WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Barack Obama's nomination of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court won Senate approval on Thursday, his second appointment to the court that decides abortion, death penalty and other contentious cases.

The Democratic-led Senate voted largely along party lines, 63-37, to confirm the former Harvard Law School dean as the fourth female justice in U.S. history and the 112th high court member. (snip)

Can anyone prove that she is a woman? I have my doubts.

This is yet another example of how lame the Republican Party is. Considering that people are pissed off about two recent court cases, immigration in Arizona, and gay marriage in California, this would have been the perfect time to mount even a token protest at the appointment of another super liberal policy maker from the bench. But no, not even a whimper of protest from the "stupid" party. We are truly screwed.

It might be female, but looks to either have Down Syndrome or be the cave troll from LOTR. Special thanks to Ms. Lindsay Graham (probably as female as Kagan) for helping inflict this monstrosity on us.

Remember when straight, White, Christian males were appointed to the Court?

Yeah, me neither.

John Roberts: white/male
Antonin Scalia: white/male
Anthony Kennedy: white/male
Samuel Alito: white/male
Clarence Thomas: black/male
Sonia Sotamayor: hispanic/female
Stephen Breyer: jew/male
Ruth Bader Ginsburg: jew/female
Elena Kagan: jew/female

Jews make up 2.2% of the population, but 33% of the Supreme Court.

All of the justices went to either Harvard or Yale law school. There are 184 accredited law schools.

Yup, the Stupid Party gets steamrolled every time. They could have raised just as big a ruckus as the lefties always do, but they'd rather get stomped on than put up a real fight. They fear being called racists, anti-semites and homophobes. Cowards!

I agree with both of you. What a useless joke of a party they are.

The more obvious it becomes that the Old Money Establishment has been replaced by a new Jewish Establishment which is strengthening its hold on a daily basis, the more afraid any public figure becomes to mention it.

Another arch-Marxist, jewess (& even sodomite) traitor to the Republic nominated to the "Supremes" via the puppets on "Crapitol sHill".
