Hm!



From The Intellectual's musings:

As the party of Trump, Republicans may lose an entire generation, Rubin warns. And policy wins like the tax bill aren't going to sway millennials' opinions of the GOP.

"It is a remarkably idealistic generation. What motivates these people is not tax policy, is not party economics or party foreign policy; it’s issues that have a moral and a value-laden core," Rubin said. "They look upon environmentalism as a moral issue, as a moral cause. They look upon guns as an issue of [whether] we as a society value children."

The term crime of violence means-
(a)
an offense that has as an element the use, attempted use, or threatened use of physical force against the person or prop­erty of another, or


(b)
any other offense that is a felony and that, by its nature, involves a substantial risk that physical force against the person or property of another may be used in the course of committing the offense.


-------------------------


The ruling came under part b which said 'aggravated felony' is by its nature a violent crime.

74 But seriously folks, you all know what they mean when they call people like this "conservative."

The Republican Party, which has evolved dramatically throughout its history, has this group of people who were born and/or raised during (or not long before) the Reagan era. They like the trimmings of the Republican Party, and they think they somehow earned the term "conservative." Because they are Republicans.

So they're witnessing their Party being taken over, first by those icky Tea Party types, then by Trump. And because they have no sense of history, and no clue what happens to political parties, they have no idea what to do, because they have no foundation, other than Party. Which is no longer theirs.

Once upon a time (like last week), I believed the Republican Party had to die, but at this point, if it's no longer home to these types, and the Ryans and the Bushies and whatnot stop actually holding office, it might actually be salvageable.

She may have a point. The GOPe rolled over and peed themselves every time SCOAMF broke the Constitution instead of honoring their oath of office. They absolutely refused to secure the Mexican border. They aided and abetted the engorgement of The Swamp.

Even today, they're blocking as much of PDT's agenda as they think they can get away with without grinning too much. Far too many of them are more than happy to fellate the anti-Christ George Soros.

So, yeah, she's right. Republicans refuse to stand up for America.

Time to restart the Tea Party within the GOPe. Backstabbers such as Miss Lindsey, Dondi and the rest need to be replaced with people who have some real world experience and who can read the Constitution and understand clearly what it says and means.

86 Jennifer Rubin, first in her class in law school at UC Berkeley, still a moron.

I like this quote from Rubin's wiki page, Hollywood animator and trade union leader Steve Hulett described her to Media Matters as "always funny, with sharp observations. I never got the impression she was anything but a Democrat ... she was mildly critical of some of Kerry's campaign moves during the '04 campaign, but she wasn't in the Bush camp ... it's somewhat startling to me that she is now hard right."

If Hulett can describe Rubin at any point in her career as "hard right", that means that when he considered her "a Democrat" she must have been pretty hard left.

Rubin's current political stance is simply a regression to the mean.

Republican Party, the one that ostensibly represents me, can't be
bothered to say a peep about the ongoing, blatant, in your face coup
d'etat being waged against me.


Yes me, and millions others, because what we
voted for last November is under open attack and is under threat of
being overturned. And I take that personally.


Do any of those
pukes in D.C. think that Chuck Schumer or Nancy Pelosi or any of the
other Mouths of Sauron that constitute today's Democrat Party would be
sitting silently and politely by while Obama was being attacked in this
way, notwithstanding that he actually deserved this type of scrutiny and proctological examination because of his demonstrated anti-American unconstitutional actions?

152 SUPREME COURT: Supreme Court sides with immigrant facing deportation, Gorsuch casts deciding vote. Despite the partisan slant here, I'm not so sure he was wrong. Burglary isn't a "crime of violence." And note that although he ruled against Trump, he also voted against Obama: "The Trump administration had defended the law, as the Obama administration did." Giving administrative agencies broad powers based on vague statutes isn't a good idea.

https://pjmedia.com/instapundit/294358/

That's Glenn Reynolds and I think he's right on every particular.

Not that I think it's a bad idea to deport Permanent Residents if they've been convicted of a felony. But, if we want that to be the law, we should make that the law. As it stands now, non-violent felonies don't trigger the law in question, and a plain burglary is not a violent crime.

