8 Reasons The Senate Must Reject Jeff Sessions

It is fairly well known that back in 1983, Jeff Sessions raped a young boy. Disgusting. This alone should disqualify him.

But Barnie Frank said he liked it and invited Jeff and a few friends to "Come again, and I really mean it"
 
He opposes states legalizing marijuana, hence, he opposes the Tenth Amendment. He opposes reforms to civil asset forfeiture laws, hence, he opposes the Fourth Amendment. Those two reasons alone should disqualify him.

Oh, fuck. Maybe Session is not the right man for the job.

Does that include edibles?
 
I think Attorney General Jeff Sessions sounds awesome.

I'm sure you do!
What did Obama say? You can come a long for the ride, but you will have to sit in the back. Your party is out of power, so your opinion means nothing.

Well, sparky, the "opposition" always means something. Didn't Republicans prove that to you?
Democrats have no power. People spoke out against Obama's policies. Also Obama gave Trump powers a president shouldn't have, with your blessing.

Really? Is that why Hillary won the popular vote by 3 million votes?

The positions and policies he has supported do not uplift America’s shared values of love, justice and mercy.

On Capitol Hill this week, the Senate Judiciary Committee will hold confirmation hearings to consider the first of Donald Trump’s cabinet nominations, Sen. Jefferson B. Sessions of Alabama. 26 years ago, this same committee denied Sessions a recommendation for the federal bench. “Most of Reagan’s judicial appointments have been people with impressive credentials regardless of their ideologies,” the editors of the LA Times wrote. “Sessions is a different story.”

The Senate refused to confirm Sessions in 1986 because the testimony they heard suggested that he sided with his namesake, Jefferson Davis, over America’s commitment to equal protection under the law.

A quarter century later, the Senate must decide if Sessions has changed.

Senator Sessions’ record suggests a remarkable consistency in support of policies that contradict and subvert the Reconstruction amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
If the photo of Senator Sessions greeting Donald Trump’s “thank you” tour in Mobile, Alabama, alongside Southern belles in hoop skirts isn’t enough to make clear what past greatness his support of Trump hearkens back to, then the nation should listen to the question of one civil rights veteran from Alabama who asked, in the language of Scripture, “Can a leopard change his spots?”

Senator Sessions’ record suggests a remarkable consistency in support of policies that contradict and subvert the Reconstruction amendments to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantee citizenship, equal protection under the law, and the ballot to all Americans.

Indeed. The record is clear. Here are eight reasons why the Senate must reject Sessions.

If Jefferson B. Sessions were confirmed by the Senate in 2017, we would have have an attorney general who, as a senator:
  1. Applauded the Supreme Court’s 2013 Shelby County v. Holder decision, which gutted key provisions of the Voting Rights Act of 1865.
  2. Voted against reauthorizing the Violence Against Women Act.
  3. Voted yes on a constitutional ban of same-sex marriage.
  4. Opposed the repeal of “don’t ask, don’t tell.”
  5. Opposed the Matthew Shepard and James Byrd Jr. Hate Crimes Prevention Act.
  6. Voted to ease restrictions on wiretapping of cell-phones.
  7. Voted to abolish a program that helps businesses owned by women and minorities compete for federally funded transportation projects.
  8. Opposed comprehensive immigration reform and nearly every immigration bill that has come before the Senate over the past two decades, including voting against a Senate resolution affirming that the United States must not bar people from the country because of their religion.

How does that, in any way, address his statement.

She could have won by 10 million votes and:

1. Trump would be president.
2. The GOP would own the senate
3. The GOP would own the house.
4. The GOP will soon appoint 2 or 3 members of SCOTUS (to offset the leftwing idiots who currently disgrace the bench).
 
From the OP:

When those who wield the power of the state deprive the people of these freedoms, citizens in general and the U.S. Department of Justice in particular must resist their injustice and hold them accountable. Senator Sessions is clearly unfit for the role of Attorney General.

After Holder, Sessions looks like a straight-laced saint.
