Well according to the 'NO' party, Goodwin Liu is a left wing activist, who wrote openly about the need for the constitution to change accordingly with the change in society. He was never judge and  hes a associate dean of berkley's law school.

Obama's decisions so far should make right wing supporters burn like hell inside.

Do you think the gop'ers will use the filibuster tactic to block this nomination.

Considering the stuff Lie has said... they'll probably try.

 

“Judge Alito’s record envisions an America where police may shoot and kill an unarmed boy to stop him from running away with a stolen purse … where a black man may be sentenced to death by an all-white jury for killing a white man,”

Sounds more like a random forum poster than a supreme court judge.  His arguement is he'd be different as a judge because being a judge is differnet from being a professor.

To me... Supreme Court Justice isn't exactly a good "starter job" ofr a career.  I want people who have been judges to selected.

People who've been Federal judges for that matter.

Welcome to the new America, where the job of interpreting the constitution requires taking into account everything we have "learned" over the last 200 years.

Problem is, what we really are doing, is applying everything he have forgot over the last 200 years.

People are the same as they have been for 10's of thousands of years. We wrote that document just a few hundred years ago, to protect ourselves from people who think like this.

This mindset, is what's going to make this country fail. Not the other way around.