No offense to anyone who went to law school, and I mean this in no way to disparage the intellect it takes to get through it.
However... if you are smart, and love the law, and want to work inside the world of the law, I'm sure with hard work you can do well in law school.

However... if you work so hard in law school, so as to be first in your class, you are a special class of humanoid, that must be some combination of evil sociopathy and craven, narcissistic, single-purpose insane competitiveness, so that intellect has essentially nothing to do with it. You almost literally have to make a deal with the devil, to be that good at law school.

This is true. But it's also true that they deny the source of morality to be anything other than what makes them feel good (see also gay marriage, abortion, transgenderism, etc) so that should clue you into taking what these people believe with a grain of salt.

Don't know if anyone here remembers Reagan's run for GOP nomination the first time. Splitter, diluting the vote, Rockefeller is a better rep of 'our' values, etc. It was nasty (family split as well). The GOPe still made a fuss in 1980 when he won. He was also undermined most of the time.

If you want long term success, take out squishy Republicans at the state level and replace them with hard ribbed conservatives. After some time, push them up into statewide jobs, and eventually the Senate.

The chances of getting some nobody to knock of an incumbent Senator, especially one as powerful as Lindsay Graham, are small at best.

The average democrat believes in the innate goodness of man, the evil of Xians, and the inherent nobility of Islam.

They seek redress of their problems through maximum government empowerment.

The average republican believes man is an inherently flawed beast, the flawed attempts at goodness of Xianity, and the obvious malignancy of Islam.

They seek to be left alone by the empowered government.

Billy Dee Kristol, Jen "bili" Rubin and Diamond Jim Comey think that the key to GOP voters getting what they want is handing the democrats a lot of domestic wins and starting as many conflicts as humanly possible.

Well said.

What they object to is their voters having any say in the direction of the party. Before Internet Republican elites could legitimately claim that they didn't know what the little people wanted so they expressed it for them.

Now everyone with a smart phone can tell the high and mighty to take a long jump from a short pier and they don't like it. Their reaction is invariably "Well, I never".

These are the idealists who care so much for poor people, but push environmental, regulatory, and other policies that hurt low income people the most. These are the people not bright enough to figure out that poor people can't afford organic produce and eggs and drumsticks from free range chickens.

These are the people who are causing homelessness by driving up housing prices in California with overregulation.

These are the people who want to welcome hordes of illegal alien's children into the public schools, with no concern for the fact that this means fewer resources available to help academically challenged children of low income citizens.

These liberal millennials are idealistic because their parents have sheltered them from real world consequences.

The ruling came under part b which said 'aggravated felony' is by its nature a violent crime. "

And the question is: when Congress wrote "crimes of violence" into the statute as a justification for deportation of lawful residents, did they mean "Actual" crimes of violence or "technical" crimes of violence?

The problem with using technical crimes of violence as a reason is that those definitions vary state by state, and thus you have a federal law that would potentially have 50 different interpretations, depending on where the violation occurred. Personally I would much prefer that the law simply allow deportation for any felony.

One basic fact ... that can't be argued ... is this ...

Gorsuch aligned with Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer. Aligned against Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy.

Basic Question ... which group do you trust ?

I trust Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy over Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer. Add all the Gorsuch defenders here to the latter group. Doesn't change my mind.

Gorsuch and I think you are wrong. And, based on the opinion he authored in Johnson v. United States, Scalia likely would have thought, and ruled, the same.

I begin with a foundational question. Writing for the Court in Johnson v. United States (2015), Justice Scalia held the residual clause of the Armed Career Criminal Act void for vagueness because it invited "more unpredictability and arbitrariness" than the Constitution allows. Because the residual clause in the statute now before us uses almost exactly the same language as the residual clause in Johnson, respect for precedent alone would seem to suggest that both clauses should suffer the same judgment.

Bingo! A felony is all that should be needed to revoke a green card or other visa and deport an alien. Aliens are here only at our pleasure. They don't become imbued with any "right" to remain here. Frankly, legal aliens can be deported for any reason, at all - or even no reason - just because we changed our mind is good enough.

