Texas Senator John Cornyn Has Overwound His Watch Again
.
John Cornyn makes Juanita’s skin crawl.
“To begin with, he’s so slick that he can’t keep his socks up,” she starts with an eye roll.
“Second of all, trying to reason with him is like a blind man talking to his deaf dog,” she reports. “Plus, watching his position on the issues is like watching a balloon with the air running out. He’s all over the place.”
Juanita remembers back with John Cornyn thought that the nomination of Harriet Miers was “refreshing” because she lacked judicial experience. In fact, in the Wall Street Journal, Cornyn wrote —
For one thing, there is no evidence that service on the federal court of appeals is a prerequisite for distinguished service on the Supreme Court: 41 of the 109 justices who have served on the Supreme Court had no judicial experience at all when they were nominated. These include several luminaries from the school of judicial restraint, including the late Chief Justice William Rehnquist.
But now Cornyn says —-
We really don’t know anything about how Ms. Kagan would perform as a judge if she was confirmed because she has no record,” Cornyn said.
“You need to stand back from that boy,” Juanita warns, “because he’s going to throw up in a minute.”
“It’s like watching a puppy find a place to sit down,” she grins.
My email program is smarter than Cornyn. I get mail from my Congressman Lloyd Doggett and it goes right into my inbox. I occasionally get something from Kay Bailey and it goes right into my inbox.
1Whenever I get email from Cornyn, I get a message “SeaMonkey thinks this is a scam”
Ol’ jc definitely has beandip for brains…and a staff, to match, evidently.
2Cornyn is just like Palin – they’ll both go on record parroting the current line – whatever it is. What amazes is that Republicans seem to think their previous pronouncements can’t be retrieved.
3Well, Foghorn Leghorn Coryn said what I thought he would. He is not just harmlessly stupid and predictable. He is dangerous because of his position, but I state the obvious. I just can’t figure out anyway to get rid of him. Any one know of a shiny object that might distract him enough to get him out the way on critcal votes?
4Just think what he would have had to work with if she’d been approved to the US Appeals court when Clinton picked her in 1999. Oh wait, it was John Roberts who eventually got that post. Wonder where he went from there? You can’t be a Supreme unless you’re a judge, and BTW, we won’t let you be a judge. Right. More women on the benches, please.
