Newt Gingrich Calls For Obama To Withdraw Kagan Nomination
If it’s up to Newt Gringrich the Elena Kagan confirmation process will not be a smooth one. On Fox News Sunday this morning, Gingrich took the right’s main opposition to Kagan — namely that she tried to restrict military recruiters’ access to Harvard campus based on her opposition to DADT — one step further, calling for President Obama to withdraw Kagan’s nomination.
The very fact that she lead the effort which was repudiated unanimously by the Supreme Court, to block the American military from Harvard Law School…we’re in two wars and I see no reason why you would appoint an anti-military Supreme Court justice, or why you would nominate and anti-military Supreme Court justice, or why you would confirm an anti-military Supreme Court justice.
Even Chris Wallace seem less than convinced by Newt’s opposition to Kagan: “Do you think you will really get a better nominee [than Kagan] out of Obama?” Newt wasn’t eager to answer that one. Of course, I’m not sure Newt is terribly interested in much here beyond being the person to generate the opposition headline, such as it is. Video of the segment below.
