BUT THIS CONSTITUTIONAL SYSTEM
ONLY SUCCEEDS IF EACH BRANCH
RESPECTS ITS PROPER ROLE.
A GOOD JUDGE UNDERSTANDS IT’S
NOT THE COURT’S PLACE TO REWRITE
THE LAW AS IT SEES FIT.
IT’S NOT HIS OR HER PLACE TO LET
POLICY, PERSONAL OR MORAL
PRINCIPLES, DICTATE AN OUTCOME
OF A CASE.
WE ARE FORTUNATE JUDGE BARRETT’S
RECORD CLEARLY REFLECTS THIS
STANDARD.
SHE SAID, QUOTE, A JUDGE MUST
APPLY THE LAW AS WRITTEN.
JUDGES ARE NOT POLICYMAKERS, AND
THEY MUST BE RESOLUTE IN SETTING
ASIDE ANY POLICY VIEWS THAT THEY
MIGHT HOLD, END QUOTE.
JUDGE BARRETT’S SERVICE REFLECTS
AN EXCEPTIONAL INTELLECT PAIRED
WITH DEEP COMMITMENT TO THE RULE
OF LAW.
SO WE LOOK TO THOSE WHO KNOW HER
WELL.
SHE’S RECEIVED PRAISE ACROSS THE
LEGAL PROFESSION AND IDEOLOGICAL
SPECTRUM.
FORMER COLLEAGUES AT NOTRE DAME
DESCRIBE THE JUDGE AS, QUOTE,
BRILLIANT, INBUS TREES,
GRACIOUS, AND KIND AND THE
UTMOST INEGG AT THIS TIME EGGTEG
TEMPER.
PRIZED IN A JUDGE, END QUOTE.
SHE’S ALL -- SHE’S ALSO KNOWN AS, QUOTE, A GENEROUS MENTOR,
AS, QUOTE, A GENEROUS MENTOR,
AND SHE’S KNOWN FOR HER, QUOTE,
HER HUMILITY, GRACIOUSNESS,ABILI
AMONG DIFFERING VIEWS, END
QUOTE.
HER STUDENTS, QUOTE, EXPRESSED
AWE WITH THE POWER OF JUDGE
BARRETT’S INTELLECT, WITH HER
MASTERY AND ORGANIZATION OF
COMPLEX MATERIAL, AND WITH HER
PROFESSIONALISM, END OF QUOTE.
LEADERS OF MORE THAN 200
LIBERTY-SUPPORTING GROUPS ACROSS
THE COUNTRY SAY JUDGE BARRETT,
QUOTE, POSSESSES THE JUDICIAL
TEMPERAMENT AND PHILOSOPHY
NECESSARY AS A BULWARK FOR OUR
CONSTITUTION AND INSTITUTIONS OF
GOVERNMENT, END OF QUOTE.
24 STATE GOVERNORS DESCRIBE
JUDGE BARRETT AS, QUOTE, A WOMAN

THE "WALL STREET JOURNAL"
EDITORIAL BOARD SAYS, QUOTE,
PRESIDENT TRUMP’S NOMINATION OF
AMY CONEY BARRETT FOR THE
SUPREME COURT IS THE HIGHLIGHT
OF HIS PRESIDENCY, END OF QUOTE.
A PROMISE KEPT, A PROMISE MADE,
A PROMISE KEPT.
LIBERAL HARVARD LAW PROFESSOR
NOAH FELDMAN CALLED JUDGE
BARRETT, QUOTE, A PRINCIPAL
BRILLIANT LAWYER, A GENUINE GOOD
PERSON, HIGHLY QUALIFIED TO
SERVE ON THE SUPREME COURT.
THAT’S A PRETTY HIGH PRAISE, I
JUST -- I JUST RECITED FROM
OTHERS.
MOREOVER, JUDGE BARRETT IS A
TIRELESS MOTHER OF SEVEN.
FOR DECADES I’VE LED EFFORTS IN
THE SENATE TO IMPROVE FOSTER
CARE AND PROMOTE ADOPTION.
SO IT’S A PRIVILEGE FOR ME TO
WELCOME A JUSTICE LIKE THAT TO
THE SUPREME COURT.
TO SUM UP THE QUALIFICATIONS AND
CHARACTER, IMPECCABLE.
I SUSPECT THE MINORITY WILL TRY
TO WRESTLE UP BASELESS CLAIMS
AND SCARE TACTICS AS THEY’VE
DONE FOR DECADES, ANYTHING TO
DERAIL THE CONFIRMATION OF A
REPUBLICAN NOMINEE.
LATELY THE LEFT IS THREATENING
TO PACK THE SUPREME COURT IN
RETALIATION FOR THIS
CONFIRMATION PROCESS.
EVEN THE DEMOCRATS’ NOMINEE FOR
PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT
HAVE NOT RULED OUT SUCH
BLATANTLY PARTISAN POLICY GRABS.
REPUBLICANS ARE FOLLOWING THE
CONSTITUTION AND THE PRESIDENT.
IT SEEMS DEMOCRATS WOULD RATHER
JUST IGNORE BOTH.
THE LEFT IS ALSO SUGGESTING
JUDGE BARRETT’S CONFIRMATION
WOULD BE THE DEMISE OF THE
AFFORDABLE CARE ACT AND THE
PROTECTION FOR PRE-EXISTING
CONDITIONS.
THAT’S OUTRAGEOUS.
AS A MOTHER OF SEVEN, JUDGE
