Nominee Kagan cracked jokes in her hearings today. She and the media think it's a great sign and a great thing that she derailed the hearings. Kagan's flippancy shows a blatant disregard for the solemnity of the occasion of nomination to the Supreme Court. That which she obtains too easily she esteems very lightly.
This is a serious matter. Constitutional government is at stake, and when she gets on the court (as she probably will), it will mean Government Healthcare, Nationalization of Industry, Suspension of Gun Ownership, Higher Taxes, More Laws, More Welfare Programs, ad infinitum.
Some Republican Senators and other people will think that because she makes some blithe promises in a hearing that they can count on her when the preponderance of her actions tell the opposite. Elena Kagan is a close personal friend of Barack Obama. What do you think she will do? Kagan will vote lock step with Obama. She thinks that just because she is nominated that she deserves a seat on the Supreme Court. Nobody deserves a seat on a court. Those seats are YOUR seats. They belong to the people, and anyone who sits in one of those seats who votes against the Constitution is a traitor and knows it.
