This is so irrelevant and inappropriate in every conceivable way. Trying to question a Supreme Court nominee over her record (or lack there of)is totally fair. Questioning a Supreme Court nominee over her sexuality is not.
I think that the Washington Post did the best job at crossing the line as made apparent by this Current TV clip:
Do you think that it is OK to childishly slander someone you don't agree with by rousing populist bigotry? (I understand that that question was asked in a way to produce only one question, but I don't care.) I think that this is the most extreme example of dirty politics and modern yellow journalism that I have seen in a while.
Do you think that Kagan's sexuality should be relevant to the debate? If yes, do you think that it was brought up in an appropriate way?
