Republican pols preemptively surrender on Supreme Court, but Americans don’t
By Andrea Widburg
Biden isn’t even pretending that anything other than race and sex are the most important metrics for his Supreme Court choice. And of course, the usual RINOs couldn’t agree more with quotas for the Supreme Court. Perhaps these out-of-touch politicians would do well to pay attention to the American people, though, because Americans think it’s a terrible idea to make intellectual qualifications the least important thing.
Lindsey Graham, a man of tremendous charm and no backbone, has already surrendered on the issue. When he heard that J. Michelle Childs, a U.S. District Court Judge from South Carolina, was on the short list, Graham couldn’t have been more excited. “Michelle Childs is incredibly qualified,” he said. “There’s no affirmative action component if you pick her.”
No, Childs is not incredibly qualified. She is simply another garden-variety leftist. If you search for articles about her in the media before her name suddenly got picked up for the Supremes you learn that she has no record of extraordinary intellectual distinction.
