So, who will fill the vacancy left by the late Justice Antonin Scalia? CBS This Morning reported that Appellate Judge Neil Gorsuch (10th Circuit) was the leading candidate last Saturday. Guy mentioned Gorsuch as well, along with the fact that the Trump White House has whittled the list to two people. Judge William Pryor, who like Gorsuch is also an appeals judge (11th Circuit) and Alabama’s former attorney general, was said to be another solid pick. Yet, Guy added that Pryor isn’t in the mix, and that it’s now two names that could be selected as the president’s formal judicial nominee next week. |

Between the two, Gorsuch should be the nominee. The object is to replace Scalia with Scalia.
Hardiman would be an excellent replacement for Kennedy.
Although her name hasn't been mentioned, Janice Rogers Brown would be the perfect replacement for Ginsburg, and PC-wise, she'd be bulletproof - female, and BLACK. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"Some people think that the Second Amendment is an outdated relic of an earlier time. Doubtless some also think that constitutional protections of other rights are outdated relics of earlier times. We The People own those rights regardless, unless and until We The People repeal them. For those who believe it to be outdated, the Second Amendment provides a good test of whether their allegiance is really to the Constitution of the United States, or only to their preferences in public policies and audiences. The Constitution is law, not vague aspirations, and we are obligated to protect, defend, and apply it. If the Second Amendment were truly an outdated relic, the Constitution provides a method for repeal. The Constitution does not furnish the federal courts with an eraser." --9th Circuit Court Judge Andrew Kleinfeld, dissenting opinion in which the court refused to rehear the case while citing deeply flawed anti-Second Amendment nonsense (Nordyke v. King; opinion filed April 5, 2004) |
