Majority Approves of Garland Confirmation

[CrusaderFrank]

Will Dems actually run on a "we'll appoint judges who will repeal the Second Amendment" platform?

But they won't because they're lying pussies

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Yep, the senate should do their job, vote.
Then, continue their duties and REFUSE him.

Harry Reid said so himself in 2005

 

[SwimExpert]

Yep, the senate should do their job, vote.
Then, continue their duties and REFUSE him.

The Senate really needs to vote on Garland. Just go ahead and vote him down if they're not satisfied with the appointment. It would be much more respectable, and much better for the party.

 

[Katzndogz]

These are the same people who think Judge Judy is the chief justice and ****** Bulger is the nominee.

 

[Iceweasel]

I don't understand why the RW'ers, in a country where left/right is 50-50, think that they deserve another 80 - 20 rightwing judge.

Your math is fuzzy. The court lost a conservative judge, meaning a real judge, not an activist. Replacing him with anything but tilts the scale right now.

Plus the country is about 1/3rd left, 1/3rd right and 1/3 middle don't knowers.

yeah, if so, let us see precisely WHY, so we can hold politicians accountable accordingly.

 

[Iceweasel]

Americans were hoping the president they elected, along with the senators they elected would simply do their job!

it's this type of nonsense that makes people fed up with politics...

most Americans are too busy living their lives and doing their jobs...

our senators should do their ******* jobs, you know, like the dignified statesmen they were elected to be.

They are. They are standing in the way of the US slipping further into the leftist's shit stew.

Don't they usually give reasons for that? I know they did they turned him down for a state job..

The people voted for Obama knowing he picks justices. They are standing in the way of the people. That won't be good come election time.

 

[C_Clayton_Jones]

plus the majority elected obama in 2012, knowing that he might possibly have another SCOTUS vacancy to fill.

GOP has no idea how foolish they look painting themselves into this corner...

Correct.

With the understanding that the president's second term expires January 20, 2017.

yes

Obama won. So yes in the way of the people. People know what is right and fair. The repubs are deeply in the wrong on this one. Not good come election time.

Another bullshit poll that is irrelevant. Jillian, most irrelevant poster on here.

True.

Snag is there's no legitimate reason to not confirm the appointment, hence Senate Republicans' refusal to hold hearings and schedule a vote.

The Constitution does not lay out what a legitimate reason or illegitimate reason to confirm is. So it looks like a fail on your part.

Obama won.

The presidency, not emperor, king, etc.

People know what is right and fair

Looking at the candidates this year, I'm not so sure

yes, we are privy to the public hearings, which is what i'd like to see.

this grandstand obstructionism is sackless political brinkmanship...

 

[GHook93]

It would be more foolish to provide the most liberal SCOTUS on a silver spoon plate!
