It's Official. No Obama nominee

[bodecea]

President Obama should present his choice to the Senate soon...Then the Ball is in their court as to whether they do their job or not.

This makes the 2016 election one of the 3 most critical in US history. The next 100 years of our nation will be shaped by this election and historians will point to it as a major shift in our courts and foreign policy.

We must get the numbers out to vote Republican in 2016.

We hear that every 4 years.

He can take his choice and shove it up his islamic ass.

Nope.....you have no say in the matter. You are powerless even with your 214 IQ.

President Obama will do his job and appoint a Justice. Then it will be up to the Senate to do its job and either approve or reject that appointment. If they do nothing, then they fail to do their job as per the Constitution.

Please post the applicable constitutional article/section/paragraph that confirms your statement in regards to the Senate.

Kindly note post #32...where I copy the pertinent paragraph in the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 2.

Obama burned all his bridges with Republicans on the day he told them that "elections have consequences" and "I won" three days after his inauguration.

Every other President has been able to work with the other party to make things happen, even when the opposing party had the majority.

Obama can't do that, which is why he became a lame duck in 2010 when Republicans won the majority in Congress.

So...you have a problem with President Obama telling the truth? Elections DO have consequences and he DID win.......twice.

Sorry, the Truth burns so much.

You first!

You on drugs? I made no statement in regards to the Senate in response to bodecea's mistatement, but merely asked for her constitutional confirmation.

Can you produce specific documents or where in the constitution where it states that Congress has the authority to hinder the president's nominee and I don't mean a reading in of something the constitution doesn't say but you wish it did

Until you can do that you have no credible argument.

 

[jknowgood]

I would not draw any conclusions at this point.

The Republican Senate can make this claim until they're blue in the face, but anyone trusting them would be foolish.
I'm not going to assume anything until Obama is actually out of office.

I would agree with you normally. In this case though the REP Senators have put their political careers on the line. And they all know it.
None of them is going to cave now.
The GOP backroom boys have guaranteed that if any of them lose their seat as a result of voting against even considering an Obama nominee that Senator will be financially and politically well taken care of. They are in a no-lose situation.

I look forward to the Democrats putting up Political Ads showing the U.S. Constitution and pointing out that the Republican Senators are not doing the job they were elected to do. If they don't like a President Obama appointment, vote him/her down. Then they ARE doing their job. Everyone remember the last time the Republicans shut down the Government?

Then the republicans can show an ad showing in 92 Biden saying what republicans ar saying.

I think this is a big mistake.

On the St. Phineas Theory it's clear that there should be hearings on any candidate Our Kenyan Emperor proposes. Excruciatingly long hearings held live on prime-time TV with lots of video and a parade of victims. This is a kabuki opportunity lost!

You know the meat puppet faggot is going to choose a fellow traveler, not someone even moderately acceptable to anyone who isn't a barking, foaming at the mouth moonbat.

It's fine by me if the committee sits on the nominee, has a long boring hearing and rejects whatever insane pervert was nominated 6 months later.

Do you have a clue as to what's being discussed ?

You really are one of the most ignorant assholes on any forum I've been on.
Obama has fucking ZERO legal power to "appoint" a Justice!
Use the wrong word all you want.
Obama can ONLY NOMINATE a Justice. That's it. Nothing more.
You live in some sort of alternate reality. But thanks for giving everyone a laugh at your expense again.

He most certainly does appoint a Justice....but that Justice must be approved by the Senate. The President appoints, the Senate approves.

Here is the key paragraph in the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section. 2.

He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall APPOINT (my emphasis) Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, JUDGES OF THE SUPREME COURT (my emphasis), and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law; but the Congress may, by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments.


So, you were saying something about "most ignorant assholes"?

Somewhere in life you were listed as a wasted cum shot. Okay here goes idiot. Using YOUR source.

1,"he shall nominate", That would be step one idiot.
2, "provided two thirds of the Senators present concur" That would be step TWO idiot.

NO ONE is even thought of as "Appointed" UNTIL steps one AND two have been met idiot.

 

[Mac1958]

Assuming this is true, does this decision by the Senate preclude Obama from nominating someone anyway?
.

 

[PaintMyHouse]

That's right. The Senate has just officially ruled they will not even consider any Obama SCJ nominee.
This means President Trump and his REP majority Senate will be able to choose, during President Trump's two terms about 5-6 REP SCJ's.
This will fundamentally affect the social direction of America for decades!
To GOD be the praise!
GOP Judiciary: No hearing on Obama court nominee
How did your "phone and pen" work out for you asshole?
If you hadn't acted like the piece of shit you are you may have had more cooperation across the aisle.
Hillary just got news today a judge has questioned her motive for having a secret private server hidden in her bathroom closet.
I give Hillary a couple of weeks before she drops out for 'health reasons'. Leaving Bernie to go against Trump.
Blame Debbie. She was the one who told Biden and Warren to piss off. "Theirs services were not required".

Perfectly happy to take the Senate back, and then win the election. Since the GOP won't govern, the Dems will have to.

As usual you have no evidence to backup your bullshit.

You bend him over. Hossfly and I can toss for who shoves it up his ass.

I'll take that as a no you have no evidence.
Again proving you are not man enough to do it.

Liberals simply parrot words, they have no more concept of the meaning of the word "truth" than a real parrot would. These are literally the dumbest, most deliberately ignorant motherfuckers that have lived on the planet since the last Hitler voter died.

US Constitution Article 11 Section 2:

Obama can't "appoint" any SCJ unless the Senate tells him he can. That's like claiming you can drive the fucking car but not until your father hands you the keys.
Obama has no fucking power to unilaterally 'appoint' a SCJ. So stop putting up ignorant posts.
They only reinforce how low an opinion members here have of you.

No, he will nominate a new justice. No where does he have the authority to appoint a new justice. Don't get carried away.

Recess appointments...

It's interesting that liberals suddenly care about the Constitution after we've spent that last seven years watching Obama trash the Constitution, with liberals cheering him on the entire way.

so no Republican president has been an arrogant prick?
