Could have swore I remember reading a statement from Kavanaugh on Roe V Wade as settled case law and no desire to relitigate every case.

This is just another leftist fear mongering talking point

Would be the death knell of the already moribund GOP. The socially liberal, fiscally conservative branch would break off from the socially conservative, wackadoo tea party base.

In fairness to the Tea Party, it didn't start out as a social conservative movement at all, but thanks to Palin and that crazy chick from Minnesota, it became one.

Truer words rarely spoken here. The original concept was about economic issues, and particularly the mortgage bailouts.

When CNBC Created the Tea Party

But as soon as it got legs the social conservatives hijacked it. The irony is they now rally around a guy that is not economically conservative (other than deregulation of his favored industries) and who is personally loathsome and an affront to all of their supposed moral tenets.

If such a strong majority of people supported killing babies on demand you wouldn't need Supreme Court justices to give it constitutional protection.

I don't really understand the whole b!tch about the nominee process. I didn't worry about Clinton's or Obama's picks, because I knew they would be liberals. "To the victor goes the spoils." That is what happens when you win an election, and get a pick or two.

... And the court has basically been conservative for 40 years anyway.

I haven't clicked on your link, but I'm betting it's the Rick Santelli rant that I watched live one morning while at work.

Where is the fiscally conservative branch of the gop? If one exists, they do a good job of hiding.
