Obama SCOTUS nominee Merrick Garland

Obama nominated Merrick Garland to fill Scalia’s slot. People keep parroting that he’s moderate. His record on civil liberties isn’t so hot. As Glenn points out I think hes a moderate in the sense that he approves of government invasions that come from the left and the right.

He doesn’t like free speech.

The Second Amendment Foundation and The National Rifle Association oppose his appointment to the court.

He supported a hearing to ban handguns in DC.

He supported a gun registry.

And back in 2008, Dave Kopel ran down his record on guns.

    His being nominated by O-Racist is enough to disqualify him in my eyes.

  2. Fûz Says:

    Alex Kozinski from the Ninth Circuit would be a fine counter proposal.

  3. Fred Says:

    He disqualified himself at the announcement in the rose garden. He said he would uphold the constitution and the laws passed by congress. Let’s see here, sixth grade civics class…um, isn’t this statist supposed to uphold only the constitution and be a counter balance to the congress (and pres)??? Why have a high court if it only rubber stamps whatever rights congress grants us? They don’t even bother pretending anymore.

    And we’re going to get saddled with him. The Democrats are going to put on intense pressure, and the Republicans are going to fold sometime between the convention and November. They will say it’s to take a contentious issue off the table, blahblahblah, but in the end they’re going to fold.

    My suspicion is that this could be a sly move by the One. One of his pet issues is “gun violence”, maybe he’s looking long term at getting a legacy from being the one responsible for changing the court so that it shuts down gun rights.

  5. Ron W Says:

    Republican leadership should make Obama a deal. Say we welcome your new interest in abiding by the the objective text of the Constitution. So when you rescind your unconstitutional executive orders and do your duty to. “take care to faithfully execute the laws” then we will exercise our Constitutional perogative to consider “advice and consent” for your SCOTUS nominee.

    He’s another “moderate” who will vote with the LibCong every time.

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
