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.
