This guyās worst enemy is his sly face and expressive eyes. Like Trump, they telegraph an arrogant manipulator, totally unfit for the Court and a surprisingly heavily-scripted, corrupt Trumpian selection.
I was groping for an analogy, some could call it manipulating. Is that wrong?
he didnāt answer the question
The simple fact that he would accept the nomination after Garlandās seat being stolen say enough to me about his character.
Another lying Republiscum! Watch a few students recall differently as Durbinās question came right from the letter!
I am already sick of this guy.
He will be confirmed.
If confirmed, I will treat Gorsuch with the same disdain I held for Scalia and his stooge Clarence Thomas.
Another conservative liar and corrupt crook. Part of being a virtuous conservative is being able to lie to yourself and to everyone on matters big and small. Neil Gorsuch is bought and paid for the Mercers and the Kochs.
"No, I didnāt suggest women āmanipulateā maternity leave. I suggested they āpersonipulateā it.ā
Actually, it appears he did, at the very beginning of the video, where he Says āNo Senatorā. The beginning of the questions was actually cut short, so maybe Iām missing something.
You can be as shocked as you want but until you actually ADDRESS this and DO something about it, it will continue to happen. BTWā¦you did not answer the question. DID you say that women manipulate maternity leave? Why should we assume that the woman that said you did was lying? Because you are shocked?
Gorsuch: No, I Didnāt Suggest Women āManipulateā Maternity Leave
GOP: Thats too bad
āSuppose an older partner woman at the firm that youāre interviewing at asks you if you intend to become pregnant soon.ā
Suppose a partisan Senate refuses to acknowledge a Presidential pick to fill a SCOTUS vacancy.
How would you answer this āethics hypotheticalā Judge Gorsuch?
Please use "the pros and the cons in a Socratic dialogueā to answer.
Groping?..oh wait thatās Donaldā¦never mind!
Okay, I read this article and find his answer to be a pretty good one, yet everyone else here isnāt buying it. What am I missing?
note: From all that Iāve read I think Gorsuch would be a horrible Supreme Court Justice, so please donāt think me favorable to his nomination.
As Senator Schumer indicated, it would be better for Neil Gorsuch to wait until the cloud of suspicion regarding Preshitident Trumpās collaboration with Putin and Russian intelligence clears. Neil Gorsuch may be an illegitimate nominee if Preshitident Trump was colluding with President Putin and Russian intelligence and the 2016 election was rigged.
I think the issue is that heās obviously lying. He ānever heard of this claim until the day before his confirmation hearing,ā yet he magically somehow remembers the exchange almost word for word? And does anyone actually believe that he supports maternity leave rights, and that he was shocked ā shocked, he says! ā to learn that there are others who donāt?
Just because he told a pretty lie doesnāt make it any less of a lie.
As I posted elsewhere, I donāt care if this guy is the reincarnation of Oliver Wendell Holmes and Louis Brandeis combined. His qualifications, such as they are, are irrelevant. The GOP criminal conspiracy is attempting to steal a seat on the highest court in the land, and must not be allowed to succeed. Deny this man a confirmation, by whatever means necessary, and then we are even. Besides, Lindsay Graham made me sick to my stomach yesterday, basically saying that there were āRepublicanā seats on SCOTUS. Not the way it worksā¦judges are supposed to be impartial, not politicians. This guy is to the right of Scalia, the last thing this country needs. Roberts and Alito both pretended to be impartial during their hearings; both lied.
