Sen. Chuck Grassley: The truth about Schumer, Democrats and Gorsuch

It was just a year ago when we first began hearing chants of “we need nine,” from former President Obama and Vice President Biden, Senate Democrats and their special interest groups.

To many of us, it appeared to be a simple case of amnesia. They obviously had simply forgotten that both Senator Reid and Senator Schumer had declared that George W. Bush would get no Supreme Court nominees through the Democratic Senate more than 18 months before the end of his term.

Or, even in 1992 when then-Senator Biden made clear his intentions in a long, detailed speech on the Senate floor outlining the reasons why the Senate wouldn’t consider a Supreme Court nominee of George H.W. Bush in his final year.

Yep....seems the left wing can't remembers it's own rules.

Thanks Grassley for reminding us what a pack of liars the left wing has turned out to be.

From the article:

Over the course of the past year I said that if I remained chairman of the Judiciary Committee in 2017, we’d move forward with a hearing for the Supreme Court nominee regardless of who was elected president.

To the surprise of many Senate Democrats, in November the American people elected Donald Trump. Suddenly we need nine became a hypocritical eight is enough, just like it was in 1992 and 2007.

From the article:

Anybody watching the nomination hearing for Judge Gorsuch before the Senate Judiciary Committee witnessed a brilliant presentation showcasing his command of the law, his record of independence, his strong sense of humility, and his focus on following the Constitution instead of prejudging cases or promising results.

From beginning to end, partisans and non-partisans alike sang his praises. It started the first day of the hearing when President Obama’s former Solicitor General introduced Judge Gorsuch. For anybody questioning this nominee’s credentials, Democrat or Republican, I’d invite them to read General Neal Katyal’s introduction. It showed genuine appreciation for Judge Gorsuch himself and his approach to the law.

Judge Gorsuch’s testimony, and the testimony of witnesses who actually know him, creates a dilemma for anybody desperately searching for a reason to vote oppose his nomination. Because if you’re voting on qualifications and not politics, it’s an easy yes.

*******************

That point seems lost on everyone.

Gorsuch is ten times more qualified that Kagen or Sotomeyer.....but they were confirmed.

Thanks Chuck Grassley for pointing out that Chuck Schumer is a whinny crybaby who cares little for the country that gives him the right to stand at a podium and behave like a complete moron.
 
The Dems are losing at a massive clip. Over a thousand seats on the state and federal level over the last 8 years. 2018 could be even rougher. This is what happens when you become this loonbatty.

They are.

What is amazing is that can't figure out why.

They thought 2016 was in the bag. And they got beat....by Trump.

No wonder they've gone insane.