Posted by: BackwardsBoy likes lobster at April 17, 2018 01:28 PM (GdWl+)

================

You find an upstart political non-entity with Trump's political and entertainment chops who will largely self-fund (cause that's the only place serious money would come from in such a bid), who also has the seemingly magical ability to make every new scandal slide off of him, and yeah, sure, maybe you've got a shot.

Most likely, it'll be some guy from Orangeburg who built a decent but small tire chain who's retired from the tire store and is looking to make a difference. He'll say the right things to get people excited, but he'll have no political instincts whatsoever.

You want stronger conservative governance? That has to come at every level of government from city council on up. If we're talking about trying to turn a whole country, holding a couple of presidencies isn't going to do it. Making Mississippi more limited government conservative instead of big government conservative so the state government doesn't nominate Democratic women to replace Republican men.

And because they have no sense of history, and no clue what happens to political parties, they have no idea what to do, because they have no foundation, other than Party. Which is no longer theirs.

Once upon a time (like last week), I believed the Republican Party had to die, but at this point, if it's no longer home to these types, and the Ryans and the Bushies and whatnot stop actually holding office, it might actually be salvageable.
Posted by: BurtTC at April 17, 2018 01:08 PM (9chmE)"

----------

Well said.

What they object to is their voters having any say in the direction of the party. Before Internet Republican elites could legitimately claim that they didn't know what the little people wanted so they expressed it for them.

Now everyone with a smart phone can tell the high and mighty to take a long jump from a short pier and they don't like it. Their reaction is invariably "Well, I never"."

Agreed, both. As someone else wrote earlier this morning, we need to look at each retirement of a Republican squish not as a seat we need to defend but as the evolution of the Republican Party into something we can support. Some of these vipers will attempt to slither back into the party, especially if it retains power after the November elections, but it ain't happening.

So there's a positive thought for the day, not that I'm wont to do that.

Somewhere along the way people have gotten the idea that being an "intellectual" means that you are smart or wise.

Posted by: Victor Tango Kilo at April 17, 2018 01:32 PM (O7MnT)

============

And yet, it still won't work.

Ryan, who's never been elected to more than a House seat.

Flake who can't win in a primary in his own state.

Kasich, who's completely turned his back on anything that made him a Republican in the first place.

Republicans won't vote for them in large enough numbers.
Democrats won't vote for them because they won't be woke enough for the hard left and Trump appeals to large sections of the squishy life time Democratic voters.
They'll get a lot of play in the media, but they won't gain any traction.

I hope they do it, not because I have any animosity towards those three, but because their enablers will find themselves even further outside any party apparatus afterwards. It'll make it even harder for them to regain any foothold in the GOP.

336 Hazel is Number 52 on the list of Most Popular Baby names in the US.Clara is number 99. Lots of "old lady" names in the top 200.
https://nameberry.com/popular_names/US

I've read there is a 100 year cycle when it comes to names. A name becomes wildly popular for a decade or so (I know of lots of teenage Olivias, just like I know lots of Gen X Jens and Baby Boomer Karens.) Then people get really sick of it. That name becames associated with that generation and as that generation gets old that name becomes an old lady name. When the old ladies die off, ithat name is no longer associated with the elderly by the people in their 20's having kids and they start using it again.

Witness the popularity of "Ava." Ava and Sophie were old lady names to me back in the 1970's.

342 Kasich is more popular among Democrats than Republicans too.

Kasich suffers the same delusion as John "Landslide" McCain. "Democrats like me, so they will cross over and vote for me."

No, idiot. They only like you as a weapon against whatever Republican is president.

If every Democrat who ever said in 2000-2004 "John McCain is the kind of Republican I could vote for," actually did, he would have had a 50 state landslide.

Can you read? I said, "And, based on the opinion he authored in Johnson v. United States, Scalia likely would have thought, and ruled, the same."

