That the Senate Republicans didnt bother fabricating a rationale to justify voting against her should reveal their fundamental dishonesty. They say qualifications matter. They dont. Qualifications arent the point. The who is. Amy Coney Barrett? Unqualified, yet shes one of us, so yes. Judge Jackson? Super qualified, yet shes not one of us, so no.
For all their complaining about moral relativism among liberals and other people they dont like, the GOPs current worldview is nothing but morally relative. Organizing principles such as democracy are good as long as they serve their ends. They are bad as soon as they dont.
