NEW YORK – In her undergraduate thesis at Princeton, President Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Elena Kagan, lamented the decline of socialism in the country as "sad" for those who still hope to "change America." Titled "To the Final Conflict: Socialism in New York City, 1900-1933," Kagan opined that infighting caused the decline of the early socialist movement. She asked why the "greatness" of socialism was not reemerging as a major political force. "In our own times, a coherent socialist movement is nowhere to be found in the United States. Americans are more likely to speak of a golden past than of a golden future, of capitalism's glories than of socialism's greatness," wrote Kagan, Obama's solicitor general. "Why, in a society by no means perfect, has a radical party never attained the status of a major political force? Why, in particular, did the socialist movement never become an alternative to the nation's established parties?" she asked. In the senior thesis, Kagan, who graduated from Princeton in 1981, addressed infighting in the socialist movement. "Through its own internal feuding, then, the SP [Socialist Party] exhausted itself forever and further reduced labor radicalism in New York to the position of marginality and insignificance from which it has never recovered. "The story is a sad but also a chastening one for those who, more than half a century after socialism's decline, still wish to change America," she wrote. "Radicals have often succumbed to the devastating bane of sectarianism; it is easier, after all, to fight one's fellows than it is to battle an entrenched and powerful foe. Yet if the history of Local New York shows anything, it is that American radicals cannot afford to become their own worst enemies. In unity lies their only hope." Her thesis was dedicated to her brother "whose involvement in radical causes led me to explore the history of American radicalism in the hope of clarifying my own political ideas." If confirmed, Kagan would give the high court three women justices for the first time. She would be the youngest member on the current court and the first justice in nearly four decades without any prior judicial experience. WND reported today Kagan has advocated for an increased presidential role in regulation, which, she conceded, would make such affairs more and more an extension of the president's own policy and political agenda. Kagan was nominated as U.S. solicitor general by Obama in January and confirmed by the Senate in March. She was a dean of Harvard Law School and previously served alongside Obama as a professor of law at the University of Chicago. A former clerk to Abner Mikva at the D.C. federal appeals court, Kagan was heavily involved in promoting the health-care policy of the Clinton administration. Obama praised her because while he said a "judge's job is to interpret the law, not make the law," she has evidenced a "keen understanding of the impact of the law on people's lives." The president said she has a "firm grasp on the nexus and boundaries between our three branches of government." But more importantly, she understands, "behind the law there are stories, stories of people's lives," Obama said. Kagan said the law is "endlessly interesting" and also "protects the most fundamental rights and freedoms."

Why tolerate evil? Squash evil.
Do unto others *before* they do onto you. She's a commie who should be caged and to those who want us to "tolerate" various points of view, eff them when it comes to views that are meant to destroy our Republic.
Who cares? What's Sarah doing today?
----------------------------------------------------------- I support her for the position of Associate justice of the SCOTUS. If she is homosexual, the fact is irrelevant. She is very very qualified and a pragmatist, not an activist with the propensity to legislate from the bench. You would well be lucky to ever be worthy of filling her panties, bitch.
So you support queers huh. No surprise there. What is surprising is that you support someone who is in favor if stripping people of their right to a trial. I could have swore you had the opposite view. I guess pervertedness trumps the constitution.
Sensible people care. She is utterly unqualified.
Homosexuals practice a normal variation of normal human sexual behavior. You are the pervert for denigrating people for such a trivial aspect of themselves.
Well of course she is Mike.....afterall....she combines not a day of judicial experience with not a day of actual litigation experience. How more proven a record of pragmatism and experience can one get?? Sheesh...the nerve of people to question this clearly well thought out choice......I say let's do let her get some apprentice miles under her as one-a-these Associate Supreme Court Justices before we move her on up the legal system eh? Snicker.....
Death to everybody who does not get outta my way. And the latest Eisteinian revelation from LF's resident Barack poodleboy...AKA Admiral Dwarf who has "shot at living things"...."Yeah, and Oswald was a right winger, too. He was... war posted on 2010-03-22 20:12:36
Nice method of combining misogynist comments while defending the human species anomalous proclivities of your paying public stall customers.

By the looks of her she does it all by herself with quite a bit left over! Sneakypete, have you ever been married? Said things you later regretted?
No, homos practice a perversion of human sexual behavior. Sneakypete, have you ever been married? Said things you later regretted?
No they are perverts and mentally ill. They need to be in mental hospitals. You're insane.
Hi, no time for flaming qweebs, so with apologies; to the bozo you go. You are just a waste of time with nothing constructive to say.
What is a "paying public stall?"
I know she had been nominated for a judge's slot under Clinton, and conserv- nutzies pocket vetoed her by stalling the confirmation. No matter, she has demonstrated a good legal mind and consensus skills. I actually would prefer a more liberal candidate, but she's do a good job.
Howdy Mike. Glad to see you posting here...
Never swear "allegiance" to anything other than the 'right to change your mind'!
Lets show some tolerance with this fat, useless water sac.
