Statement by John Kerry on the Confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia



“If there’s anything the last five years have proven – from Iraq to Katrina – it’s that competence matters. Federal judgeships cannot be political gifts to political cronies. Mr. Kavanaugh’s legal experience consists largely of three years with Ken Starr and responsibility in the White House Counsel’s Office for selecting right-wing judicial nominees.



“Mr. Kavanaugh has been nominated to one of the most important federal courts with huge impacts on worker rights and employee safety, clean air, and clean water. But not once in his hearings did Mr. Kavanaugh point to any experience in these areas of the law.



“Brett Kavanaugh doesn’t have the experience for this job. An attorney who has played a central role in only five court cases isn’t ready to manage one.”

3. Boyle & Haynes

I think that's their names. I read somewhere, that they were letting Kavanaugh through and then Fritz isn't supposed to let through these two. I don't think that has worked with any of the judge promises in the past, but we'll see I guess.

4. I don't know. But my stupid senator voted for him.

That makes TWO votes she's really been really wrong on!

I feel bad because we need Dems in order to correct things but I can't feel I can help her get re-elected when she makes poor judgement calls like this.
