I've sat over the past day or two....watching about two hours of 'interviewing' for Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson, for the empty seat on the Supreme Court.
When the question came up....for her to define a woman.....she just sat there.
It was like a 4th grade kid being asked to explain nuclear science or asking about the uniformity of nature (you'd have to be a first year college student to render a decent wording on that).
Eventually, she gave no real explanation.
To be honest.....there's probably six additional things that she was asked about in that period I watched.....where you were left with a mysterious 'look' on her face (like aliens had landed in Miami).
I eventually turned the TV off.
I'm left with three explanations:
1. She is dumber than a Spongebob Squarepants.
2. She was told to just act dumb to all Republican questions.
3. She is so vastly superior on intelligence, that she can't really define a woman without going into a 1,500 word answer which discusses ninety different traits of women, and fourteen different hormone 'things'.
My gut feeling? It would be amazing to wake up in 2028, and have two of the Justices admit in some confidential situation that 'KBJ' is marginally thinking at the 3rd grade level.
I don't think it really matters though....to have a dimwit or two on the Supreme Court. It wouldn't even bother me if you pushed up a American Hispanic midget with an IQ of 88....to be a Justice. It's not like they are on some NCAA football team, running the Pentagon, designing Tesla cars, or running a state prison in Oklahoma.
Plus you have to admit this....if you stopped 100 people to ask them to define a woman....right off the bat....all the guys would respond with their hands....two boobs. Maybe it's just NOT important to define women.
