That Was The Week That Was.

Another week of unpopular decisions, associated protests by the populace and, at last, some good news (in part) from the Gulf. Elena Kagan Elena Kagan was confirmed by the Senate on Thursday, following a 63-37 vote in favor. Ms Kagan is to be sworn in as the country’s 112th Justice later today. Regardless of her political stance, it is incredible that so many Senators could | Read More »
Republicans Had Best Have A Compelling Message.

Despite the DeMarxists headlong rush to oblivion in November, we cannot count on our Republican leadership not to blow it. They need to show something that has been sadly missing thus far, in my opinion… leadership. To date, they’ve failed in the first big test of whether they have the intestinal fortitude to be the majority in 2011. Elena Kagan should have been stonewalled out | Read More »
We Don’t Want Kagan! Republican Senators, Who Are You Working For?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | July 2nd at 12:01 PM |
You’d think that, after the millions and millions of telephone calls, letters, emails, faxes, personal visits to local and beltway offices… you’d think that after witnessing the millions upon millions of Americans taking their time and using their own rapidly diminishing personal treasure in literally tens of thousands of meetings across the country and in Washington DC, that the so-called Republican leadership would have gotten | Read More »
Kagan Nomination Should Be Filibustered – Republicans, No Guts?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | June 29th at 12:11 PM |

Statements like “It’s fine if the law bans books because government won’t really enforce it” are stunning, with implications in several different directions. For one, it | Read More »
Obama Running Interference For Kagan?
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | June 4th at 08:40 AM |
We haven’t heard much from Barack Obama’s Supreme Court nominee, Elena Kagan. It’s almost like they told her to burrow down and stay out of site. Up until now we didn’t know a heck of a lot about what she did think about key issues and constitutional questions. All we had was the canned tripe put out by the White House via the lame stream | Read More »

By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | May 18th at 10:21 AM |
The moderates in the US Senate are poised to roll over on the nomination of Elena Kagan. This is a prime example of the changes that are going to have to be made in order for the Republican party to prosper and grow into this century. Announcing to all and sundry that Ms. Kagan’s confirmation is as good as a done deal was not the | Read More »
Judicial Lightweight.
By: Skip MacLure (Diary) | May 11th at 12:46 PM |
She’s a college buddy of Obama’s. Her name is Elena Kagan. Her portfolio is as empty as Obama’s own. She has never tried a case in front of any court. She has written no legal briefs or opinions. She has never tried a case, either as council or as a judge. She has no qualification to sit on the highest court in the land. She’s | Read More »
