Ibram X. Kendi, an American author who became the new director of the Center for Antiracist Research at Boston University in July, railed against Barrett on Twitter for adopting two Black children from Haiti, equating her and her husband to “White colonizers.”

I'm surprised it took this long for the "white savior" card to be played.

The media is a pathetic one trick pony.

They clearly knew what the situation was, and refused to report it properly, then again that shouldn't be a surprise to anyone.

The left wasn't ever going to tell anyone the truth... I'd bet as others have said her decisions on the court were not hers over the past year, written by her clerks....

Too soon?

That's sick. Brilliant, but sick. But brilliant. But, you know, sick.

I never said it was untimely!

Kendi is a bigot. Putting him in charge of antiracist research is like putting David Duke in charge. It's a sick irony.

This is a great point. I didn't know anything about Byron White, so I read the wiki on him. Interesting stuff, especially since I live in Colorado. I didn't know he wrote the dissenting opinion in Roe v Wade.

He also swore in Clarence Thomas.

Throw the law in the air if you a true playa...

Byron “Whizzer” White was appointed by JFK.
He’s one of the few cases of a justice “growing in office” by moving to the right.

So the democrats have "formally" requested that the confirmation be delayed.

Archbishop Chaput: Amy Coney Barrett Is a ‘Nightmare’ for Progressives

https://www.breitbart.com/poli...htmare-progressives/

The indomitable Archbishop Charles J. Chaput has called out the left for its rabid attacks on Judge Amy Coney Barrett, arguing that believing Catholics are not “extremists.”

“Barrett’s life story suggests that she actually believes and seeks to live what her Catholic faith teaches,” Chaput noted in an essay this week in First Things. “Worse, she has a superb intellect, a deep grasp of the law, and an excellent record as a jurist.”

“In other words, she’s a nightmare for a certain kind of political tribe,” he observes.

Some in our political class now view with suspicion “Catholics who are more than merely ‘nominal’ in their faith,” he said.

In the eyes of the Democrat party, it’s not being a member of the Catholic Church that’s the problem, he noted. “If you’re photographed piously with your rosary beads at prayer—even better.”

But if you are a Catholic who actually believes and tries to practice what the Church teaches, that makes you dangerous, he suggests.

“In Bill Maher’s immortal words, a woman like Amy Coney Barrett, whatever her professional credentials, is just ‘a [expletive] nut,’” Chaput writes.

The archbishop makes mention of the hostile, anti-Catholic grilling that Barrett was subjected to by Sen. Dianne Feinstein three years ago, when the senator famously declared that “the dogma lives loudly within you. And that’s of concern.”

While Feinstein’s anti-Catholicism is particularly crass, he observes, it is hardly unusual.

“Disdain for vigorous religious convictions, especially the Catholic kind, is a virus that’s going around. It seems to infect a number of Democratic senators, including Sen. Kamala Harris,” he noted, in reference to Harris’ assault on another judicial appointee for his membership in the Knights of Columbus.

Painting “dissenting Catholics as ‘mainstream Americans’ and believing Catholics as ‘extremists’ — now a common and thoroughly dishonest culture war technique — is a particular affront to the free exercise of religion,” Chaput declared.

The archbishop is not alone in his concern over the growing anti-Catholic hostility of the Democrat party.

Earlier this week, Catholic League president Bill Donohue wrote that “anti-Catholicism is engulfing the Biden camp,” referring in particular to Nikitha Rai, Deputy Data Director for the Biden campaign, who has argued that “Barrett’s Catholic beliefs should bar her from serving.”

When Rai was asked whether Barrett’s positions on marriage and sexuality were not the “standard position” for any orthodox Catholic, Rai answered, “Unfortunately, yes.”

In Rai’s mind, “any person of faith who holds to biblical teachings on marriage and sexuality is intolerant and should be barred from serving on the Supreme Court,” Donohue noted.

This FRIGHTENING visage now appears on a pumpkin just in time to scare the bejabbers out of Trick-or-Treaters on Halloween.

Did I just hear that the Senate will convene until October 19th? That would be unacceptable.

I'm pretty sure that is the date Graham mentioned.

Graham originally said hearings would begin on the 12th.

ETA: Ok, the hearing is still scheduled for the 12th.

Carry on

Formal response; "letmethinkaboutitno." Simple and to the point.
