Madam President 2024
They didn't even wait until the body was cold. Disgusting!


Republicans Waited Only 9 Minutes after Scalia Died to make it Political


*snip*

But in the following two hours, those balls fell — on Grassley.

The conservative Twitterverse erupted with demands that the Senate refuse to confirm anybody nominated by President Obama to replace Scalia.

Then, at 6:41 p.m., not two hours after the San Antonio Express-News broke the news of Scalia’s death, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) declared that “this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”

The proverbial before-the-body-was-cold pronouncementsbegan nine minutes after the San Antonio paper tweeted Scalia’s death. Sean Davis of the right-wing publication the Federalist tweeted: “If Scalia has actually passed away, the Senate must refuse to confirm any justices in 2016.”

Four minutes later, Conn Carroll, a spokesman for Senate Judiciary Committee member Mike Lee (R-Utah), tweeted that chances were “less than zero” of an Obama nominee succeeding.

Guess the names Paul Wellstone and Gabrielle Giffords don't ring a bell........does it???
 
Has there been an autopsy yet? No? Huh.

6 days after he stood against the trillion environmental grift....he is dead.

Nothing to see here. He was fat and out of shape. Well, he did not die of a heart attack as they first said.

He died of "natural causes." Yeah, make sure to get the cause of death a little more ambiguous. Meanwhile whatever natural causes means, I am still not sure how they can say that for a fact. You know, since they cannot say until after an autopsy.

Meanwhile, the pathetic disgrace in chief is in a race to nominate a judge. He is not attending the funeral. It is going to play perfectly for the race baiting, race dividing dems.

But hey, things like this never happen. Nothing to see here.
 
Those spots on the bench became political they day after they were invented but the OP is an idiot that knows nothing of history. NOT one of the justices who first sat on the bench were full four year degree lawyers.

And Sarah Palin still hasn't apologized to Gabby Giffords for targeting her in her ads!

Like I said, Republicans are disgusting and immoral.

She has nothing to apologizer for. The kook never even seen her ad. He was obsessed with Giffords.
 
You have to love these limp-wristed liberals. Obama can't take one hour out of his golf trip to attend the funeral of a Supreme Court Justice and this is their response.

Not too surprising. He did the same thing to a General in the military and even his own grandmother.

It's your party that slaughters unborn babies and fucks bungholes. Sounds like you got it ass-backwards (no pun intended).

Palin targeted Giffords, and a mentally disturbed man thought Palin was talking to him, so he shot Giffords with a gun he should never have been allowed to own.

Like I said - they feel it...they understand that there is going to be an ass-whooping like none other this November. It will be like George McGovern's ass kicking way back then....they will then pretty much slink back under the rocks for the next 4-8 years.

But I will give them one thing...Obama is without doubt, the most narcissistic president this country has ever had to endure.

Yep. They decided immediately to deny the Senate a chance to exercise their Constitutional mandate to indicate their consent or non-consent with an up or down vote.

Then they went to work to find a post hoc rationalization for their hackery.

Ahh...poor baby. The Right had to put up with several years of Harry Reid. Ain't it a bitch that you lose now?
