Hand searched liberal law professors. You believe they all came up with this independently with no outside coordination?


I believe in possibilities. As in keeping an open mind.
Also these day's I'll believe the t***h and concrete proof before most" narratives". Many are just far to absurd to pay a second mind to.

Wasn't this guy at Berekely Law school before Yale ? Berekely ?????????


I don't know or care where he's been. I remember Berkley was a decent school back in the day.
Higher education is higher education. Besides it hasn't always been tilted the way it appears to be today.
It still doesn't explain away how others reached the same conclusions before signing off on something all seemed to agree on; now does it?

Until professor Post has "walked a mile" in Justice Kavanaugh's shoes, he should sit down, shut his mouth, and open his mind!

Professor Post provided no new information on Kavanaugh's suitablility other than what was apparent after the vetting process was complete and the scurrilous charges had been made by Partisan politicians via their stalking horse Ford.

Disagreement on Constitutional issues means only one of them was correct and the other wrong In view of Professor Post's self-lauding approbation of multiple views of the Constitution at Yale, his remarks are discardable. There cannot be a plethora of correct interpretations of the Constitution and such diversity is a sign of very poor scholarship.

What he characterized as Kavanaugh's outburst as devious Partisan faux rage was in fact rage against the very partisanship, of which, Professor Post accuses him. A man's reputation and career is in shambles, his family is receiving death threats and it is all due to a scheme to generate this uproar and destroy his nomination at the same time violating his due process rights. Post thinks it is "partisan"of him to protest.

In the Burr Hamilton days this would have been pistols at dawn. In the early wild west it would be settled in blood on the dirt streets. In our times we have courts and this was no court or semblance of any court ever known. Sneaky introduction of unprovable accusations designed to agitate the loonie sector of our populace who would have you believe a woman never lies or practices deceit, particularly about matters sexual.

No woman eve had a "headache", no man ever wore the "horns" or heard the call of the cuckoo.
Professor Post provided no new information on Kava... (show quote)


All good points. Spot on about pistols at dawn,a justice more often than not does abide by our constitutional law.I don't like snaky anymore than you or anybody else does.
Not quite sure what to make of the comparison with men and women besides it more than likely is factually accurate. As someone on this board besides me once said " where there is smoke thee is usually fire"
That is just as true as my mantra:the only people I owe my loyalty to are those that never made there's! This mantra has served me well being it lets criminal hill off entirely,and is the reason I vet and v**e forwho can best do or accomplish what We The People want or want done regardless of party or affiliation.
Never v**ed a straight ticket in my life an not about to start now.

The greatest teacher is experience. I am a musician, guitar and bagpipes, and I was taught by experienced musicians. I practiced and played for years before I was able to begin effectively teaching students. If you were no longer able to play the guitar, if you could not demonstrate fingering and picking techniques, chords and chord progressions, scales, riffs and licks, in other words, show and tell, how could you expect your student to learn anything?


You are of course right about experience, it does rule in nearly all things worth doing. That is a mighty big IF because like music itself is never-ending; that I can do. And will continue to play as long as I can.
It's great you are a musician! I can and do appreciate talent;my weapons of choice are piano and guitar.
Classical piano when in grade school, later guitar. Correct it takes years; kindly don't challenge me on its workings,thanks, many have no understanding of the dedication or discipline it takes.
How many guitarists (musicians) play or have played with street musicians? Ive never figured out why they get called that( except that Is where they can be found πŸ€”) when it is just someone sharing their music and talent . I have learned tons from some. Still do.
My own topic is going sideways? Can we attempt to stick with it and agree to disagree? Otherwise pm is in order.
Another thing I both agree with and aspire to in many situations is Discipline is the fire by which talent becomes ability.happy to say I have both in both my jobs.one in the arts,the other in what I enjoy. 🎼 🎸🎸as per what every professional guitarist learned from says is ideal to do so I do.

Even a mouse will roar like a lion to defend himself when he is about to die. Kavanaugh roared loud enough to save his and did not give up. I commend the man for roaring. Way better than laying down and crying to die.


Me too!!!

Morning, Peewee!

'Sterling Professor' is the highest academic rank at Yale University, awarded to a tenured faculty member considered one of the best in his or her field. It is akin to the rank of university professor at other universities.

https://yaledailynews.com/blog/2002/02/26/sterling-professorships-distinguish-yales-top-scholars/


I was being cute, I had already looked it up. Kavanaugh graduated cum laude, which is above average but lower than Magna and Summa. Wal-Mart cake bakers think it means something dirty.

I think earning a cum laude diploma is harder than a faculty member being given an academic rank by other faculty members. It might just mean they are well liked, fit the social scene better, or brought in more money from the alumni. I mean is there a test, is there a measurable formal criterion to earn Sterling Professor at Yale.

I do know that Yale limits the number of Sterling professors to 27 and each get 4,000.00 extra if they get selected. They still must interact/teach students but I'm not sure if that means regular students or grad students. I do know that Yale was started and funded by Christians like most of the Ivy schools and all have drifted from their origins and today tilt left like you tend to do when you are being serious. In it's beginning its main goal was teaching for careers in religion and politics and in that order.

Anything else you want to educate me on? I have Google also you know.

Just like with airfArce one and Kevie,
Who really gives a crap what they think.


to answer your last comment:Public opinion cares( AF and Kev are members just like you and I hence everyone should at least care a little) 😱 this is an open forum is it not?
it may be all they get to go on in their cave of choice. ☹️
what you or anyone thinks of other members opinions could be construed as either hard line ,not open to possibilities or a personal problem,not wanting to see how others feel on this sad state of affairs. πŸ––
hang tough it changes by the hour if not sooner. 😳

it's absurd,jumping to conclusions like assumptions is bad exercise.

Just one thing, Peewee: Traditionally, there had been only 27 Sterling Professorships at any one time, though there are currently 40. Should one suspect that the increased number diminishes the honor?

Severe weather is causing internet problems here, so I may be in or out of the discussion, depending upon the rainstorms.

Somebody needs to update Wikipedia then, it said 27, not 40. I would tend to agree that increasing the number lessens the honor, it's like congress v****g themselves a pay raise.

The weather here is the same.
