Best quotes on the entire intertube universe come from this guy. This one found at AOSHQ.
"It's only Monday," [Republican Louisiana Sen. John] Kennedy quipped. "So far, Judge Barrett has been called a religious bigot, a racist, an antifeminist, anti-public health. Her opponents haven't gotten around yet to calling her an alien lizard person, but it'll come. Before it's over with, I'm afraid, that they will accuse her of drowning little newborn puppies."
"That's not what this is all about though, and I think almost all of my Democratic colleagues know that none of these things are true," he continued. "This is what they're upset about. Judge Barrett is a Constitutionalist, which means she's a Madisonian, which means she believes in the separation of powers, which means she believes that federal judges are not politicians in robes, which means she believes that the United States Supreme Court is not supposed to be a mini Congress, which means that she believes that federal judges are not supposed to try to rewrite the Constitution every other Thursday to advance a political or social agenda that they can't get by the voters, which means that she believes that the law is not supposed to be politics practiced a different way."
