OBAMA'S SCOTUS SELECTION CRITERIA: EMPATHY FOR THE DEVIL

EMPATHY.

THAT'S WHAT OBAMA SAYS HE'S LOOKING FOR - A NOMINEE FOR JUSTICE WHO HAS EMPATHY.

BUT FOR WHOM?

• EMPATHY BOTH SIDES OF WHAT IS ALMOST ALWAYS A LONG ARDUOUS AND DIFFICULT CASE - (FOR ALMOST ALL THE CASES WHICH COME BEFORE THE HIGHEST COURT IN THE LAND ARE LONG AND ARDUOUS!)!??!

• OR EMPATHY FOR JUST ONE SIDE - THE SIDE OBAMA'S IDEOLOGY FAVORS!?!?

• OBAMA'S CRITERIA ARE RIGHT OUR OF ALICE IN WONDERLAND: "VERDICT FIRST, TRIAL LATER".

• OR ALICE IN WONDERLAND MEETS SAUL ALINSKY.

• IF OBAMA GETS AWAY WITH THIS - AND IT APPEARS HE WILL, (UNLESS HE AND HIS TEAM OF SCREENERS MAKE ANOTHER BONEHEAD PICK - LIKE GEITHNER/DASCHLE ET AL), THEN HE WILL HAVE ENSHRINED INJUSTICE TO THE HIGH COURT.

• THE SCALES OF JUSTICE WILL BE TIPPED TO ONE SIDE OVER ANOTHER - BEFORE ANY CASE HAS EVER BEEN HEARD. LET ALONE APPEALED.

WHEN INJUSTICE RULES, ONLY THE DEVIL BENIFITS.

A BILL-MAHER WRITER/HUFFPO CONTRIBUTOR THINK EMPATHY = MERCY AND IS A GOOD THING.

I ASK: BUT MERCY FOR WHO, THE VICTIM OR THE PERP?

I ASK: WHAT EVER HAPPENED TO THE IDEA OF "THE RULE OF LAW" AND THE CONCEPT THAT "JUSTICE IS BLIND"ON THE LEFT!?

AND I ASK: WHY DON'T THEY DESIRE A SIMILAR MERCY FOR A FETUS IN THE FIRST 22 WEEKS!?
