Townhall<\/a> posted an article today about some recent comments by Senator Dick Durbin. The Senator is obviously very upset about the treatment of Supreme Court nominee Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson during her confirmation process. Please follow the link to read the entire article. I am just going to quote a small part of it here.<\/p>\n

The article includes the following:<\/p>\n

Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL) claimed Monday that some members of the Republican Party had accused Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson of \u201cvile things\u201d during her recent hearings before the Senate Judiciary Committee.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Durbin, who chairs the committee, said that most Republican members had kept their promise not to turn the proceedings into a \u201ccircus\u201d \u2014 but he claimed that some had not done so, and had instead made ugly accusations in front of the judge\u2019s family.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cOn the whole, my Republican colleagues starting with my ranking member, Senator Grassley, treated the nominee with dignity and respect,\u201d Durbin began. \u201cThey promised not to turn this confirmation process into a court circus, and most kept that promise.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cSome, however, did not,\u201d he continued. \u201cInstead they repeatedly interrupted and badgered Judge Jackson and accused her of vile things in front of her parents, her husband, and her children. There was table pounding, some literal, from a few of my colleagues. They repeated discredited claims about Judge Jackson\u2019s record. They impugned her motives and questioned her candor. One all but called her a liar. They even suggested that Judge Jackson, mother to two wonderful daughters, quote \u2018endangers children.’\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Does giving pedophiles lighter jail sentences endanger children? Probably. That accusation would be considered valid had it been a conservative nominee.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Oh, please. My eyes cannot roll any harder. I guess Durbin thinks that Kavanaugh\u2019s family wasn\u2019t at all impacted when Democrat after Democrat, along with their media allies, repeated and smeared their father over fake sex crimes that never happened. Christine Blasey Ford was a doofus who only did what she did to stop Roe v. Wade from being overturned<\/a>. \u00a0It\u2019s why her so-called allegation never made any sense. She had no recollection of key parts of her alleged assault because it never happened. It was part of the zero-hour character assassination attempt by the Left and it nearly succeeded. Even then, it took a lot of wrangling to keep the GOP in line.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

What is fact is that Judge Jackson is soft on child porn predators. What is not fact is that Justice Kavanaugh was part of a gang-rape ring in high school. His accusations were never verified because they were trash. Durbin, go shove it.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Judge Jackson will probably be confirmed quickly. That is sad. It is another step in the direction of not protecting our children.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
