Everything in life has Consequences

Those consequences could be adding judges to the court or ending the filibuster

Another consequence will be an end of cooperation with Republicans
Why not win the Senate and the White House and do it like Republicans did?

It can happen.

Then what about all those new precedents you lot set?

Like the judicial filibuster? No wait, that was you.
Ending the judicial filibuster? Oh, you again.

Why do you deliberately omit stuff?

Who ended the SCOTUS filibuster?

WHO blocked want was normally a pretty routine Presidential right to fill judicial vacancies in order to "save them" for their team (and no, I don't mean voting DOWN applicants).

WHO made up a new rule to prevent a president from filling a vacancy before an election?

and WHO reversed that rule 2 weeks before an election?

Those are MAJOR precedents and don't deny it. You know. If they weren't that made up rule would have held for 2020 instead of creating yet another precedent.

SO why shouldn't the Dems pack the court given YOUR behavior?
It's very simple. Win the Senate and the White House. Duh!

So you'll be fine with it if they win it and do that? There has already been a lot of whining from you guys about the possibility.

Bad ideas are still bad ideas.
You can't name anything they did out of order or against the constitutional process.

Yet, the Rs did something wrong.

You not liking it doesn't make it wrong.

Coyote also can't list a single time Democrats didn't confirm a Democrat scotus pick and waited for an election as she demands the Republicans do
Dems never refused to fill a seat in an election year (10 months away) and then filled a seat days before the election when it favored them
They never had the chance. If the roles were reversed there is no doubt Chucky would to exactly what Mitch is doing.............so grow the fuck up and accept reality for once in your pathetic life.

OK

And if the roles were reversed, Mitch would not hesitate to pack the court

Agree?
Fuck it then...........we are going to put a 1000 more in after we win the election...............

and change the laws via judicial activism and fuck you sideways forever.....................

BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY...........that is the mud fight you want now..............Reid proved it..

So fuck it then.......time to give you more of a taste of your own medicine.

Seriously? How old are you?
LOL

You poor thing, you just can't stop kazzing, can ya?

No, I didn't say Biden would have confirmed a Republican after the election had Bush lost. He wouldn't have.

According to Biden, they would have held hearings after the election. Doesn't mean they would have confirmed them, but he said they would hold them.
Yes Kaz lied, but he couldn't even find the issue. The issue is that RBG said she'd have retired in 2014 but McConnell wouldn't have confirmed an Obama nomination in 15. The Ghoul's seating Barrett pretty much proves that to anyone who actually thought RBG didn't understand McConnell.
If Obama had appointed her replacement in 2014, McConnell could not have stopped her being confirmed by the Democrat majority, in 2014.

But, now we have ACB and she's awesome! The majority of Americans supported her confirmation before the election. Win/Win/Win!

The "rules" are the Constitution and the Rules of the Senate. The Confirmation of the notorious ACB conforms with all of them. Further, her confirmation is supported by a majority of Americans. She is a superb choice.

Blumenthal is trying to bully the Court. And he looks like he gets his make up done by a mortician.

There are no such rules. Democrats no longer recognize the results of elections they lose. They need more practice at losing. Hopefully they get more opportunities to lose more gracefully.

You're right. RBG said she couldn't retire AFTER the 14 election and before the 16 election. And the issue is the McConnell rule: No opposition party will EVER fill a vacancy with two years to go before a presedential election. And it may be that no opposition party will fill ANY vacancy unless the sitting poutus party wins an election while the seat is open.
not a rule dude. but thanks for playing.
LOLOLOL

You brain-dead cons crack me up. In 1992, Biden says we should wait until after an upcoming election before holding confirmation hearings, and YOU call that the "Biden Rule"...

I gave it to you already. I don't care you don't like it, but the Biden Rule from '92 is the precedence.


... but when McConnell says a sitting president should not have any confirmation hearings for the last year of their term, you balk at that being referenced as the "McConnell Rule."

:lmao::lmao::lmao:

It's not the McConnell rule only because Biden created it. If McConnell had created it, it would be the McConnell rule. McConnell did use the Biden rule though.

Are you going to get angry and start throwing things and ranting like a four year old again?
Kazzer, it's not the same rule. One said hearings would be held after the election -- the other said no hearings would be held until the current president at that time was no longer in office.

Pretending to be ignorant of the English language has failed you.
 
People (not 'people' but dimocrap scum) misinterpret what happened under the stuttering clusterfuck.

He wasn't running for re-election. It wasn't right for him/xem/xer/it to nominate a SCOTUS Justice because he wouldn't have to answer for him.

Plus, the Senate had every right to not consider whatshisnuts.

