Obama Picks Anti-Military Loon Elena Kagan For Supreme Court
Posted by Jim Hoft on Monday, May 10, 2010, 6:06 AM
Obama picked an anti-military loon to sit on the Supreme Court today. Elena Kagan expelled military recruiters from the Harvard campus in defiance of The Solomon Act. Her case was rejected by even the most liberal justices of the Supreme Court. Of course, the fact that Obama would nominate some radical with such poor judgement to the Supreme Court surprises no one.
Leftwing activist Kagan protests the military.

Kagan told fellow protesters at the rally:
“I’m very opposed to two government policies that directly violate our policy of nondiscrimination and directly impact our students,” stated Dean Kagan at the rally. “The first is ‘Don’t ask, don’t tell.’…. The second is the Solomon Amendment which effectively forces educational institutions to make exceptions to their nondiscrimination policy when it comes to the military and military recruitment.”
The pro-military organization Move America Forward is not pleased:
“Kagan was the last person from Obama’s short list that military personnel and their families want to see appointed to the Supreme Court. Not only has Kagan never even been a judge, she has a record of being radically anti-military, most notably in her opposition to the Soloman Act.”
When Kagan was Dean of Law at Harvard University, she expelled military recruiters from campus in defiance of The Solomon Act, which she has argued against in writing and speeches. She, along with 40 other law professors, argued to the Supreme Court against the Soloman Act, but her arguments were rejected by even the most liberal justices.
“President Obama should be appointing to the Supreme Court only those who truly appreciate the heroism and contribution to our freedom we get from the United States military. Kagan fails that test, and we hope she will be summarily rejected in confirmation by the United States Senate.” concluded Gonzalez.
Elena Kagan’s most notable foray into public life was kicking military recruiters off of Harvard’s campus. This must have impressed Barack Obama so much that he is putting her on the Supreme Court.
God Bless America.

Is her citizenship going to be a problem because I think I’ve read on the Internet that she was born on the Isle of Lesbos.
NeoKong commented:
Let’s be blunt.
She was nominated because of her anti-military views.
Her left-wing views is why he wants her.
Obama would nominate Rachel Maddow if he could get away with it.
Militant Conservative commented:
Alright Senator’s block this nomination make it a fight and some of you may come back in November. I want ALL Republicans in lock step against this nomination. This is not over, yet.
Show the man child how it is done. powder is dry
Mrs. X commented:
Well, one thing is for certain. The most distinct qualification and requirement of a liberal female nominee to the SC is that she must be really unattractive. She shouldn’t have any problems getting in.
Just my observation.
jonyjoe101 commented:
A pro gay unmarried (possible gay) , anti military but (repeal don’t ask don’t tell) lot of contradictions there. There is already too many women in the court. This will definitely tilt the balance of power into the socialist arena.
This is a real weirdo.
NC Cop commented:
Did I also read that she has NO judicial experience?
Are you freaking kidding me???
olm commented:
This seems like an entirely dumb pick on the punk in chief’s part. Like giving most of the country the finger.
I suppose he has to pick this loon before the house and Senate change in November but this chick is going to be huge trouble for years and years to come.
Andreas K. commented:
Great, another communist wench is given power over people’s lives.
What could possibly go wrong, eh Obama?
Everything.

Maybe she gave Obie a BJ. Cause, hey, Hollywood and other areas are working with “casting couches.” I know one actress here in Austria who clearly got her part in the musical Mozart (she played his sister) not for her skills, but rather obviously simply because those behind the production were “convinced” by her.
Wouldn’t be surprised if this was common among the commies as well.
Personally I think “don’t ask, don’t tell” is perfectly fine. Sexual orientation is 100% irrelevant in the military. The only question that matters is: is the recruit willing to give 100%?
BackwardsBoy commented:
America is a center-right country. Anything other than a center-right SCOTUS nominee should be met with fierce opposition by Senate conservatives.
C-Christian Soldier commented:
waiting for the RINOS to stop this nomination–I know-we’ll be waiting a LOOOOOOONG time!
C-CS
Pat the First commented:
The fact that she does not have any judicial experience really upsets me. Why in the world would you nominate someone with ZERO judicial experience to the SCOTUS? There are lesser courts like an appellate court available for attorneys for a judical system. We don’t need an amateur on the bench. Of course, that happens when you have amateur in the WH.
One thing she will not have come back to haunt her is her judicial decisions. She has none.

I hope military takes notice of this.

A complete and utter disaster.
Typical Liberal Democratic Partisan folly.
And some claimed Elections don’t matter?

Garbage…
Thankfully a Republican gave us Roberts and Alito.

She can always hire someone to write her decisions — someone acceptable to Mein Fuhrer.

Paybacks AGAIN
This is payback for covering during the election by holding his records from the press.
She was responsible as Dean of Harvard for hiding his records from the public.
Toaster802 commented:
Look like there is only one way now to take our country back from the Obot.
PROVE THAT HE REALLY IS THE FIRST KENYAN
Then demand EVERYTHING he has done has been done by the taint of treason, therefore null and void.
Then, there is a whole lot of people who need to answer what they have done in his name, and need to be made to PAY for their crimes against their fellow Americans.
Hemp is dry…
AnnS commented:
Not that it matters what the American People want:
Do you approve of the potential Supreme Court nomination of Elena Kagan?
Thanks for your vote.

hermie commented:
So instead of an experience judge, or someone who has an extensive history of writings on the law, Obama has chosen another lightweight based on his political agenda.
A nominee who has not had any practical real-life experience in the law, but an academic who can only parrot the usual liberal judicial dogma and theory.
mrt commented:
Kagan’s senior thesis:
“To the Final Conflict: Socialism in New York City, 1900-1933.”
“Americans are more likely to speak of a golden past than of a golden future, of Capitalism’s glories than of socialism’s greatness.”
Btw, the “Final Conflict” she writes about?
“What Ms. Kagan refers to as the “final conflict,” Pope John Paul II called the “final confrontation.”
“In short, two camps are aligning for a final conflict, a final confrontation: the Mystical Body of Christ and the Mystical Body of Antichrist. The Democratic Party has been radicalized and is now advancing Socialism. It is merely a tool of a Satanic worldwide movement to neutralize the Catholic Church and to prepare the way for the Man of Sin.”

