Kagan and the Military Recruiters

Shayndi Raice has this short post on the WSJ Washington Wire blog on the military recruiter testimony.

"I find her actions unbecoming and certainly unbefitting a nominee to the Supreme Court," said Army National Guard Capt. Pete Hegseth, executive director of Vets for Freedom and a student at Harvard's Kennedy School of Government. The testimony came on the final day of Kagan's confirmation hearings.

A former student of Kagan's came to her defense. Army National Guard Captain Kurt White said the accusations against the nominee are "Unfair and untrue. "She went to such great lengths to show her respect and appreciation of the military and military veterans," said White, who is also the president of the Harvard Law Armed Forces Association.

In contrast to prior nominations, there still appear to be no freely available transcripts of the most of the hearings. The WaPo site has Day 1, FWIW.
