NEW YORK – President Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court, Elena Kagan, argued certain forms of speech that promote "racial or gender inequality" could be "disappeared." In her few academic papers, Kagan evidences strong beliefs for court intervention in speech, going so far as to posit First Amendment speech should be weighed against "societal costs.” In her 1993 article "Regulation of Hate Speech and Pornography After R.A.V," for the University of Chicago Law Review, Kagan writes: "I take it as a given that we live in a society marred by racial and gender inequality, that certain forms of speech perpetuate and promote this inequality, and that the uncoerced disappearance of such speech would be cause for great elation." The hottest book in America is the one that exposes the real Obama! Get your autographed copy only from WND! In a 1996 paper, "Private Speech, Public Purpose: The Role of Governmental Motive in First Amendment Doctrine," Kagan argued it may be proper to suppress speech because it is offensive to society or to the government. That paper asserted First Amendment doctrine is comprised of "motives and … actions infested with them" and she goes so far as to claim that "First Amendment law is best understood and most readily explained as a kind of motive-hunting." (Story continues below) Kagan's name was also on a brief, United States V. Stevens, dug up by the Washington Examiner, stating: "Whether a given category of speech enjoys First Amendment protection depends upon a categorical balancing of the value of the speech against its societal costs." Kagan's academic writings are sparse – just nine articles, two of which are book reviews. Her stand on free speech could become a hot button issue as the Senate convenes to confirm her. If approved, 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 has reported that in her undergraduate thesis at Princeton, Kagan lamented the decline of socialism in the country as "sad" for those who still hope to "change America." WND also reported 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." With research by Brenda J. Elliott.
Poster Comment: I'd like to think that this "TURD" could be flushed. To suggest that this communist is deserving of a seat on the Supreme Court is tantamount to recommending Freddie Kruger as babysitter for your grand children. Frankly, I think the head nigger in charge is attempting to cause a riot.

Take the odds in this sick society. 1. Queer 2. Female 3. Jew 4. socialist That is a winning combination, sure winner.
I may be crazy as a loon ... but it will be a freezing cold day in hell before I ever contribute one "RED" cent to an Administration or government that would sit that kike fag on the Supreme Court. Lock me up ... shoot me ... but don't ever say I supported the takedown of my beloved country or countrymen.
"The smallest of frauds such as Santa Claus are perpetrated upon children by criminals in order that the largest of frauds such as the FEDERAL RESERVE may be had upon them as adults."
It would be nice to see the congress work overtime to check her history. SHe is just another "czar", only in the robes of the Supreme Court justices. Is sad commentary on who we have for president, who are his handlers, and who voted the scum in.
what???
Kevin MacDonald: The amazing thing is that Kagan is being framed as a conservative. But on the issues that really count — issues related to multiculturalism and free speech — Kagan is clearly on the left and touts American Jewry’s position in these areas. Kagan’s record strongly suggests that she would be quite willing to fashion her legal arguments to attain her Jewish goals. Jews Oppose 'Free Speech' Kagan’s Chicago Law school article, “Regulation of Hate Speech And Pornography” indicates someone who is seeking ways to circumscribe free speech in the interests of multicultural virtue: “We live in a society marred by racial and gender inequality. Certain forms of speech perpetuate and promote this inequality. The disappearance of such speech would be cause for great elation.” Kevin MacDonald: The organized Jewish community has a long record of opposing free speech related to multicultural issues. Kagan’s views fit well with the outlook of the organized Jewish community: “Every effort should be made to restrict hate speech within the current legal context and to do whatever possible to change that context so that such speech is outlawed.”
What - what ??? The nice jewish-socialist-communist-lesbian-butch referenced in the article is terribly saddened that we haven't yet become completely infected with the political STD (Socialist Transmitted Disease). What's to what about that ??? Hahahahaha !!! [Besides, I think we caught the shit from FDR].