The opinion in question actually quotes from the Scalia opinion in Johnson. It is fair game to bring in the precedents quoted in the current case, and I speculated about how Scalia *might* view this case based on his own words in the prior case. Nowhere did I treat it as a fact.

383 FROM nolo:


All immigrants, including those with green cards, can be deported if
they violate U.S. immigration laws. The most common reason for people to
be placed into removal proceedings is because there is evidence that
they have been convicted of a crime.



Specifically, immigrants are at risk of being deported if they are
convicted of either what is called a "crime of moral turpitude" or an 'aggravated felony.' In addition, certain crimes are specifically listed
as being grounds for deportation.

The full list of crimes that are considered aggravated felonies under
immigration law (which is different from criminal law) is extensive and
may be found in the Immigration and Nationality Act at I.N.A. §
101(a)(43).


It includes such crimes as murder; rape; drug or firearms
trafficking; sexual abuse of a minor; child pornography; money
laundering, fraud or tax evasion involving more than $10,000; theft or
violent crime with a sentence order of at least one year (it is
irrelevant if it was suspended or if you only had to serve part of it);
espionage, sabotage, or treason; perjury with a sentence of at least one
year; and more.




If you were convicted of an aggravated felony at any time, there will
be very little that you can do to avoid deportation, unless you can
prove it is more likely than not that you would be tortured in your
native country upon return. A waiver to return to the U.S. will not be
available for any purpose. You should obtain competent counsel who can
help you avoid an aggravated felony conviction that will permanently
render you inadmissible to the United States.





He was convicted under CA law of an AGGRAVATED FELONY with second offense felony burglary. and he went to jail for more than a year.

Can you ? I thought I put this to bed. Saying likely is nothing more than stating your opinion, not Scalias.

And I trust the collective opinions of Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy more than the collective opinions of Gorsuch and You.

I know ... its a bitch. Trying to rationalize why Gorsuch joining Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer against Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy to keep a non-citizen home invader from being deported can't be a picnic. I'm certainly glad I didn't do it.

But here's what I'm thinking ... purely speculative on my part. No way to prove it. If Gorsuch came out and sided WITH Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy - not a damn soul here would have made one post in argument.

It would have been a celebration of Trump. By God - that's why you'll get more Trump !!! God Bless the Magnificent Orange Haired Bastard !!! Trump Trump Trump !!!

So - in my mind. This doesn't have much to do with the ruling. And a whole lot in defending Gorsuch - as a proxy for Trump.

Gonna' be a bitch if Trump tweets how disappointed he is in the ruling ...

If Ryan couldn't beat Biden in a debate, how do you expect him to fare against Trump?

And Kasich is more popular among Democrats than Republicans too.

But given that the same group of people ran McCain, Romney, and were dead set on running Jeb in 3 straight races, you're probably right. These guys are exactly who they'd choose.
====
As CPT Charles and I have both stated, Kasich is dead to the OH Republicans not identified as "friends of Taft family". He will gain no traction in any primary versus Trump, who will use him as a verbal punching bag, like he did all the GOPE losers in '16. And since Trump is effectively the boss of the Republicans as POTUS (suck it, GOPE) anyone who challenges him from left of Goldwater or as Third Party will have an uphill fight. If Trump actually gets the wall built Kasich will have less chance then Bill D. Cat in '84.

The government is using a law to deport a guy that has as one of the conditions, committing a crime of violence, they further claim burglary in the 1st degree is a crime of violence for purposes of the law.

So instead of coming out and saying that burglary in the 1st degree is not a crime of violence they simply rule the law vague and off you go.


You know what law is rock solid in its language and gives zero wiggle room in interpretaron?

Inhabited doesn't necessarily mean the residents were home at the time of the burglary. The "certain thefts" part can mean petty larceny and grand larceny.

486 I don't see that as a problem. The determination should be based on the State where the person was convicted. It's not complicated or vague IMO."

Understand that I do not say that your opinion is "wrong"; just that it is a political opinion, not a legal opinion. A legal opinion, in terms of the Supreme Court, is one that is based at least in part on prior Supreme Court precedent.

