Inside Washington's buzz is that President Barack Obama will name his solicitor general, Elena Kagan, to the Supreme Court vacancy left by John Paul Stevens' retirement announcement.
In a word, ugh.
She is NOT a liberal; in fact, just about everything the Obama/Emanuel White House has claimed about her is wrong, namely her alleged minority hiring record while at Harvard. And, what's not wrong is so tepid a defense of her to be worthless.
A skeptical leftist's, or post-capitalist's, or eco-socialist's blog, including skepticism about leftism (and related things under other labels), but even more about other issues of politics. Free of duopoly and minor party ties. Also, a skeptical look at Gnu Atheism, religion, social sciences, more.
Note: Labels can help describe people but should never be used to pin them to an anthill.
