Sen. Sessions on Kagan’s Alarming Record on Guns, Military, Partial-Birth Abortion, & Illegal Immigration (video)
Posted By Vicki McClure Davidson on August 4, 2010
In an impassioned floor speech yesterday, Sen. Jeff Sessions of the Judiciary Committee gave an overview of the many controversial issues in Elena Kagan’s record. These issues — gun control, partial-birth abortion, illegal immigration, and the US military — will be the focus of floor debate on her nomination to the Supreme Court.
Excellent effort, Senator, but it won’t make a bit of a difference.
The Democrats will shove radical Kagan through to the Supreme Court. Because her lack of adherence to the US Constitution and her left-wing extremist background are just what the progressive statists want.
Sen. Jeff Sessions: Kagan’s Alarming Record: Military, Guns, Partial-Birth Abortion, Illegal Immigration | August 3, 2010
From KXNT-AM News, Confirmation Near, Senate Debates Kagan:
Supporters and opponents of Elena Kagan painted vastly different portraits of the Supreme Court nominee on Tuesday, as they got their final say on the Senate floor before a near-certain vote to confirm her later this week.
Democrats praised President Barack Obama’s nominee as a highly qualified legal scholar who would add a sorely needed note of fairness and commonsense to a court whose conservative majority, they argue, has run amok. Republicans charged she’s an inexperienced cipher who would use her post to mold the law to her own liberal beliefs.
From Publius, Big Government: Senators Make Final Arguments on Kagan Nomination:
Sen. Jeff Sessions of Alabama, the panel’s ranking Republican, presented a harsh indictment of Kagan, calling her an unqualified, intellectually dishonest nominee who would pretend to be an objective judge but instead seek to push her own agenda.
“I don’t think it’s a secret. I think this is pretty well known that this is not a judge committed to restraint, (or) objectivity,” Sessions said. Her past actions and testimony indicate she’d be “an activist, liberal, progressive, politically minded judge who will not be happy simply to decide cases but will seek to advance her causes under the guise of judging.”
