That's why selections require confirmation...
Actually, "selections" or nominations, REQUIRE for the senate to hold a hearing....which the GOP-led senate has refused to even do that........GOP'ers in the senate will pay for that mistake.:
LINK!
The Senate can't Advise and Consent if they refuse to do so. It's part of their job. Case closed."[The President] 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 Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, 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."Right, we wouldn't want them to say, do their fucking job per the Constitution or anything! Fucking Nazis.The Senate Should Refuse To Confirm All Of Clinton’s Judicial Nominees
Indeed I agree! Don't give an inch! They want it make them bleed for it.
Using the text found in the constitution, please explain "their fucking job" as to any obligation to advise and consent.
"[The President] 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 Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, 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."
Indeed, he has the power by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, and only with that.
As is the case with treaty ratifications and other officer nominations, they are not obligated to provide it.
Nor can the president invest such power in himself.
If you continue to disagree, provide the text requested earlier.
Why didn't they include the 'nuclear option' for Supreme Court nominations when they changed the filibuster rule the first time?

Sorry, NO link since, constitutionally, there is no mandaate for a senator to do his or her job (too bad)...HOWEVER, you judge what should be done with an elected official who refuses to do anything but sit with two thumbs up their ass.

Well they aren't advising and they aren't consenting which means, dummy, they aren't doing what they fucking get paid for!The Senate can't Advise and Consent if they refuse to do so."[The President] 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 Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, Judges of the Supreme Court, 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."Right, we wouldn't want them to say, do their fucking job per the Constitution or anything!

Duh.

Indeed. An obligation to provide it is not.
Well, to keep totalitarianism from dismantling the Constitution, I judge they should be kept in their seats with their thumbs up their asses.
Typical Nazi baby, taking his ball and going home to mommy because he can't have it his way.Well, to keep totalitarianism from dismantling the Constitution, I judge they should be kept in their seats with their thumbs up their asses.
In other words, election DON'T matter, and the functionality of the Senate is no longer needed.
Would a despot suit best your political bent???
God I hope so. Let's get moving again before we die in our sleep without even trying.This is a moot argument as democrats will take the Senate .. even with a 50-50 split .. then democrats will do what they want to do and republicans will be reduced to spectators.
Notorious RBG! Lol. I got all her albums.During Hillary's first term --- because there is no way in the world she loses to the orange buffoon --- a Democratically controlled Senate will confirm Hllary's replacement for Scalia; then she gets two more justices confirmed by the Democratically controlled Senate after both Thomas and Alito drop dead in the first year of her term; then, before her first term is up, Notorious RBG will decide to step down and Hillary gets another justice confirmed by the Democratically controlled Senate. SCOTUS make up by the end of her first term: 7 - 2A simple majority in the senate (which democrats will almost surely have with the VP's vote) CAN change the rules and bring up the so-called "nuclear option" to fill Scalia's vacancy....and perhaps 2 or more justices' positions......
To the winners belong the spoils, and McConnell will long regret not even holding a hearing for Garland.
That would be a successful first term right there.
The Senate Should Refuse To Confirm All Of Clinton’s Judicial Nominees
Indeed I agree! Don't give an inch! They want it make them bleed for it.
Of course you are assuming the senate will still be controlled by the Reps. I don't know if the polls are accurate, but if they are, her nominees may walk thru confirmation.
The Senate still requires 60 votes to end cloture so a filibuster by ONE Senator can stop any confirmation.

Reps won't do it, they fear the political fallout, and with most of the media behind the Dems they would get murdered in the press. If they couldn't stand up to a bunch of BO's executive orders when they had a majority in both houses, what makes you think they will do it when in the minority?

They didn't fear the political fallout of leaving a Supreme Court seat vacant for a year

Geesh dude, you don't see the difference between delaying until the election is over for a year and leaving a seat vacant for a full presidential term? Is this really that hard?

Once they have gone this far...what is their hurry?
If you are willing to stonewall for one quarter of a Presidents term, why not a full term?
sure. great. We'll replace American constitutional government with a Nazi dictatorship. How'd that work out in 1945?Leadership principle? Whose leadership and what kind of voice would the citizens have? Have you ever studied revolutionary results and causes given a monolithic government?Oh its not just because of that. I think the entire idea of a democracy is a joke and doesn't work. Like I said I want a system based on the leadership principle. As far as guns go for NOW you can own a gun. All it takes is a reversal of 1 decision and there goes your ability to own a gun because they just said the 2nd amendment DOES NOT guarantee the individual right to own a weapon.Why should I regard the opinion of someone who is blatantly anti-constitution with anything like respect or validity? You would dispense with the constitution just so you can have a gun? Do you know that under the constitution you can have a gun?They won't. Even if they do they won't have a vast majority it will literally be a 1 vote leadWe'll see...
This isn't about me but yes I would burn the constitution. I am in favor of the leadership principle. Your crying aside that was fucking hilarious! WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA they won't allow us to nominate an anti gun nut justice WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAWhy do you hate the constitutional process so much? Would you like to ball up the constitution and toss it in the trash?
