One of the things that pisses me off?
With all of the things that politicians, right and left, could be pointing out during Kagan's confirmation, legitimate things, and instead? We hear BS arguments during hearings about her being "anti-military" or some right wing blogs writing stupid things about her pushing "sharia law".
But both sides seem to prefer bickering over stupid shit in the hopes that nobody will notice or have time to pay attention to the really big problems.
