Thune to Support Judge Amy Coney Barrett’s Nomination to Serve on the Supreme Court

“Judge Barrett and I discussed her extensive experience and principled judicial philosophy, and it is going to be extremely difficult for anyone to argue she isn’t qualified.”

WASHINGTON – U.S. Sen. John Thune (R-S.D.) today met with Judge Amy Coney Barrett and announced he would support her nomination to serve on the U.S. Supreme Court.

“After meeting with Judge Barrett, I am confident that she has what it takes to be a phenomenal Supreme Court justice,” said Thune. “Judge Barrett and I discussed her extensive experience and principled judicial philosophy, and it is going to be extremely difficult for anyone to argue she isn’t qualified. It is clear that she will be the kind of justice who respects the Constitution and will not legislate from the bench. Over the course of her distinguished career, she has demonstrated a strong commitment to interpreting the law as written and applying it faithfully and impartially. As I have said from the beginning of this process, one of the main reasons I ran for the Senate was for big moments like this one, and I look forward to voting for Judge Barrett to serve on our nation’s highest court.”

  1. Wow. You mean to tell me that Thune supports a Koch brothers Roman Catholic neocon?

    GET OUTA TOWN!

    😀

    She’s an upgrade over RGB to be sure.

    For those on the left wondering why people like me tolerate this kind of selection, so much less is possible until we stop killing human babies in the womb.

    1. I dont think anyone thinks too often about what people like you believe other than pointing and laughing, John.

      How is the 5g treating you? Tinfoiled your furniture yet?

  2. Ahhhhh John Dale,

    1) The Koch’s are not even close to neo-cons.
    2) I’m not sure what the connection of Koch to Barrett, if there is even one.
    3) I’m not sure what her faith has to do with anything.

    Not your best post.

  3. four posts in and nobody’s made the childish hypocrisy charge yet. so let me toss out a preemptive “nobody cares.”

    1. It isn’t childish to point it out, but poison that well if it gives you something to do.
