Dean Kagan had an even more direct connection to the Saudis’ Shariah-recruitment efforts at Harvard. She personally officiated in 2003 over the establishment of an “Islamic Finance Project” at the law school itself.

Pointing out that Elena Kagan has the least amount of judicial experience of any Supreme Court nominee in the last 50 years, Sen. Jeff Sessions and other leading Republicans are not ruling out a Senate filibuster to block the nomination.

Bork added that this lack of judicial maturity poses a “danger” for the country should Kagan be confirmed because she cannot have developed in academia the “prudence” needed to be an effective judge.

Kagan remained silent when a Saudi donor put up $20 million dollars to establish a Center for Islamic Studies that cleared the way for the promotion of Sharia Law – a Muslim theology that many believe embraces repression and sexism.

The new Supreme Court pick, Elena Kagan, has never been a judge. She’s never seen a courtroom from the bench. She’s never had a judge’s responsibilities. Elena Kagan has never instructed a jury or ruled on a point of law—any point of law. She’s never tried a criminal case, a civil case, or even a traffic case. She has not decided even one constitutional issue.

Two senior Republican senators criticized Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan on Thursday for memos she wrote as a young law clerk to Justice Thurgood Marshall, saying the papers suggest she lets politics dictate her legal decisions.

In a letter to Sen. Jeff Sessions, the ranking Republican on the Judiciary Committee Republican, Robert Bauer, counsel to Obama, implied the president may use executive privilege to hide some memos Elena Kagan wrote when she served in the Clinton White House.

She moved the nation’s premier law school away from requiring the study of constitutional law towards the study of the laws of foreign nations and international law.

By Wesley Pruden – The Constitution has “evolved” since then, of course, and now the liberal left, led by the Warren Court and its bastard progeny, has discovered all manner of “emanations” and “penumbra,” like an embedded Da Vinci code, that the Constitution doesn’t really mean what the words say it means. What part of “shall” can Mzz Kagan not understand?

There’s more evidence of hostility to gun rights on her part. Now, with the choice of Solicitor General Elena Kagan, President Obama is two for two in selecting Supreme Court nominees with an apparent strong hostility to the right of self-defense.
