Pelosi on Gorsuch: ‘If You Breathe Air, Drink Water, Eat Food, Take Medicine,’ He’s ‘Bad’

‘This is a very bad decision’
By Grabien Staff

PELOSI: “The president and his first appointment to the Court, and hopefully his only appointment to the court, has appointed someone who has come down on the side of corporate America versus class action suits, on securities fraud, he’s come down against employees’ rights, clean air, clean water, food safety, safety in medicine and the rest. If you care about that for your children, he’s not your guy.

Gabby Gifford’s group, the group for responsible solutions relating to gun safety, said that he comes down on the side of felons over gun safety. Hostile to women’s reproductive rights. Hobby Lobby case, for example. The list goes on and on. Criticized progressives for bringing cases that relate to LGBT progress, taking those cases to the court.

What saddens me the most as a mom and a grandmother, though, is his hostility towards children in school, children with autism. He has ruled that they don’t have the same rights under the IDEA that children — that they could reach their intellectual and social advancement under the law. He has said that doesn’t apply to them. He’s come down against them under the ADA, as well, and again under IDEA.

So it’s a very hostile appointment [indecipherable] fellow, well met, lovely family, I’m sure. But as far as your family is concerned, and all the — if you breathe air, drink water, eat food, take medicine, or in any other way interact with the courts, this is a very bad decision. Well outside the mainstream of American legal thought. Not committed to Supreme Court precedents, Supreme Court precedents.”
