Carlson has nothing better than a BA and a questionable career as a political commentator.

I have no idea what Jackson's political persuasion is, but for this white guy with no legal cred whatsoever to question her credentials is at least sexist, and quite possibly racist as well. It evokes memories of the idiot men who questioned Dr. Biden's degrees with no rationale that could stand up to logic. It was all political then, and it's all political now. And it's disgusting in my book. The same people who do this to Dr. Biden and Judge Jackson will do the same thing to Dr. Mayim Bialik and Dr. Danica McKellar, writing them both off as mere actresses, and not scientists and mathematicians. Heck, I wouldn't be surprised if they were to write off Dr. Brian May as a mere "musician." It's elitist and disgusting, in my book....

Tucker Carlson and credibility are like oil and water, they don't go together.

"As a judge who has to decide how to handle these cases, I know it's important to have arguments from both sides, to have competent counsel and it doesn't mean that lawyers condone the behavior of their clients. They're making arguments on behalf of their clients, in defense of the Constitution and in service of the court. And it is a service." ~Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson

He's a political commentator. Did anyone think he was a credible journalist?

That said, when a POTUS says he is going to nominate a black woman instead of saying he's going to nominate the best person... IMO that opens up the discussion a little.

It's democratic pandering to get the votes.

It is. And my guess is this woman is very qualified (I'm about as far from a legal scholar as they come), but I still can't believe there is anyone who thinks it's OK to base nominations on race and sex.

To be quite honest, he SHOULD have publicly said he was going to nominate the best PERSON and then gone ahead and nominated her. IMO that looks MUCH better for EVERYONE involved.

I don't disagree with you. Our entire government, while never perfect, has been transforming from a meritocracy to a kakistocracy in breakneck speeds over the past 20 years or so.

I had to look that one up. And that is true about our govt, and a good way to describe it. Its not often that I get a new vocabulary word on here that I will often use in the future. Thanks.

So you want Republicans to act like fucking children just because the Democrats did?

The only way to rise above the childishness is to ignore it and set a better example.

Kavanaugh is on the SCOTUS so all they accomplished was to smear themselves.

Yes. Play by their rules. Taking the high road to "rise above" is a losers strategy.

The discussions on her light pedo sentencing was fair game. She'll be confirmed nonetheless.
