I will be voting against this nomination as should any Senator with a Social conscience.

Might I respectfully request those who disagree with my judicial philosophy to point out what part of it they find unsound?

I cannot respond to general attacks on my political views, because my political views are, in my opinion, completely irrelevant. I can only respond to objections to my judicial philosophy. While I cannot comment on any specific case, I would be perfectly happy to debate general constitutional questions.

Seeing as you all had more than enough time to ask questions of the nominee, I now call a vote on the nomination of Emsworth to the position of Associate Justice.

Just as a note, I appologize.  It was never my intent to try to shame anyone out of voting for Emsworth.

My vote won't influence the final result, and quite frankly, I don't know what would be the right one, so:

I abstain.

With a majority* of Senators voting in favour, Emsworth is confirmed as Associate Justice.

*All the Senators who were going to vote or who could vote have voted.
