90. If he honestly believes this decision is consistentwith the philosophy
he claimed at the hearing, then he is an idiot because it is obvious that it is 180 degrees away from that position. Considering his lifetime achievements it is far easier to believe he is a liar than he is an idiot.

His intent was to get on the supreme court. Like Thomas and Roberts, he did not consider lying to be an unworthy way of getting there.

You see, they learned from Bork. Bork did NOT lie about his conservative activist agenda, and got Borked for it.

Yes, judicial philosophies change over time - he's been on the court for THREE FUCKING YEARS. Short of getting hit by lighting on the road to Damascus, that's hardly time enough to do a 180 on your core beliefs.

He. Is. A. Liar.
