Kathryn Ruemmler: Judicial System Continues to Fall Victim to Republican Obstruction



Despite Ms. Halligan's extraordinarily strong record, Republicans filibustered her nomination -- refusing to allow for a simple up-or-down vote.

Worse still, even consensus judicial nominees are being needlessly delayed by the Senate Republicans. There is a vacancy crisis in our courts, and it could be cut by more than a quarter if the Senate would simply confirm the nominees who already have been approved by the Senate Judiciary Committee. In addition to Ms. Halligan, 20 nominees have been approved by the Judiciary Committee after thorough consideration, but have been waiting -- many for months -- to be confirmed. Seventeen of these judicial nominees have been approved unanimously by the Judiciary Committee -- there is no stated opposition to their nominations, and no explanation has been provided for why they cannot be confirmed immediately. On average, President Obama's judicial nominees have waited five times as long as President Bush's judicial nominees to be confirmed after receiving Judiciary Committee approval.

Stop Obama by any means necessary partisan bullshit.

Gee, when Democrats did it it was called Democracy and Apple Pie.
We've seen Obama's judicial picks. They suck.

Like the racist Sotomayor..

How about czars like Van Jones??

All Obamafuck picks are racist fucks with a racist anti-American agenda.

Of course progressives ignore the hate speech the aforementioned racist Marxists spew everyday...

Its truly amazing how selective progressives are - they never take all the information into account when they're attempting to analyze - they only process what they're willing to accept and everything else is lie or doesn't exist..

Talk about having a blindfold on - progressives have mastered that and turned that into an art form.

Are you stupid? Tell me why it took 1300 pages of explanation in providing false testimony to congress.