Hmmm.
I think this was the look “Chaz” Bono was shooting for when she/he had her/his sex-change operation.
Granted, this lady has a couple of years on Bono and obama is after all replacing a man (of sorts) on the high court.
But he definitely didn’t dilute nor subtract from the liberal presence in his choice. Not one iota.
anon commented:
Obama is nominating Kagan because she is a woman and shows people that his picks are “diverse.” The left’s obsession with race and diversity is pathetic. As a woman, I’m embarrassed. He should be nominating justices based on their qualifications/experience (of which he lacked when voted as POTUS and continues to lack), NOT based on their gender or race.
olm commented:
This is his Harriet Meirs but he is too egotistical to care.
Tom Kubiak commented:
That’s why the military is right of center.
Stuart commented:
It really doesn’t matter whether the pick is Kagan or not. Obama’s entire list of potential nominees is just one left wing loon after another. There are no centrists, no conservatives. Only statist after statist. The only way this could come out well is if somehow the congress could reject one nominee after another until 2013. Not likely to happen:
greenfairie commented:
What’s sad is the useless Republicans won’t do anything to fight this. Harriet Myers is a scholarly genius jurist compared to this lady.
KenK commented:
The state which separates its scholars from its warriors will have its thinking done by cowards and its fighting done by fools.

I see the know-nothing children are out in full force. Anti-military loon? You can sit at the big kid’s table when you stop hurling insults, but that’s all you have, isn’t it? It must really suck to be a conservative, ignorant of history, stuck with a rejected ideology, and ignored by people who actually know what they’re talking about. Good luck.

Breaking The War Mentality by Barack Obama March 10, 1983
[.] We try to talk to that frustration.” Consequently. the thrust of ARA is towards generating dialogue which will give people a rational handle on this controversial subject. This includes bringing speakers like Daniel ElIsberg to campus, publishing fact sheets compiled by interested faculty, and investigating the possible development of an interdisciplinary program in the Columbia curriculum dealing with peace, disarmament, and ‘world order. Tied in with such a thrust is the absence of what Don calls “a party line.” [.]
[.] Also, the New York City Council may pass a resolution in April calling for greater social as opposed to military spending. Things like this may dispel the idea that disarmament is a white issue, because how the government spends its revenue affects everyone.” [.]
In 1933 the German establishment thought it could use Hitler to restore a modicum of order to the confused and confusing Weimar Republic. In fact, Hitler did strengthen the German establishment, but not exactly in the way the bankers and businessmen had wanted; and now, fifty years later, it is clear who was using whom. Nevertheless, the Western World did not complain in 1933 because Hitler, though a fascist and a totalitarian, was seen, like countless American puppet dictators today, as someone who leaves the established order in place.

Young Obama Wrote Article Blaming
America For ‘Growing Threat of War’
[If Obama still has this sensibility, he could be poised to take American foreign policy sharply to the left, notwithstanding the centrist foreign policy team he has assembled. Moreover, since Obama didn’t recognize the Soviet menace during the Cold War and blamed the possibility of war entirely on the United States, there’s good reason to think that today he could lack the moral clarity needed to fight radical Islam.]

This is off topic but Obama is going to give financial support to Charlie Christ for Senator of Florida–while giving short shrift to the party’s candidate Kendrick Meek. Seems there is a pattern here of dumping on black candidates. But Sharpton and Jackson are nowhere to be found.

I see the know-nothing children are out in full force. Anti-military loon? You can sit at the big kid’s table when you stop hurling insults, but that’s all you have, isn’t it? It must really suck to be a conservative, ignorant of history, stuck with a rejected ideology, and ignored by people who actually know what they’re talking about. Good luck.
Yet your response is one befitting a child, isn’t it? You complain about the insults posted by others here but then you spend most of your post tossing out insults. Is that all you have? Are you bright enough to see the laughable hypocrisy?
Then, mixed in with the insults, are the normal bunch of Left-wing rallying rants about ALL conservatives being ignorant and stupid and conservativism being a rejected ideology. I guess you are simply incapable of seeing the irony behind you tossing out blanket insults against ALL conservatives — an act used by those who lack intellectual sophistication and critical-thinking skills — while trying to act intellectually superior. Yeah, nothing says intelligence more than tossing out overgeneralizations against millions of people, many of whom are highly educated and successful. But I guess they’re ignorant and stupid, while the millions of high school dropouts that support your ideology are the enlightened ones that “know what they’re talking about,” right? Puh-lease. You’re a joke and obviously not intelligent or sophisticated enough to see the utter foolishness of the diatribe you posted above.
BTW, we’ll see in November about this “rejected ideology” hypothesis, genius. The Left wins a couple of election cycles now conservatism is a “rejected ideology.” Yeah, you’re a real deep thinker who has such a grasp on history and “knows what you’re talking about,” CCFK. Your stupidity is astounding.

Steve commented:
Rehnquist had no “judicial experience” either; I’m sure none of you opposed him. And she isn’t “anti-military”–she’s arguing that when the military is WRONG on a certain issue (as it is on its antigay discrimation policy) it shouldn’t be immune from the law.
The ignorance, homophobia, and just plain stupidity on this board predate the Stone Age. God help the country if most of you truly represent it.
