And he still lives in dc 

I honestly think he'd be a pretty good candidate.... somebody that understands the legislative and executive branches because he's worked in both... and he's a freaking constitutional lawyer.  I just wish he wasn't such an activist.

 

I don't see him giving up his lucrative endorsement deals to go into relative seclusion on the SC, much less when he had so much conflict (you LIE) when he was our president.

He doesn't need to be on the Court.  He already has 2 doing his bidding!  They are activist -- not Constitutionalist!   He'll probably pick this one.  But it's left up to the Republicans and Manchin and Sinema to ensure a Constitutionalist.

Quote from Obama: 

“I used to say if I can make an arrangement where I had a stand-in or front-man or front-woman and they had an earpiece in and I was just in my basement in my sweats looking through the stuff and I could sort of deliver the lines while someone was doing all the talking and ceremony, I’d be fine with that because I found the work fascinating,” Obama quipped.

Oh, that's right -- he did say it's going to be a black woman if he ever had the opportunity.

Me either. He just shouldn’t make black and female the only qualifications. That is so racist it stinks.

It amazes that people aren't like "you get the matches!  I'll bring some diesel" when they hear outright racist statements being made and lauded.

 

There's no difference between filling a panel of exclusively black women and a panel of exclusively white men exclusively because of their race/gender.  Both are blatantly racist.  The fact that people think that this "new" racism is somehow better than the "old" racism blows my mind. 

 

I'd LOVE to see a black woman appointed to the Supreme Court.  I have no doubt that a few of the candidates being floated would make fine justices.  But the selection mechanism is all wrong, and the fact that nobody has a problem with it is mind-blowing.  Literally the highest court in the land, the final arbiter of all matters or racism/oppression in our country, is being populated using the most racist of all possible selection processes.  Can we be any more stupid?


You could literally make the argument "well, white men have lost three seats (i honestly don't know how many have been "lost") so we need to make sure a white dude gets this next one" and you'd probably get stoned to death. 

Promotions based on race only divide us further.

Finally admitting what we already know about yobama's 2 picks!

From the article:  "Senate Judiciary Committee member Sen. Mazie Hirono (D-HI) said she wants Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer’s replacement to be someone “who will consider the impact, the effects of whatever decision-making is on people in our country so that they are not making decisions just based on” the law."  This individual is an United States Senator and knows NOTHING about the courts!!

    • RWG Stem vs Liberty Magnet tips off in 5 minutes in the main gym.
    • REL actually improved this year to 6-4 which was remarkable because like you said, they had a lot of injuries and their bench was thin before that.  It’s crazy how the smallest of the 3 GCCISD High Schools finds a way to at least field a team that can hold their own but you’re right that coaching is one aspect of it.  Not that they’re a top 150 team or even close to it but if they’d lost a couple less guys there’s a real chance they could have beat Texas City and gone to at least the 1st round of playoffs this year which for GCCISD football might as well be State for how hard it is for them.   You’re spot-on about GCM and RSS coaches.  GCM coach is 2-28 over 3 years and RSS coach is 15-45 over 6.  Hard to get kids to participate in what they know from the outset is a losing proposition.  I watched the GCM/NS Game.  I was worried someone would get hurt, felt sick.  All 22 of NS starters are high level D1 Commits, QB is 19 years old, and GCM lined up a bunch of Sophomores against them, kids that aren’t even old enough to drive.     I know GCCISD wouldn’t ever do it but they really ought to stop insisting that the 3 High Schools play each other for their first 2 out of conference games.  At least let GCM out of it.  All 3 schools are in different Classifications so the wins don’t matter except for bragging rights around town and with REL winning both those games every season all it does is kill morale before the first District game is even played.  Let GCM schedule some OOC games on their level like Houston Sterling/Sam Houston/Chavez for their first 3.  That way there’s a good chance even if they lose every District game they could end up 3-7 and if they beat Channelview 4-6.  GCM having to lose to RSS and REL to start their season every year is just a killer.   You want to know why all the talent at EF Green Jr doesn’t show up at GCM?  Because that talent transfers to North Shore after 8th grade is done.  Straight-up.  They don’t care if you know either.  Those kids moms get on Facebook and brag about it.  Of course, most of those kids end up so far back on the depth chart that by Sophomore year they want to transfer back just so they can get to play at all but then you run into the eligibility thing.    Anyway, sorry for the off-topic tangent, this is a BH thread.  
    • They are very good. Really good shooting guard that's '6"3. Also have a do it all forward that's '6"5. He does everything for them. Score, rebound, defend. Maybe not as quick overall as those other teams, but I think they will at least make state semifinals.
    • Brookeland is playing Frankston in Aux gym. Game started at 1pm  
    • What’s your take on brookeland?  How do they compare to those teams in the late 90s early 2000s?
