Here We Go Again

It looks like Elena Kagan just may be Obama's choice for SCOTUS. Get ready for more sexism and shouts of "activist radical" from conservatives.

Look for President Obama to name his Supreme Court pick Monday, and look for it to be Solicitor General Elena Kagan, a former Harvard Law dean. The pick isn’t official, but top White House aides will be shocked if it’s otherwise. Kagan’s relative youth (50) is a huge asset for the lifetime post. And President Obama considers her to be a persuasive, fearless advocate who would serve as an intellectual counterweight to Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Scalia, and could lure swing Justice Kennedy into some coalitions The West Wing may leak the pick to AP’s Ben Feller on the later side Sunday, then confirm it for others for morning editions. For now, aides say POTUS hasn’t decided, to their knowledge.


It's almost a guarantee that Fox"News" producers for Beck's and Hannity's program are working overtime to try and find anything "suspicious" in Kagan's past. Back in April, he was endorsed by Bill Kristol even though he followed that up with a call for the GOP to oppose her "just because they can".

It's no secret that she thinks that confirmation process is pretty much pointless, and these comments will likely be thrown back at her.

Not to get overly speculative, but if it is Kagan, I'm fully prepared for the onslaught of conspiracy that will most certainly come from Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh. It seems that those two are vying for the "craziest wingnut on the planet" award.
