a lack of criminal accusations against you. it seems unlikely the the Democrats, the media, or anybody else is fabricating the accusations against Brett Kavanaugh being registered by professor Ford; women are extremely reluctant to make such accusations when they are true, its nearly impossible to get them to do so when they are fabricated for political or judicial purposes, contrary to conspiracy theorists. the burden of proof is on Kavanaugh and those who intend to vote for his confirmation that he is not a sexual predator. This is not a court of law, it is a judicial confirmation process. Clarence Thomas should not have been placed on the high courts twenty six years ago, and Kavanaugh should be denied now. Neil Gorsuch proves that is is easy to find people for the court who are not sexual predators, have never been accused of it, have never done it. If Kavanaugh is in fact rejected, which according to the basic laws of morality and judicial process he should be, how long will it take for Trump to send up another nominee? What about letting we the American people choose the next Supreme Court member, by waiting until after the midterm elections, and until after the new Congress is installed in January. Letting the American people choose their Supreme Court justices is, after all, of supreme importance to Republicans and their conservative constituents. If they do not stop kavanaugh, and wait for the next Congress to replace him, the conservative community and their elected representatives will have proven two things; that they are highly immoral, and place political ideology over high standards of jurisprudence, and that they are hypocrites, lacking any vestige of decency or integrity.
