Nowadays it is respectable and expected to oppose nominees on ideological grounds rather than simply bow to the will of the President. This is particularly true of those whose views are truly well outside the legal and popular mainstream.
Ginsberg was and is quite "liberal" in her views, but she is and was nowhere near as far off-center as Judge Brown. (Remember too, that we're talking of the politics of 12 years ago in the case of Ginsburg.) For you to accused JRBs detractors of racism is the purest nonsense.

I disagree. Ginsburg was as far left as you can get in mainstream American politics. JRB is no more right than at least 22% of the current Court and possibly 33% incl. Roberts. Her educational experience and professional background as a jurist are impeccable. There is no reason she should not be approved, other than blatant partisan politics. Fortunately I don't think the dimwits have the votes. The wrath of the babyjesi is mighty.