I did read Thomas's dissent. It turns out that he also opposed Scalia in the case cited as precedent by the majority in the ruling today, Johnson vs. United States, insofar as it declared a portion of the ACCA to be unconstitutionally vague. So did Kennedy and Alito.

So the only Justice who really switched sides between the two cases was Roberts. And I believe that Scalia, if was alive, would have ruled exactly as Gorsuch did today. Gorsuch repeats Scalia's reasoning in Johnson almost word for word.

It's as confusing as chinos/khakis/cargo pants.

I dare not even ask for an interpretation of "nachos". I made some last night with chili and my daughter contended that nachos aren't topped with chili, that I what I had made was Petros with tortilla chips. It was my contention that tortilla chips are what made it nachos and that nachos are made with corn chips (Fritos). She noted that both were chips were made with corn and that by using chili instead of ground beef, I had created a chili pie/Petros.

Laughable. Take the flag-burning case.

The opinion of the Court came down as a controversial 5-4 decision, with the majority opinion delivered by William J. Brennan, Jr. and Justices Thurgood Marshall, Harry Blackmun, Antonin Scalia, and Anthony Kennedy joining Brennan, with Kennedy also writing a concurrence.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_v._Johnson

Scalia and a bunch of liberals invalidated laws against flag burning. Scalia and the libs were right; the "conservatives" wrong. It's free speech, and the government has no business banning it.

The government also has no business writing vague laws. People shouldn't have to wait for a court ruling to know what a law means. If a law is written in such a way, it's unconstitutional. Vagueness of law equals rule by men instead of rule by law. In that situation, the law means whatever the people in charge at the moment say it means. Anyone who loves liberty would rightly be against that state of affairs.

560 "The language of the law is too vague, therefor I may not interpret it any other way"

You have just (perhaps unwittingly) put your finger on the most important difference between Conservative Legal Tradition and Liberal (Progressive) Legal Tradition.

A Conservative Jurist sees a law that can be applied in almost any way and says the legislature made a mistake, handing the executive a blank check to enforce it any way they like, thus the law is void until the Legislature rewrites it.

A Liberal/Progressive Jurist sees the same vagueness and says "Oh Goody! I can now re-interpret this law to mean whatever I think it should mean, and thus I can become both Legislature and Executive myself!"

The temptation for conservatives to interpret laws in ways that favor our political views is a poison that will destroy us in the long run. The only real answer is to write laws that are correct and specific to begin with.

Burning the flag is not "free speech" because the flag is actually a legal object, not just a piece of cloth. The flag legally denotes certain sovereign rights and claims, unlike someone's sweaty undershirt, which people can burn all day long if they want.

It's illegal to burn a dollar bill - even though it's "your" dollar bill ... because it's not really "your" physical bill". The flag falls into the same category except that the flag is the archetype of such an object.

The SCOTUS flag-burning decision was a sad joke.

Dude ... take all the previous Scalia cases you like. Doesn't matter. We don't KNOW how Scalia would have voted on this case - because he's dead. He doesn't issue opinions anymore. Because he's assumed room temperature. He can't talk, let alone write. He's, assumably, in a pine box six feet under. Unless his family were cremation folks. I have no idea.

So his judicial career is kinda' over. I'm positive of that.

But we do know this ... Gorsuch sided with Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer against Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy.

Now ... why do I keep bringing that up ? Pretty repetative, ain't it ?

Well ... when you've got a really damning piece of evidence, you stick with it. Now, when you're arguing AGAINST such a damning piece of evidence, you bring as much different shit against it as you can.

Why ? Because you're hoping your opponent will fall for the notion of having to vary their evidence as well. That way - they drop their strongest argument in favor for weaker ones. Because then ... you've got a chance.

Don't ever fall for that shit. If you've got a winning argument - stick with it.

612 Dude ... take all the previous Scalia cases you like. Doesn't matter. We don't KNOW how Scalia would have voted on this case - because he's dead.

I think the point he's trying to make is that even Scalia, basically a saint around here, made decisions that sided with the left on occasion, because his interest was in law, not which team was on what side. So its not unreasonable to assume that Gorsuch maybe just may not be a monster for doing the same thing once??

