I was hoping for Barrett too..maybe next time.
The libs are in a frenzy....that's gotta tell you something..
I say give him a chance...just stop and think who Hilary would have chosen..
Well the lib frenzy was pre-fabricated (they obviously had four times as many signs and they will now use), but nevertheless your counsel is wise
@mystery-ak. Like you, I was hoping for Judge Barrett, but if Judge Kavanaugh is OK with the Federalist Society then he's OK with me. And if he's essentially a Second Amendment absolutist then he's even more OK with me.
His position regarding precedent is unavoidable and proper; a Justice has to respect precedent else the law becomes unpredictable and unstable. However that respect should not be absolute. Let's trust that, given the opportunity to correct wrongs and the influence of originalist/textualist colleagues, his respect for precedent will be within limits determined by the Constitution itself.
