    It's great that Sen. Jackson is pro-life! But what is her judicial philosophy? Is she committed to applying the plain meaning of the law as intended by its authors? Your article doesn't address this.

    The solution to progressive judicial activism isn't opposing activism -- it's rooting out activism altogether and returning the court to its original role.

 

...

I would not encourage sending any Democrat to the court.

    The Lunatic Left hates nothing more than women, African Americans and Hispanics who Christian, Conservative, and Libertarian. IT completely destroys their political narrative.

I'm late to this party, but I'll say it anyway, This is identity politics! No.

    it's a moot point to comment now given Amy's nomination, but if someone were authentically pro-life I do not comprehend how that person could remain affiliated to a party so manifestly aligned against God.

    Morgan thinks Katrina is pro-life. If you look at the "Democrats For Life" party platform, they still advocate for legalized abortion up to the first trimester. It's late term abortion they oppose. Thank goodness for Amy.

The situation in New Orleans is evidently pretty desperate, especially where black pro-lifers are concerned, since the Democrat Party has a stranglehold on the African American community. My hunch is that this has everything to do with at least trying to break that stranglehold. Where we're concerned, raising the profile of the tiny minority pro-life contingent in the Democrat Party seems like a good idea, even if it means pushing a massive bolder up the side of a sheer cliff.

Alveda King is proof that people can change.

That's what I don't understand; if they are being "strangled" why not just switch party affiliation? It's not like they can force them to be Democrats. Would other African Americans reject her if she did switch parties? Anyway your cliff analogy is fitting. But I think the stranglehold is demonic and that it seeks to tear down the lives of all people.

In most cases, Father Altman is correct. However, there might be reasons for staying in the Democrat party. In 25 years of lobbying in the Kansas legislature, I knew many Democrats who disagreed with the positions of their party. The reasons are beyond the scope of this comment. But some of the prolife dems I knew were far better on most conservative issues than many suppose to be Republicans than I could count. And far more willing to fight for the cause of all life without exception. Yes that was more than a few years ago, but maybe this lady can explain her affiliation without being condemned outright.

Also, it is troubling to me when someone says their religion would not interfere with their judicial decisions.


Say it and do otherwise.

How can one be pro-life and vote democrat or be an elected democrat? Maybe 30 years ago there were a few pro-life elected democrats, but not today. Today's democrats follow Mao and Stalin far more then they follow Christ or God.


Over the past three years I have come to believe that the catholic democrats are the dumbest Catholics on the face of the earth. I had the opportunity to engage with some older people in their 70’s to 90’s who are catholic and democrat. They are ignorant of scripture, the tenants, commandments, sacraments. When it came to voting they just voted the name associated to the letter D. When informing them of where their candidate stood on abortion they either denied it or said they were not aware of it. Or! What difference does it make. One woman who learned Hillary Clinton’s position on abortion seemed truly sincere in her sorrow for voting for her. She said she wouldn’t do that again. Too late though. She passed away last year. At least there is one less catholic democrat to worry about.

Excellent idea. Of course it will have to be done in President Trump's second term when he has the opportunity to replace Justice Breyer.

 

A demonrat is a demonrat.

Apart from Katrina Jackson, there's only one other Dimocrat I like: Robert F Kennedy, Jr. In this dark age of worldwide Kungflu plandemic, his Children's Health Defense has become ever more important.

How do they justify staying in the party of death and destruction? By calling themselves democrat they identify with the party.


I fully agree with Father James Altman: it's become impossible to be both a Democrat and a faithful Catholic. Those 2 positions have become mutually exclusive. In the case of Robert F Kennedy Jr. his attachment to the Democrats is only through his family, as he is well known to oppose much of their agenda.

I would love to see Slow Joe, Chuck and Nancy, MSM et al. having to try to work out how to oppose such a nominee as Katrina Jackson. A black woman Democrat!

She seems like a lovely young lady. It's great that she is a Senator. She is a Democrat and likely could never have got to the Senate unless she was.

However I wonder who Katrina will be voting for? Trump? Not likely is it?
She should cross the floor to truly demonstrate her pro-life commitment.

Apart from anything else how qualified is she? Yes she is a lawyer, but doesn't such a position go to an eminent judge? That is a genuine question as I am a Brit and have very limited knowledge of the history of Supreme Court appointments.

      This is a good and very important question. The US Constitution doesn't list any requirements for being a SCOTUS justice. (There were no law schools when the Constitution was written, so nobody had a JD...)

    Own comment: 

    It is hard to know if this article on The Remant was written in jest. Still, I have to agree with John Hladky who asks:

    ... if someone were authentically pro-life I do not comprehend how that person could remain affiliated to a party so manifestly aligned against God

    As for Catholics who are affiliated with the Democratic party in the U.S., if there are any who genuinely believe themselves to be Catholic, then I have to agree with Clifton Webb entirely:

    Over the past three years I have come to believe that the catholic democrats are the dumbest Catholics on the face of the earth.
