Alice Garcia: If Kagan is any example, senate should block Obama’s nominee

The Republican-controlled Senate should block the nomination to the Supreme Court justice. President Obama should wait until the new president is elected. He picked Elena Kagan, who never said she expected $20 million from a Saudi prince. The funds were to create a center for Isalamic Studies and teach Sharia Law in honor of Saudi Arabian Prince Alwaleed Bin Tala Abudlaziz. Kagan should have been disqualified. Her religion is Judaism.

Kagan opposed any military recruiter from being on the Harvard campus and supported censorship. Kagan’s brief in 2004 urging the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn the Solomon Amendment, a law that denies federal funding to any university that has a policy of not allowing military recruiters on campus. Kagan supports greater presidential power; does she have ties to Goldman Sachs?

She didn’t have any experience in a courtroom as a judge. Kagan will help Hillary Clinton get out of the crimes she has committed. Kagan was an associate White House counsel in the Clinton administration and deputy assistant to President Bill Clinton for domestic policy.

We don’t need another far-left liberal on the Supreme Court to try to dismantle the Constitution.

Editor’s note: The $20 million gift from Saudi Prince Alwaleed Bin Talal established a center for Islamic Studies at Harvard University, not Harvard Law School, where Kagan was dean. The center does not teach Sharia Law. He provided similar gifts to Georgetown University, American University of Beirut and Cambridge University in London.
