kagan should be appointed to the supreme court. She will bring balance to ths court that is sorely missing at the present time. Look at their recent rulings on citizen united and on handguns. Roberts & Alito were appointed last year and both favor corporations over the individual rights. Sen Sessons spend 1/2 hour on the same subject and did not question her on what she would do on future issued that would come up on future courts. The republicans will go to any length to discredit a nominee.

Justice Integrity Project Urges 'No" Vote on Kagan

Washington, DC (June 28, 2010)—The Senate should reject Elena Kagan’s Supreme Court nomination because she seeks to expand executive branch authority at the expense of the public’s historic civil rights.

A Smoking Gun in the Kagan Case?

Unless there is some other interpretation of these documents that does not occur to me, it appears that Elena Kagan participated in a gigantic scientific deception. On behalf of the Clinton White House, she deliberately subverted what was supposed to be an objective scientific process. The ACOG report was certainly seen in that light by the federal courts. Federal Judge Richard Kopf was deeply impressed by the scientific integrity of the report;

Isn't that what Obama did with the No Deep Drilling Moratorium? Don't like the facts, just change it to your liking then re-submit.

Kagan's kabuki theater

Ms. Kagan is playing her expected role in the predictable manner. We saw the same kabuki dance during the hearings for Justice Sonia Sotomayor less than a year ago. When asked by the sympathetic Sen. Patrick J. Leahy, Vermont Democrat, if she agreed that "the Supreme Court decided in Heller that the personal right to bear arms is guaranteed by the Second Amendment of the Constitution against federal law restrictions," Ms. Sotomayor answered: "It is." Yet her answer to this obviously staged question was a lie. On Monday, Justice Sotomayor joined the Supreme Court minority in saying that there is "nothing in the Second Amendment's text, history or underlying rationale that could warrant characterizing it as 'fundamental,' insofar as it seeks to protect the keeping and bearing of arms for private self-defense purposes." In other words, she was untruthful.

Liberals are such liars.

What the eff are you talking about big bob? Wasn't sotomayor a bush apointee? and liberals are liars? mr. pot meet mr. kettle....

OPEN THREAD: DENTISTS, WHETHER YOU HAVE INSURANCE OR NOT.

A Woodstock, New York, a dentist charges, AFTER INSURANCE, etc., $600 ("SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS") to the patient for a PLASTIC, TEMPORARY, CAP!

ASPEN DENTAL has a free initial exam with free xrays, WHICH ASPEN SAYS YOU NEED EVERY 6 MONTHS, BUT, CHARGES $130 ("ONE HUNDRED THIRTY DOLLARS") FOR SO-CALLED CLEANING ITEMS, SUCH AS AN ORDINARY TOOTHBRUCH, WHICH ARE FORCED ON THE BILL AND ON THE PATIENT.

Both dentists, have beautiful advertising in newspapers and tv.

Are there any dental clinics in NYC?

Should Jeff Sessions be a supreme court justice?He got his shot and was brought down,so now he is just bitter to any opposition party nominee.

Senator Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) is the new point man for the Republican Party in terms of the confirmation hearings for the eventual nominee to replace Justice David Souter. Senator Sessions has a troubled past where civil rights is concerned and personally, he leaves a bitter taste in my mouth. He was named the ranking Republican member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, which was left vacant last week after Sen. Arlen Specter (D-Pa.) switched parties. Sessions will walk a very fine line when he takes center stage to challenge President Obama's choice for the court. It's ironic that Sessions' own 1986 nomination to the federal courts turned into a racially tinged firestorm.

RE:Sessions, that was a nomination for a federal court position,not supreme court.

HEADLINES: DIVIDED LEGISLATURE UNLIKELY TO OVERRIDE PATERSON'S VETOES--LEGISLATURES GET $1.2 MILLION FOR EXPENSES

The legislatures had $4 million in salary withheld until they vote on the 2010-11 budget, BUT HAVE STILL RECEIVED $1.2 MILLION SINCE APRIL 1 FOR THEIR DAILY EXPENSES TO COME TO ALBANY..


Unless you are on welfare, do you receive daily expenses? Doesn't it come from your base salary?


The legislatures receive $171--A DAY--WHEN THEY ARE IN TOWN (Albany) FOR LODGING AND MEALS. The per diem covers hotel, meal and travel expenses!

DO YOU GET PAID FOR YOUR LODGING, WHEREEVER YOU SLEEP, YOUR MEALS, WHEREEVER YOU EAT, AND THE TRAVEL EXPENSES, EVEN IF IT IS AROUND TOWN?

Saland received $4,470 in per diems for the past 3 ("three") months--living large on the taxpayer, many who do not work for that much.

THE STATE BUDGET HAS BEEN LATE 23 OF THE PAST 25 YEARS. AND , THEIR BASE SALARY IS WITHHELD AND THEY LIVE ON THE PER DIEMS UNTIL THE BUDGET IS PASSED WHEN THEY RECEIVE THEIR BACK PAY.

Albany legislatures receive a base salary of $79,500, PLUS STIPENDS FOR CHAIRING COMMITTEEES AND OTHER POSITIONS.

WHAT DO THEY GET PAID $79,500 FOR?


And, might as well as, the judge who now gets paid for dry cleaning his robes on the taxpayer--$10,000 a year.