616 The problem people are having with this case is that they're looking at the plaintiff and not the law. SO try this thought exercise. Say it was a white, Christian conservative family man who was being arrested and charged for a vague law on violent crimes. Say he was going to be banished from the USA for this deed.

Now, look at the law, not the plaintiff, and see what it says, and decide for yourself, not based on who is helped or hurt by it in this instance whether Gorsuch has a point or not. Not based on whose team voted for what, but what the law says.

Read the decisions. Read the arguments. See what the point is.

Doesn't that seem like the right way to go about this?

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at April 17, 2018 02:07 PM (39g3+)


This was a law concerning NON-CITIZENS. There is a huge amount of leeway afforded in laws concerning NON-CITIZENS that would not be available in laws concerning citizens ... because the Constitution is written FOR CITIZENS - "secure the Blessings of Liberty TO OURSELVES ND OUR POSTERITY".

At least, these people seem to be the ones who want other people's money and plan to get it through the government. So I guess by "interesting" I mean "useful" because they've just self identified as people willing to use the power of the government for their own ends.

It is always useful to know who these people are.

639 Burning the flag is not "free speech" because the flag is actually a legal object, not just a piece of cloth. The flag legally denotes certain sovereign rights and claims, unlike someone's sweaty undershirt, which people can burn all day long if they want.

It's illegal to burn a dollar bill - even though it's "your" dollar bill ... because it's not really "your" physical bill". The flag falls into the same category except that the flag is the archetype of such an object.

The SCOTUS flag-burning decision was a sad joke.

Posted by: ThePrimordialOrderedPair at April 17, 2018 02:07 PM (8gDQu)

++++

"Legal Object"? Jiggery pokery. Shall we call the constitution a legal object? Imprison people for burning it? How about printouts of the federal code? To sacred to burn?

When is the last time someone was punished for burning a dollar. Just because a law is on the books doesn't make it constitutional.

It's all dressed up blasphemy, with the flag as the object of worship. I'll stand with those who want no part of patriotism as a religion. I love my country and would never consider burning a flag. Unless they wanted to outlaw it. That would make it worth a bonfire.

Written law holds its import in the content, not the writing. A flag - say one that is planted on a territory or that flies on a ship - is a legal object because of its physical makeup. Huge difference.

When is the last time someone was punished for burning a dollar. Just because a law is on the books doesn't make it constitutional.

People have been arrested for doing all sorts of things with physical currency. I remember a story of a guy who was arrested outside of the FBI building for selling $20 bills for $1. Everyone knows that when they put pennies on the track to have the train crush them they are committing a crime. I'm sure people have been arrested for melting down silver and gold US coins.

It's all dressed up blasphemy, with the flag as the object of worship. I'll stand with those who want no part of patriotism as a religion. I love my country and would never consider burning a flag. Unless they wanted to outlaw it. That would make it worth a bonfire.

Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at April 17, 2018 02:18 PM (pvjTE)


It's not an "object of worship". You're not allowed to burn a valid contract, either, are you? It's just a piece of paper with some ink on it ... But you can't just dispose of it because contracts form the legal basis of our system (at least, they were intended to, though the courts have made a mockery of the sanctity of contracts, lately, too).

In all seriousness, that's where Precedent comes in. There are literally books full of prior Supreme Court decisions, and analyses of those decisions, which define what "reasonableness" is, as a term of law.

And yes, that is one of the big reasons most laypeople think that the Law sucks. Because what you think are ordinary words, when used legally, do not have "ordinary" meanings. They have "Legal" meanings, which is what lawyers deal with.

Burning the flag is not "free speech" because the flag is actually a legal object, not just a piece of cloth. The flag legally denotes certain sovereign rights and claims, unlike someone's sweaty undershirt, which people can burn all day long if they want.


It's illegal to burn a dollar bill - even though it's "your" dollar bill ... because it's not really "your" physical bill". The flag falls into the same category except that the flag is the archetype of such an object.

