    Dems on SCOTUS:
    Catholics Need Not Apply


    By Daniel John Sobieski
    July 5, 2018

    Catholics are the sole remaining religious group that it is politically correct to slander and denigrate and the consideration of nominees for the Supreme Court vacancy left by the retiring Anthony Kennedy has brought out the liberal anti-Catholic bigots en masse. Their target is Justice Amy Coney Barrett of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 7th Circuit.
    Just as John F. Kennedy was said by some to be a stalking horse for the Vatican who would clear each major decision with the Pope, Barrett a practicing Catholic who actually gets it right, has been charged with embracing Catholic dogma so tightly that there is no room left for the Constitution and those “emanations from a penumbra” that sanctified Roe V. Wade. Catholic League President Bill Donahue addressed the issue on “The Ingraham Angle” on Fox:
    Senate Democrats grilled Barrett over how her Catholic faith would affect her views on court precedents concerning abortion cases during her confirmation process after Trump nominated her as a circuit judge in 2017.
    Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) and Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Ill.), in particular, showed what Catholic League President Bill Donahue called anti-religion “animus” during their questioning of her religious beliefs…
    "Let’s remember... the seminal statement by Sen. Feinstein -- she said the dogma screams loudly in you," Donahue told Ingraham. "That’s coming awfully close to establishing a religious test."
    Feinstein received intense backlash after she told Barrett during her confirmation hearing, "Dogma and law are two different things. And, I think whatever a religion is, it has its own dogma. The law is totally different. And I think in your case, professor, when you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you."​

    In a previous post, I mentioned that Democrats questioning the a judge about their faith in adjudicating laws is basically violating Article VI of the Constitution is in order.
    "...no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States."​
    According to the Progressive Democrats no choice for the next SCOTUS will be acceptable. They say, let the Borking begin. It does not matter what the person is actually like, what they actually believe, or how competent that really are, for the Left will always find some dirt or skeleton that will transform these exceptional people into the worst dirt of humanity.
    Remember what they did to Clarence Thomas.

    The only time liberals concern themselves with the Constitution is when they think they can shield themselves with it while violating everyone else's rights...

    The liberals have no power in this confirmation process, they might as well stay home and watch it on television.

    Who are “they” and what were they “100% correct” about in regards to Clarence Thomas?
