I'm not saying her appointment was illegal or anything. Fortunately for scumbags like Obama and Kagan the Constitution doesn't discriminate based on political views.

However, for those of you who thinks this is a wash, keep this in mind...Kagan is fairly young and will be on the bench for probably 25 to 35 years.

Furthermore, while she may have been appointed according to Constitutional rules, it's ironic that she will, judging by her past anyway, not be really diligent in exercising her duties according to that same Constitution.

This is hardly a wash, simply one liberal for another. That's like saying JFK and Obama are the same because they're both democrats.
