The Senate confirmed a Catholic woman Tuesday to sit on an appeals court seat over the opposition of Democrats, sparking complaints from Republicans who said they fear some in the chamber are imposing religious tests that would deny faithful Catholics a chance at judgeships.

Amy Coney Barrett, a law professor at the University of Notre Dame, was cleared on a 55 to 43 vote, with all of the opposition coming from members of the Democratic Caucus. Just three Democrats joined the GOP in backing her nomination to the 7th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals: Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia, Sen. Joe Donnelly of Indiana, and Sen. Tim Kaine of Virginia.

She was the first of three women, and four appeals court nominees total, that Republicans intend to confirm this week.

"“Professor Barrett’s past statements and writings show a strong, personal bias against reproductive freedom and LGBTQ rights. And more broadly, her record demonstrates a dangerous lack of deference to long-standing precedent and judicial restraint,” said Vanita Gupta, president of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights."

So she's not a big fan of murdering the unborn, or creating special rights for people based on their sexual behavior.

If there's problem there, damned if I can see it.

Funny how Catholics are verboten with Democrats but letting in Jihadis by the tens of thousands is just fine.

Catholics haven't had anyone burned at the stake in centuries. Muslims have been tosssing the alphabet crowd off of roofs right along.

Great news!

Great news!

Pretty much how I'm seeing it too.

Pelosi defends her PP funding by claiming she's a 'Practicing Catholic'.

So, being a Catholic is Fine, for a Dem Speaker of the House.

It's Fine for stealing a 6th of the entire Country's economy - to impose a form of Indentured Servitude - for Govt HC rationing.

It's Fine for defending Mass Murder.

But it's Wrong, for a Judge.

Quick Quiz Bigun;

If you were dragged into Court, would you rather have a Catholic, a Shia, or a Sunni on the bench?

Winning.

The closest I have EVER come to being bossed around by a Catholic was a bright sunny morning as I was passing by a Catholic Church after the Mass.

I stopped to wish the Priest, who was outside on the walk, a good morning.

And he invited me to come back next Sunday and come inside to see if His Religion and His customs might be agreeable to me.

So, no, I don't see today's Catholics as a problem or a danger for anyone but the Dems.

Muslims seem quite fine with buggering little boys.  I wonder how old they have to be when it's no longer okay and you have to die for being queer.

Dunno. Like most Islamic repressions, it seems to be they do that which is forbidden and blame it on someone else. She dressed that way, he had to rape--then cut her throat because she got raped sort of thing.

It's TFUTEAFU of anything masquerading as a religion, imho.
