The problem with the US Right right now is just that - for many, it is impossible to tell the difference between trolling and what they actually believe. Pissing of the liberals has become what stands for policy.



Yes. This does indeed increasingly seem to be their serious position. In the UK too it seems to be the case.
Except its not just progressives they want to piss off. They seem to have built this mental image of some kind of pink haired tumbler (that's where the left wing crazies are right? I just know it as a porn place) transgender (oh how obsessed they are with transgender people) radical leftist nutter who represents what the left believe (tm).

For derspiess, I'd guess abortion rights would be a big one.

Right to Life issues ;) are in the mix for sure, but they're not always at the top these days.  I wouldn't necessarily even consider it a litmus test for a USSC justice like I used to.

Yeah, right to life just took a backseat to "right to get sick and die" in the last two weeks.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Yeah I would agree. We are having other Constitutional issues coming up these days.

Yeah, some of that has been excessive.  Where do you currently stand on the abortion issue?

Ambivalent.  Church says "no", politics say "yes". I say I don't really care.

Tell me Biden will appoint conservative USSC justices. 

Good chance he will, conservatives like Merrick Garland, not activist radicals like Gorsuch or loyal soldier frat boys like Kavanaugh.

But its not really judicial conservatives you are looking for, no?

Merrick Garland would have been a much better Associate Justice from the standpoint of traditional Republicanism than is Brett Kavanaugh.

And ... got beat to the punch.

 :huh: Who gives a shit about the nomination at this point?
The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Totally would have if he were on my ballot. But he'll probably get my vote in the general.