Kagan has known Obama for years and is part of Obama's clique and political philosophy.

p.S. There is no incentive for a legislature representative to excel, except MONEY--FOR CHAIRING COMMITTEES, OTHERWISE THEY CAN RIDE FOR FREE.

WHAT WAS THE REPRESENTATIVE ELECTED FOR? THE PEOPLE'S VOTE SHOULD BE THE INCENTIVE TO CHAIR COMMITTEE'S AND POSITIONS, NOT MONEY.

No. Definately not. Her views are too political and she has no judicial experience. This will only hurt the American court system in the long run.

She is the best nominee out there. Of course she should be confirmed. Kagan will finally bring balance to the court which is pretty much unbalanced and bias after Alito and Roberts were appointed last year. Its obvious they favor corporations over individual rights.

I don't know much about her views, I can only judge by one thing. If Obama, who seems to care little about us, wants her confirmed, then she should not be confirmed, because it probably means it is not in the best interest of the people,

FYI:

EXPLODING THE MYTHS ABOUT MONEY

Our money system is not what we have been led to believe. The creation of money has been "privatized," or taken over by private money lenders. Thomas Jefferson called them “bold and bankrupt adventurers just pretending to have money.” Except for coins, all of our money is now created as loans advanced by private banking institutions — including the privately-owned Federal Reserve. Banks create the principal but not the interest to service their loans. To find the interest, new loans must continually be taken out, expanding the money supply, inflating prices — and robbing you of the value of your money.

Panetta: Iran can build two nukes within two years - sanctions unavailing

June 27, 2010

CIA director Leon Panetta has admitted that Iran has enough low-enriched uranium for two nuclear bombs that would likely take two years to build. In an interview with ABC's This Week Sunday, June 27, the spy chief virtually admitted that every effort to halt Iran's drive for a nuclear bomb had failed. Asked if the latest round of UN sanctions would put an end to Iran's nuclear ambitions, he said: "Probably not."
According to debkafile's military sources, Panetta was the most realistic of any US official of late about the epic turn of events confronting the US, Israel, the Middle East and the Gulf nations, namely Iran's transformation into the region's second nuclear power after Israel.
His evaluation translates into the following prognosis: If today Iran has enough low-enriched uranium to build its first two nuclear warheads two years hence, it means that by then, by sustaining its present rate of progress, Tehran will have acquired enough fissile fuel to build another five to six bombs and another 10-12 by 2015. A nuclear arsenal was Iran's goal from the year 2000 and it is steadily advancing on this goal unhindered by any outside security interference, as debkafile's military and Iranian sources have reported for the last six months.
At the beginning of June, Israeli Mossad director Meir Dagan estimated that Iran was lagging behind its enriched uranium target due to a number of technical malfunctions. But he never said or even implied that the program was stalled. That it was not, Panetta has now confirmed.

In so doing, he refuted the latest firm-sounding assertions by US president Barack Obama and defense secretary Robert Gates that Iran will not be allowed to acquire nuclear arms.
Although he did not spell this out, the CIA director's words mean that since diplomacy and sanctions have reached a dead end, the only realistic option left for bring Iran's nuclear progress to a halt is a military strike. But in the same interview, asked about a potential Israeli military attack on Iran's nuclear facilities, Panetta said he thinks "Israel is giving the US room on the diplomatic and political fronts."

What he said, in effect, was that the Netanyahu-Barak government, which rarely moves in any direction without President Obama's okay, is still not considering military action against Iran - even at this eleventh hour before disaster - and willing to go along with the Obama administration's pretense that the diplomatic option can still work.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and defense minister Ehud Barak are sidestepping the toughest security threats Israel ha faced - a nuclear-armed Iran and the evolving extremist, anti-West "Northern Islamic alliance" in the process of formation by Iran, Turkey, Syria, Hamas and Hizballah. They are immersed instead in such side issues as calibrating the sustainability of the Gaza siege, the fictitious indirect talks with the Palestinians (Mahmoud Abbas is never in the country) and a possible handover to Lebanon of the tiny divided village of Ghajar, which no one wants other than the UN peacekeeping force.
Israel's leaders continue to hide from the public the fundamental differences between Israel and the Obama administration not just about Iran, but about its own nuclear capabilities in the face of the US president's determination to denuclearize the Middle East, starting with international restrictions and inspections for Israel's reputed arsenal.
The Netanyahu government's willingness to align its policies with Washington accounts for the constant flow of senior US military and defense officials visiting Israel and proclaiming the administration's dedication to Israel's security. Only last week, Michele Flournoy, US undersecretary of defense for policy, attended a session in Tel Aviv of the annual strategic dialogue between the two governments. She pledged that the US would always guarantee Israel's military and technological supremacy.

Last week too Barak was in Washington and held talks with Gates and Adm. Mike Mullen, Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of staff. Only 72 hours later, Mullen paid a short visit to Tel Aviv and was again closeted with Barak after meeting chief of staff Maj. Gen. Gaby Ashkenazi and the IDF's high command.
When his turn for a statement came round, he said he tried to see regional events through Israeli eyes.
All these visits and talks are extremely important. But what use are they when their only purpose is to hold Israel back from using its military superiority to defend itself against Iran, a vital need which should be obvious to anyone seeing the Middle East through Israeli eyes?

The brakes Washington applies to Israel's freedom of action in its own defense have allowed Iran to reach the advanced stage in its nuclear objectives frankly described by Leon Panetta on June 27.
