She was in appeals court before, right?Because she has only been a judge for about 5 minutes before being made a supreme court judge perhaps? It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic.

In 50 years this night will looked back on as one of significancewell, she has been confirmed
For only 2 years and she was only nominated for that due to Trump lining her up for this gig. She wasn't experienced enough for either appointment but especially not this latest appointment. Not that you would expect anything less from this shit show of an administration.She was in appeals court before, right?

This is my point. The majority of Americans believe her confirmation should have waited. Maybe it won't matter, but it's definitely a weird scenario.I’m not so sure about that. If she becomes the catalyst for the expansion of the SC then this sham of a confirmation will live on for quite a while.
With her confirmation conservatives will have a 2/3’a majority in a country that is at best 50/50, but closer to 60/40 in the other direction. This leads to a court that is not in mind with the beliefs of the country.
Really hope so too. Need to win to have that discussion though.Hopefully the dems aren't soft cocks and pack the courts on these cnuts.
Did not know this. Imagine how every other judge that has served multiple years, even decades must feel seeing a partisan hack getting a SCOTUS gig inside three years judgeship. Dems must stack the courts when they gain full control again.For only 2 years and she was only nominated for that due to Trump lining her up for this gig.

Change the laws on them after. Thats what the Rs would do.if the democrats do that, then the republicans will do the same next time they win an election or have a senate majority
I’m pretty sure my wife has that outfit.
Hyperbole much? As an atheist in America, I would say I feel like we are far from a extremist religious nation. We still suffer from many of the same things that many nations do (things like "religion = good" and nonsense like that) but, by and large, religion is generally not a major factor in most peoples lives here. I don't like the trend in our politics but the great thing is that our system generally self corrects eventually.USA is a land of religious extremism, nepotism in politics, inequality and white power. Amy Coney Barrett will do a great job in relevance to that.

I had somewhat similar opinions as Snow when I used to live in Europe but I agree it is hyperbole.Hyperbole much?

She obviously will, given her background.I hope she proves you all wrong and doesn't overturn any of the historic precedents
Fair point. In Maryland, religion is something a few do on Sunday morning but that's about it. I imagine in the South, it's a different story.Maybe where you live...
It's ingrained in your culture and politics. It plays a huge role. You just put an inexperienced person into one of the highest offices for life based mostly on religion.Hyperbole much?

It’s very different. When meeting someone, where you go to church is typically in the first 3 questions you’re asked.Fair point. In Maryland, religion is something a few do on Sunday morning but that's about it. I imagine in the South, it's a different story.
Good grief. Not sure how I would respond to that without sounding rude. It seems like such a rude question to be honest.It’s very different. When meeting someone, where you go to church is typically in the first 3 questions you’re asked.
That's a fairly low bar to clear, but she'll certainly cement conservative hegemony and block anything progressive (or not even that, by getting rid of the ACA). She's a hardcore Republican and they don't do good things.I hope she proves you all wrong and doesn't overturn any of the historic precedents
I curt “I don’t” with accompanying nod and half smile usually solves the issue quickly.Good grief. Not sure how I would respond to that without sounding rude. It seems like such a rude question to be honest.
Pretty much the entire South below the Mason-Dixon line, most of the Midwest, practically all conservatives, and plenty of "liberals" and Dem voters far and wide would tell you otherwise.Hyperbole much?

I cannot remember when anyone last asked me that. Probably at school where one of the lingering fringe of the catholic/protestant loonies in the West of Scotland were trying to identify if they should hate me or not.Oh... and my students, without fail, will always at some point ask me what my religion is.
I have found that telling southerners and Wisconsinites (super heavy Lutheran) that I am Catholic sends them running. Or they curse me out.I cannot remember when anyone last asked me that.

It's such a different culture.
It really is pathetic. They are just so bad at getting people excited to vote for them.The sad reality is everyone knows that the Dems will be too cowardly to do anything about this.
They can smell the possibility of mischief making at 5kmsOh... and my students, without fail, will always at some point ask me what my religion is.
I’ve had folks argue that Catholics aren’t Christians before. Adults and students.I have found that telling southerners and Wisconsinites (super heavy Lutheran) that I am Catholic sends them running. Or they curse me out.
