I am Anthony Kennedy , a justice on the U.S supreme court and i was appointed by Ronald Reagan. I graduated from Harvard law school and went on to teach constitutional law. I may have some conservative views but i have also sided with decisions that focus on individual rights. I co-authored the court's majority opinion which voted on a woman's right to have an abortion. I wrote the court's decision in Romer, Governor of Colorado v. Evans , which voided an amendment to the Colorado state constitution that prohibited state and local governments from creating laws that would protect the rights of gays, lesbians and bisexuals. I am a pretty cool guy !
ReplyDeleteI am Samuel Alito, I am a 68 year old justice on the United States' Supreme Court and I am conservative. I attended Princeton University's Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs as well as Yale School of Law I am 100% sure I am well educated. Due to my experience, I was appointed by George W. Bush and I am honestly grateful for being able to serve as a justice interpreting the constitution. Sure, I may be conservative but I am for abortion. Who is to say women do not have the right to abortion? Well I do! I say they don't need a man's permission before getting an abortion. In fact, in the Supreme Court Case Planned Parenthood v. Casey, I was the only court justice on the platform to throw out the Pennsylvanian law that said women had to notify the man. Although I am very timid and soft spoken, I love my job. It is fascinating. I would be with Clarence Thomas because besides the fact that he is two years younger, he too is conservative and that is great. Also, I find Justice Ginsberg extremely adorable but she is too much of a liberal for me, sorry. I am a decent man. Why not take a chance?
ReplyDeleteI would love to be friends with you justice Samuel Alito. We work at the same place, why not get to know each other even more? I love that you're a conservative!!!!!
DeleteHello everyone my name is Samuel Alito. I am 68 years old and I love my job as a justice in the United States' Supreme Court. I am a very conservative man who does see the value in Abortion. I played an important role in the Court case between Planned Parenthood v. Casey where I was the only court justice that opposed and took action on the Pennsylvania law the required the consent of a male for a woman to get an abortion. Absolutely ridiculous I must say. I have been noticing Justice Thomas from across the room for quite some time now and I must say I would find it absolutely fascinating if we were to hang out and have a cup of Conservative tea. Yum
ReplyDeleteI am justice Anthony Kennedy. I was appointed to be a justice by our last president Ronald Reagan. As of now, I am 78 years old. I am a very conservative guy which means I have sort of a constructionist interpretation of the constitution. I participated in a very famous case called Roe vs. Wade regarding abortion, my vote was in favor of this act. By the way, I am also a Roman Catholic if that's of any importance to you. Even though I'm religious, I think women should have the right to practice abortion or not.I am a pretty interesting guy even though I'm old, I have much to tell....
ReplyDeleteI was not a justice, however - I would befriend justice Sonia Sottomayer and Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for their liberal and Democratic views. Though they both aren't extremely young, their views are quite youthful, liberal, and progressive.
