The nomination hearings in the Senate will be a joke. Ever since the Robert Bork experience, anybody who has been summoned to appear before the U.S. Senate is certain to study and practice the Artful Dodge. To which senators respond with artful posturing and self-aggrandizement. Should be an extraordinary snoozer on C-SPAN. How can anyone take this kind of charade seriously anymore? The Republicans will try to look tough, the Democrats will try to look self-righteous. The woman will be confirmed and the pundits will have a field day with meaningless minutiae.
She is simply not qualified. She has no experience on the bench and, therefore, lacks the acumen to separate her personal bias from what should be the common good.
Her biases are quite clear and dangerous. Plenty has been written elsewhere.
Again, why is she smiling?
Could it be she knows she's being handed the opportunity of at least a hundred lifetimes and can cruise easy street for the duration? Or is she simply clueless? The taxpayers get to endure it. She gets to skate.
