Gorsuch's mom,   now  named in comments,  graduated from U of Colorado at 19 and was in law school at 19.  It appears she was an academic force.  Gorsuch's father was a US Olympic Team skier,  with an outdoor clothing business.   They divorced,  she remarried.  Judge Gorsuch was a student at Georgetown Prep,  and I would guess because Mom was at EPA.  His "smart" quotient in the gene pool is huge.   Attacking him on who his mother was is so Eugene,  or is that "eugenic?"  

South Eugene High School produced two Oregon governors:  Goldschmidt and Kitzhaber.  Does that brand every graduate from SEHS  a  potential pedophile and a potential conflict of interests elected official?   Hardly.  But that is what some are doing with Judge Gorsuch's record by inference to his mother's behaviors when he was a teenager.  Do we discuss Wyden's UO law school degree that didn't prepare him to pass the Oregon bar he failed three times?  Is that his mother's fault?
