Gorsuch: a fascist for the Supreme Court

The Daily Mail looked into Gorsuch's student days. This is a cute quote from Kissinger he chose to go with his photo in some Columbia U. publication:



Unconstitutional...Supreme Court? Unconstitutional...Supreme Court?

But it gets better. Back in 'high school' (Georgetown Prep, that is), he founded a club he called 'Fascism Forever!' As a freshman--he was president for four years.

It's generally regarded that this is a battle the Dems should pass, save it for Ginsberg's replacement

I'm glad nobody is holding me responsible for/holding me to the beliefs I had back in High School.

It only becomes a problem when your beliefs haven't changed since high school.

To be fair, you aren't being considered for the Supremes.

That's you. I know a man who wanted to be a Methodist Minister in high school. Today, he's a Methodist Minister. For better or worse, some people do stick to the beliefs they held in high school.

See how that works?

I did a few things back in the day that I don't want to be held responsible for.

Fortunately the Statute of Limitations has tolled for all of them.