The dollar bill is printed at a U.S. Mint by the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. Flags are printed at a sweatshop in China.

You can claim your aunt is your uncle for all I care.

The fact of this case are as I stated the government wants to deport a guy using a law, this law says that crimes of violence can be used as grounds for deportation, the guy committed the felony violation of burglary in the first degree which they claim falls within the category of crimes of violence and this satisfies the conditions.

The SCOTUS simply waves their arms and says crimes of violence is vague begone with yee.


Some laws have to be inherently imprecise as to list all of the different permutations and conditions would be impossible.

696 Again, that's not the point here. The point is: Scalia did the same kind of thing with rulings, so merely being on the side that Thomas ain't doesn't mean its wrong. Which is 99% of the arguments being given here.

Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at April 17, 2018 02:20 PM (39g3+)


But just because Scalia did it then doesn't mean Gorsuch is right now.

And every defense of Gorsuch is based upon his quoting Scalia.

We don't know if Scalia was right in that instance. We don't know if Gorsuch is correctly using the Scalia decision. We don't know if Scalia would even agree with Gorsuch using the Scalia decision ... or if Scalia would even agree with his previous decision.

So that entire defense of Gorsuch is moot.

Here's what we do know ... Gorsuch sided with Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer against Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy to prevent a non-citizen home burglar from being deported.

I'm significantly more comfortable with the Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy group on this.

And I don't know ... can't prove ... but would love to see a show of hands ...

... If Gorsuch HAD sided with Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy - anybody think the same people defending Gorsuch today would be attacking him ?

Dude ... take all the previous Scalia cases you like. Doesn't matter. We don't KNOW how Scalia would have voted on this case - because he's dead. He doesn't issue opinions anymore. Because he's assumed room temperature. He can't talk, let alone write. He's, assumably, in a pine box six feet under. Unless his family were cremation folks. I have no idea.

So his judicial career is kinda' over. I'm positive of that.

But we do know this ... Gorsuch sided with Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer against Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy.

Now ... why do I keep bringing that up ? Pretty repetative, ain't it ?

Well ... when you've got a really damning piece of evidence, you stick with it. Now, when you're arguing AGAINST such a damning piece of evidence, you bring as much different shit against it as you can.

Why ? Because you're hoping your opponent will fall for the notion of having to vary their evidence as well. That way - they drop their strongest argument in favor for weaker ones. Because then ... you've got a chance.

Don't ever fall for that shit. If you've got a winning argument - stick with it.

Posted by: ScoggDog at April 17, 2018 02:09 PM (fiGNd)

Yes, you are repetitive, in your dishonesty. You claim that I stated opinion as fact. I did not. I never said we could know what he would have thought. I said that based on what he wrote in the past it could be surmised where he would have come down n this one. Then you stated that I was basing my opinion on who lined up where.

Now come on ... be honest. If Gorsuch had sided with Thomas and the rest ... would you be attacking his decision ? Because I don't think you would. I don't think anybody here would.

I care about the principle. If Gorsuch had sided with the cons, I would be calling them all wrong. Since he was with the libs, lots of people are running around with their dresses over their heads claiming that Gorsuch evolved. I defend him because he is right. I will do the opposite when he is wrong.

You are the one who is looking at the lineup. There is not one spec of principled argument in what you write. Only stuff about those you worship trust and those you don't.

In the 2015 decision cited as precedent for this ruling, written by Scalia, Justices Thomas, Kennedy, and Alito all OPPOSED Scalia's reasoning insofar as it concerned vagueness of a statute. Only Robertson supported Scalia then and opposed the decision today. (and he's the one who's supposed to be so political!)

Thomas went so far as to call Scalia's previous majority opinion in Johnson "wrongly decided."

Now this is not to say Thomas is wrong, he may be correct. It just means that "being conservative" does not mean the same thing as "always siding with Thomas and Alito". Scalia didn't.

She is not a conservative. And after she doubled down on aborting babies with Down Syndrome how can we take her seriously?

