#2 Once you've appointed them for life, you haven't any hold. The Left, on the other hand, is very good at applying pressure.

#3 I recall reading that, while on the Circuit Court, Judge Kavanaugh voted the same way as his colleague 95% of the time.

That judge's name was Merrick Garland. From the WSJ, Sep 5, 2018:

Sen. Ted Cruz [compared] Judge Kavanaugh’s D.C. Circuit Court votes with those of Chief Judge Merrick Garland. In nearly every panel on which they both sat, they joined each other’s opinions more than 95% of the time, Sen. Cruz said.

“I think we’re trying hard to find common ground,” Judge Kavanaugh said. “As I’ve said before, he’s a great judge, a great chief judge. He’s very careful, hard working, we work well together,” Judge Kavanaugh said, adding that Chief Judge Garland is a jurist “who does not impose any personal preferences” onto his opinions.

Not criticizing or snarking about Kavanaugh... just pointing out the surreal nature of this country's rolling Shitshow that falsely, slanderously painted this middle-of-the-road, thoroughly establishmentarian milquetoast as Genghis Epstein.

We are ruled by morons.

#4 Mehh... jurists live in world all their own. Needlessly elevated specimens of moral abstruseness.

#5 Who's Ginsberg's replacement?

#6 Professional courtesy that one does not speak ill of the dead?

However you are correct, never ever have 'lifetime' appointment cause they morph into an aristocracy that knows its above the law because they say what the law is.

#7 Inspiration is not the same as agreeing on the issues.

#11 Warthogswife for the win.

People forget that Kavanaugh is an exceedingly gracious man with close ties to Elena Kagan, who reached out and hired him to teach Cobstitutional Law at Harvard when she was Dean of HLS.

Kavanaugh is a gent. What was done to him last year was monstrous and should have resulted in long prison sentences for at least a dozen people who slandered and tried to destroy this good man with their absurd lies.

#12 Kavanaugh should shut his gob and do his job.
