Have you heard? She's gay. The American Pravda is rather silent regarding her sexual orientation. Good ole President Obama. He seems to get his kicks out of antagonizing Christians. Or is it God who Obama is eager to defy? How dare our Creator be God, when Obama so desperately wants that position.
Read about Obama's unqualified nominee, via Big Government:
Kagan: THIS Harriet Miers Will Get Confirmed
by Monica Crowley
"In 2005, Supreme Court Justice Sandra Day O’Connor announced her retirement. President Bush (with the oh-so-'helpful' suggestion from Democrat Harry Reid) then named White House Counsel Harriet Miers as his choice to replace her.
A firestorm erupted. Critics on the right and left complained that she had never served as a judge, had no judicial experience or paper trail from which to gauge her judicial philosophy and temperament, and that she was named strictly because she was a woman.
Her nomination did not survive the withering criticism, and she withdrew, to be ultimately replaced by Samuel Alito.
Fast forward to today. President Obama has just nominated Elena Kagan, the current Solicitor General, to replace John Paul Stevens on the Court. In many ways, Kagan mirrors Miers: a female legal eagle with no judicial experience, paper trail, or known guiding legal philosophy.
Miers’s nomination went down because fellow conservatives criticized those things. Don’t expect Kagan’s fellow liberals to attack her on the same basis. Conservatives were intellectually honest about what they saw as gaping holes in Miers’s qualifications. I guarantee that liberals will not openly question the same voids in Kagan’s experience. Conservatives raised legitimate issues about Miers; liberals will circle the wagons on Kagan.
Miers bit the dust, and she probably deserved to. Kagan will not bite the dust, although she probably deserves to as well."

A homosexual, never been a judge, liberal activist.
Hmmmmm
she won't let her leftwing homosexual activism influence her decisions.
Riiiiiiiiiight!
What a load of crap, again, still.
First off, the gay rumor is just that, a rumor. It's not being reported because it hasn't been substantiated AND because it doesn't make a difference. What bearing does anyone's sexuial orientation have on their ability to do the job as a Supreme Court Justice? If she was gay, does that make her automatically disqualified to do the job? Is it not enough for you Religious Rightwingnuts to harrass and persecute homosexuals, now you have to deny them job opportunities and turn them into second-class citizens? How does the very idea of having a gay justice "antagonize Christians"? Antagonize homophobes, sure, but Christians? Not likely.
The only reason the rightwingnuts brought down Harriet Miers is because she didn't have a paper trail that would confirm that she was rightwing enough for their taste. Kagan has been dean of Harvard Law and she's been Solictor General for a little over a year. Her qualifications are light years beyond Miers.
As for not being a judge before, it's not a job requirement. There have been SCOTUS justices who haven't ever been judges before... Earl Warren and William Rehnquist, most recently.
Is there ANY person Obama could nominate that rightwingnuts would find acceptable, other than a fellow rightwingnut? Didn't think so!
BTW, Monica Crowley has never married, either. Does that mean she's a lesbian? Does that mean we can start a rumor that she is gay? Does that mean she's not entitled to work for Faux Noise or the Washington Times? Does that mean she's a second classs citizen?
Her sexual orientation actually does not bother me as long as she doesn't get militant about it. My objection was that Obama probably put her at the top of his list BECAUSE she is gay.
However, her attitude toward the military is a concern, as is her support for socialism. We see its fruits in Greece.
No, I would never support any of Obama's nominees because he will always choose a radical who will want to rewrite our Constitution. That is indeed troubling.
LMAO Thanks for being honest, that nothing that Obama does or says will ever meet with your approval.
If nominating a gay to the Supreme Court was Obama's top priority, as you fallaciously claim, why didn't he nominate her for the first SCOTUS appointment that went to Sotomayor?
And what exactly IS Kagan's "attitude toward the military"? As far as I've read, she only expresed a concern about Don't Ask Don't Tell.
And her "support of socialism"?? Where the hell do you get THAT one from?

Glenn Beck? GLENN FREAKIN' BECK?? Are you joking? You cite Glenn Beck for accurate factual support???
The link you gave wasn't valid, but I did a search of Beck's site for Kagan. The only extended reference to Kagan and socialism seems to be, according to Beck at least, the fact that she wrote a master's thesis on the historical impact of socialism in New York. I wrote college papers on Nazism, Eusebius, and bar code scanning. Does that make me a techno anti-Semite pro-Semite? Beck and his producer evidently played the whole thing for laughs, wondering how Kagan could write about Socialism but not be interested in Socialism. A tough question for Beck to answer, undoubtedly, since he never got any sort of college degree and never had to write a research paper.
As for the "anti military" it's exactly what I said: she protested against the military's Don't Ask Don't Tell policy. That hardly qualifies as being anti-military.
You're a running joke, Ms. MooreLies.
Noe, BTW, today's denials from friend of Kagan: she's not gay.
But what difference does it make?
And why is it that Religious Rightwingnuts are the first to complain that gays are pushing their sexuality and agenda to the forefront ("Why can't they just keep it to themselves?") and they're also the first to scream, about the media not speculating on rumors of a politician's sexuality.
You can't have it both ways.
What, no pious Religious Rightwingnut response regarding your gay-bashing, Ms. ML?
DiogenASS: why don't the leftwingloons and the gays keep their perversion to themselves?
You might go both ways but you can't have it both ways peewee!
I don't know, AnonyMouse. Why is it that rightwingnuts like you cannot keep your utter stupidity to yourself?
Your idiocy is especially comical in this instance, since Ms. MooreLies was complaining about how Elena Kagan and the media were trying to HIDE her homosexuality. Which, as it turns out, is a lie unto itself, since it appears Ms. Kagan is not a lesbian, after all. (DAMN! Another great smear campaign down the drain!)