Here's the problem. Many Americans *do* value children. We disagree on how best to defend and protect them. And whether gun control truly makes them safer. This is the giant blind spot of so much left wing rhetoric. They argue "if you care about x then you must support policy y - or else you do not care about x". Actually we care about x thank you very much. However we see different ways to achieve goals that express how much we value x.

Home invasion is a violent crime. Non-citizen takes a walk. That is my legal "opinion".

Now ... here's where you, Tom Servo and Anon start arguing the meaning of violent crime. Fine and good ... until you start presenting your "opinion" as "fact". Your "opinion" on this is not "fact" - any more than my "opinion" is "fact".

So - we can all shout our various "opinions" back and forth - nothing comes of it. Because opinion is subjective.

Well - you can't argue this. Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy considered it sufficiently violent. My "opinion" aligns with theirs. Your "opinion" aligns with Gorsuch ... and damningly enough ... Ginsberg, Sotamayor, Kagan, and Breyer.

I'll take Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy. Your invocation of Scalia as a defense is moot ... nobody knows how the dead old guy would have ruled on this.

750 Gorsuch HAD sided with Thomas, Alito, Roberts, and Kennedy - anybody think the same people defending Gorsuch today would be attacking him ?

Turn that around, would you be attacking him? And why not? Because of team cheerleading, not the contents of the case. And that's not the way we should decide this kind of thing, is it? Or anything, really.

What? That makes no sense. We are criticizing his opinion because we think it is wrong . Why would we criticize him if he agreed with us?

752 I do not think this generation of millenials know what morality is.

Hedonism, depravity and perversion don't ding their morality meter.

Environment and guns. These are children feeling powerful and throwing tantrums to get their way, aided and abetted by adult children (celebrities) and our many overlords.

========

Ah, that is an important distinction that the left has been trying to push, especially in mainline denominations like the Episcopal Church.

They want to reduce focus on *personal* virtue, thus people are discouraged from caring about hedonism, depravity, etc.

They want to increase focus on environment, "social justice", "community", etc.

But of course the shape we're in personally is vital to our moral behavior in all spheres. C. S. Lewis had an analogy of a fleet of ships. They had to have a destination as to where they are going, they have to coordinate with each other (community) and they have to be in good condition individually (personal morality). If the last is left out "they might be such crazy old tubs, they'd crash into each other".

753 Granted, the amusement value of Rubin's comments is always high; lots of millikohns worth. But couldn't you find a cute girl to use as a stand-in for the pictures? On top of the Yoko attacks, it's a bit much.

754 Sorry, dumbass, but what motivates millennials ?

SOCIALISM. They are not, and will not be Republicans until they hit their 30s, at best. Trying to connect with millennials is a major losing proposition for Republicans. This has ALWAYS been the case with 20-somethings.

755 570 It is. Its just that in porn a lot of the cuckold porn has a habit of white wives cheating on their white husbands with men who are not white.

And the porn producers have stated that that racial configuration is specifically what their audience, and particularly Millenials, want to see.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I'd be curious to see a source for that info. No doubt about it, cuck porn is definitely solidly interracial. Though not all of it, not even a majority, really.

What I really doubt, however, is that "millennials" are the ones looking for cuckold porn, let alone interracial cuckold porn. You see, to be interested in cuck porn, you'd have to BE married to appreciate it, mostly, that is. Suffice to say, millennials are not typically in any kind of long term relationship, let alone married.

I have a book about the world's porn tastes, I'll have to take a look.... http://amzn.com/0452297877

756 more evidence for the idea that nevertrumpers are really just embarrassed by being associated with the working class.

757 Rubin is a joke. just as hippies became tea partiers, this generation will mature. As for party - my God, conservatives have been ideology, not party forever -- so if she thinks she's special cos of THAT...

758 It is a remarkably idealistic generation. What motivates these people is
not tax policy, is not party economics or party foreign policy; its
issues that have a moral and a value-laden core," Rubin said. "They look
upon environmentalism as a moral issue,

Thank you for finally realizing the hippie-turned-tea-party generation

759 "group of conservative intellectuals"

The actual term for these people is "NOT conservatives".
