There are many reasons why Elena Kagan should not be confirmed to sit as a Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. It is into the hands of these few nine people that we entrust the future of our country. It is their minds, their common sense or lack thereof, and most importantly, their reverence for and understanding of the Constitution of our great nation that we all must rely upon to keep our government from turning us into a banana republic.
Here, eloquently and succinctly stated by Captain Pete Hegseth, an Iraq war veteran, is probably the best, and really, the only reason needed to send her home and look for someone else.

Or how about the time in the Clinton administration, when the courts were trying to make a decision about killing babies as they slid out of the birth canal (partial birth abortion) and they wanted a purely scientific opinion on the procedure. Kagan didn’t like the results, predicting it would be a “disaster” and inserted her own commentary. It was presented to the court as a scientific opinion and it is what has been relied upon for rulings about this procedure ever since. I believe Senator Hatch was the one who queried her about it..her answers were vague.
