Reply #11: Enough of the "Greenwald stuff", this pick is sending a message.

If you disregard an argument because of it's source, you are committing a logical error. Instead of considering the source, consider the argument. Just because you don't like him doesn't mean he is wrong.

The message is Obama is sending us is that his political ideas are centered in what used to be the center of the Republican party, but alas in now considered liberal.

Obama is clearly to the right of most of us true liberals in his political thought. I won't go through the laundry list of actions that many of us here look upon with unease, but if Kagan turns out to move the court rightward even just a bit, it will be a tough 30 years... And that is Obama's choice.

That is only 30 more years to cement the status quo or worse. 30 more years...
