Originally posted by onejayhawk View PostNow that Kavanaugh is seated on the Court, 538 published a story on how he will change the balance. The conclusion is not much. Kennedy was seen as the swing Justice but he was actually very conservative. The moderate reputation comes from a handful of high profile cases where he sided with the liberals, notably on gay and lesbian rights. On close cases, he voted conservative over 70% of the time.

I guess I read Mith's post as a mocking stereotype of all Alaskans, regardless of race/ethnicity, jumping off of the idea that the climate with its cold temperatures and limited daylight during the winters drives people to drink, often to excess. I didn't read it as racially aimed at all. I've seen the same said of almost all arctic cultures, including Siberia and Scandinavia.

Sometimes innocent comments sound like racist comments but are not meant that way. Both righties and lefties like to jump on them as gotcha moments.

Originally posted by B-Fly View PostI largely agree. I don't think replacing Scalia and Kennedy with Gorsuch and Kavanaugh will dramatically change how the Court rule on the vast majority of cases. The Court was solidly conservative before Kennedy's retirement. The interesting thing to watch, beyond Kavanaugh's votes, will be Roberts. Will the "liberals" be in any 5-4 majorities, and if/when they are, who will be the 5th Justice most likely to join them, and on what type of cases? Obviously, if Trump is in a position to replace either RBG or Breyer, the shift would presumably be far more impactful on outcomes.It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws we have seen in recent years and we must stop it.

Originally posted by Gregg View PostOf course it is reference to mith's post. It is NOT inferring that mith is a racist. Some did not understand how mith's comment could be construed as racist, I was clarifying it not agreeing with it.
