Neil Gorsuch is everything liberals feared—and more

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Neil Gorsuch is everything liberals feared—and more (Page 1 of 6)

Posted: 6/26/2017 9:55:00 PM EDT

On Monday, Justice Neil Gorsuch revealed himself to be everything that liberals had most feared: pro-gun, pro–travel ban, anti-gay, anti–church/state separation. He is certainly more conservative than Justice Samuel Alito and possibly to the right of Justice Clarence Thomas. He is an uncompromising reactionary and an unmitigated disaster for the progressive constitutional project. And he will likely serve on the court for at least three more decades.

Although Gorsuch has barely been on the bench for two months, he has already had an opportunity to weigh in on some of the most pressing constitutional issues of our time. In each case, he has chosen the most conservative position.

That was #1 reason I voted for Trump, we needed someone on our side to fill the void.

Now we might get two more? Fucking Freedom Erection!

Strange appointment for a "New York Liberal" eh NeverTrump fags?

Has to be fake news... didn't the NY liberal who is our president nominate him? Nawww, the guy can't be a conservative.

[Grumpycat]Good.

Now let Kennedy, Ginsburg, and a couple more old folks retire.

The nevertrumpers owe the voters an apology...

[#13]

If liberals are crying, pissed off, and panicked.... I sleep well knowing all is right in the world.

And a big thank you to the Hon. Judge Gorsuch for defending the U.S. Constitution.

Ginsburg needs to go. Get another judge like Gorsuch on the court, and Trump can play golf everyday the rest of his term for all I care.

If he makes another pick like this for whoever retires next, I would be happy regardless of the rest of the term

I think it would be more accurate to describe Gorsuch as someone who adheres to wording of the constitution.

Meh. It's Slate. They are so far left that if Ted Kennedy were appointed to the Supreme Court, they would write the exact same article.

It's winning, but the only real winning here is their continued wailing and gnashing of teeth.

I love "an unmitigated disaster for the progressive constitutional project."

What is that project? Putting shit in the Constitution that isn't there, and taking out all the shit that actually is in there.

Hell of a project.

If he should be involved in some terrible accident, if he commits suicide, if he happens to get shot by a cop or suffer from food poisoning I'm going to blame some people but that aside let me say that on the souls of my Grandchildren I will not be the one to break the peace we have made here today....or something like that

Sadly, the GOP congress has not even met my very, very low expectations

I'm pretty sure we'll get a couple more over the next 7 and a half years. They'll probably all hang on assuming he won't get re-elected in 2020 but when he does I'm guessing a couple will fold.

If we can get a couple more in the mold of what Gorsuch appears to be we'll be in good shape for a while there.
