JUSTICE on TRIAL
Mollie Hemingway
Carrie Severino
Review by Roy Murry,
Author
Qualified people may
not care to become a member of the Supreme Court because of the way confirmation is run. Until reading Ms. Hemingway and Ms. Severino's history of
the Kavanaugh nomination and hearings, which reads like a suspense novel, I had
no idea of what transpired behind the scenes.
When the hearings were
on TV and in the news, I didn't pay attention and had problems of my own to resolve. So, Mr. Kavanaugh selection for
the court was not one of my priorities, and I do not indulge in watching any
news programs on cable.
I am sad to say this
description of how the public and the Congress securitize a candidate,
positively and negatively, is mind-boggling.
I consider myself intelligent, and I am wondering what happened to the
people of the USA, especially the ones they continue to put in the Senate.
The twist and turns in
this story is unbelievable. What happens to people that want to serve as an Associate Justice is appalling - all for political reasons.
I agree with the
authors, paraphrased: The process should be about qualifications, character, approach to judging and the role of the federal judiciary. Putting candidates
through pretentious bullshit that some Senators spout is not the way to conduct
oneself.
I commend the ladies
for bringing to light their view of what happened to Mr. Kavanaugh. Many items
to think about, and I will say again the prose read like a suspense novel.
So, friends, if you
care to read a thrilling novel, purchase: JUSTICE ON TRIAL https://amzn.to/373zWLw
