Confirmation Proclamation

I have always looked on in wonder about how pointless the Judiciary Confirmation process is, considering that Supreme Court nominees get confirmed pretty much regardless of what they say.

Howevaaaaah, it seems that they do sometimes catch these judicial creatures making statements that they soon violate; in this case the wise Latina doublespeak between DC vs Heller and McDonald vs Chicago.

Not that that changes anything; it's all one gigantic fiction that we keep on watching for some reason, like we expect a drastically different outcome despite knowing damn well what's gonna happen. Old Yeller doesn't live in the end, and judges are human and have opinions.

Weird.
