Rumor: Justice Ginsburg to Retire

That’s the buzz among Senate staffers: The plan reportedly is this: If Elena Kagan’s nomination to the court can be confirmed early this summer, Ginsburg would then announce her retirement, so that confirmation for Ginsburg’s replacement could be finished before the end of the year. Those who believe the rumor see the Ginsburg retirement scenario […]

Trebling My Doubts On Elena Kagan

by Smitty I’ve been enjoined by the wonderful Cynthia to read Clark’s WSJ piece, as a Kagan apologist over the Solomon Act violation. Cynthia, via email, wishes to highlight that: It wasn’t a Sixties anti-war thing. It WAS an anti-discrimination thing over DADT, which, as you might expect, I think is completely legitimate. All through […]

Elena Kagan’s Bold, Refreshing, Courageous Heterosexuality

Y’know, when you have to get your friends to leak it, as if divulging a dirty little secret . . . Elena Kagan is not a lesbian, one of her best friends told POLITICO Tuesday night, responding to persistent rumors and innuendo about the Supreme Court nominee’s personal life. “I’ve known her for most of her […]

Doubling Down On Elena

by Smitty Jazz Shaw points out that you need a fairly stupid mark for Valerie Jarrett to be successful in her sales pitch. Valerie, if we think you’re selling used cars, as when the name Roberts comes up, you need to go away. You attempts to whitewash Kagan’s record WRT the military is quite offensive. […]

Rant Alert: Elena Kagan Should Be Given A Broom And Instructed To Do Something Useful

by Smitty Stacy may be setting up a google bomb based upon Elena Kagan’s after-hours interests. $3.50 and my interest in the sexuality of others (modulo my wife) will get you a beverage at Starbucks. I wouldn’t even afford Kagan the notice of an Uncle Jimbo cheap shot. This Newsmax article understates the source of […]

Q. What’s the Difference Between
Lesbianism and Plagiarism?

A. Nobody ever downloaded a hot plagiarism video. Nor could lesbianism hurt Elena Kagan’s chances of being confirmed to the Supreme Court, whereas her role in a Harvard plagiarism scandal might be big trouble: As Dean of Harvard Law School in 2004 and 2005 she treated two liberal law professors with kid gloves when they were busted for plagiarism. […]

Lesbian for Life or Gay Baby-Killer? Does Elena Kagan Support Roe v. Wade?

Privately, she’s gay enough for Obama, and her anti-military record at Harvard should get Elena Kagan lots of kudos from “Blame America First” Democrats. But the pro-life Susan B. Anthony List wants Senate Republicans to get the new Supreme Court nominee’s abortion views on the record: Today, in response to President Obama’s nomination of Elena Kagan to the United States Supreme Court, Marjorie Dannenfelser, […]

The Previous Rumor About Al Gore Having Integrity Was A Flop

by Smitty (h/t Memorandum) Above the Law notes that the Chief Justice John Roberts rumor about his impending departure was started in a Georgetown Law School class that “…was partially on the validity of informants not explaining their sources.” The room full of Obama votersfirst year students didn’t seem to make the connection between the […]