Rober Bork, anyone? And yes, It was Hairless Hairy Reid who stopped the filibuster of Judges.
"It wasn't right for him/xem/xer/it to nominate a SCOTUS Justice because he wouldn't have to answer for him."

Bullshit. Like Impeached Trump was saying, he was elected to a four year term, not a three year term; so was Obama.

What cooperation commie? It has to start before it can end.

.
Democrats have always cooperated with Republicans, at least in their own view. Unfortunately, their view of cooperation is that Republicans give fifty percent while Democrats take fifty percent.

Democrats cooperated with George Bush
Republicans refused to cooperate with Obama and did not support a single piece of legislation

You dumbasses had a super majority in the first two years, and you squandered it with a do nothing President that was happy to tell us to get in the back of the bus....now you don’t like it...tough shit.
^^^ another idiot.

G'head, see if you could do what other rightards could not... quote Obama telling you to get in back of the bus...
LOL

So did you not bother to read your own source or did you not understand it? Where do you see anything about a bus in there...?

"And suddenly, as we’re about to get in the car, we feel this tap on our shoulder, and we look back, and who is it? It’s the Republicans. (Laughter.) And they say, “Excuse me, we’d like the keys back.” (Laughter.)
And we got to tell them, “I’m sorry, you can’t have the keys back. You don’t know how to drive.” (Applause.) You don’t know how to drive. If you want, you can ride with us, but you’ve got to ride in the backseat. (Laughter and applause.) We’re putting middle-class families in the front seat where they belong. (Applause.)
You ever notice when you want to go forward in your car, what do you do? You put it in “D.” If you want to go backwards, you put it in “R.” I don’t want to go backwards. Let’s go forward. (Applause.) Let’s go forward. I want to go forward."

... now the forum sees why Toddsterpatriot was too cowardly to quote Obama or to man up and just admit he was wrong. :mm:

Clearly, Obama was talking about the backseat of a car, not the back of a bus.

Which also leaves one wondering why eagle1462010 would thank your post when you were so glaringly wrong?

Car, bus, tomato, the sentiment is the same.
No, the sentiment is entirely different. "Back of the bus" refers to segregation; which is why black conservatives, making the same idiotic mistake you made, attacked Obama for saying Republicans would have to ride in the back of the bus, when he didn't.

9780374313227-in01.jpg

I see like Toddsterpatriot, you're just not man enough to admit you’re wrong.

Don’t give me that bull shit. As a truck driver, I remember hearing the other black drivers out there when Obama was elected, calling on the cb, saying “it was our turn now, crackers”, and “we are the masters now, bitches”...Everyone knew what that divisive POS Obama meant. AND we knew what his RuPaul wife meant when she said “For the first time in her life, she was proud of her country.”

You’re just astonished someone took your stupid challenge and posted it, when you were trying to deny he used it. And now you’re using semantics to weasel out of it.

You want racial peace? Then you’re going to have to own your part in the division.

Oh, back of the car.......how'd that work out for Obama?
Worked out pretty good. Obama was re-elected and by the time he left office, the economy was booming with a record setting 76 consecutive months of job growth and 83 months in the private sector; and a record high stock market.

12million more on food stamps, Anemic GDP, lowest first time home ownership in history, small business shuttered, manufacturing dead, etc...what a record.
 
Elections have consequences.

If Trump wins and Republicans retain control of the Senate we can pack the court and Dems won't oppose it?

They will need the House also

If Dems take all three, why should they not use their power?
Because it would be stupid and appear to the centrists to be a open move to grasp political power at any cost. That would cost the Democrats in the next election in 2022.

You think appointing Barrett doesn't look like an open move to grasp political power?

It looks like another HUGE win for president Trump to me! :eusa_dance:

What did Trump do?

McConnell blocked Obama from filling seats and then packed the courts with young Conservatives
Didn't block anything. Just didn't call a vote. His right.

And it will be the Democrat's right to add more members to the court.
That is a horrible idea, no natter which side does it.
I can’t stress that enough.

McConnell blocking all those Obama appointments and leaving them for Trump to fill was a horrible idea. Now that your party set the precedent, it's a little late for you to start whining about what your party set in motion.

McConnell blocking all those Obama appointments and leaving them for Trump to fill was a horrible idea.

How many did he block?

Now that your party set the precedent,

You think 2015-2016 was the first time a Senate controlled by an opposing party has left some
court seats open at the end of a President's term? LOL!
They just don’t seem to get it.
Then they take their perceived slight, and think “well then we will do this!” And plan to do something incredibly stupid (pack the court.
Despite me saying repeatedly that I would be opposed to anyone doing it, and telling them it’s an absolutely horrible road to go down, they keep responding like bitter little partisans.
Hey clowns, ITS A HORRIBLE IDEA NO MATTER WHO DOES IT!!!
it's a demofk threat and only a demofk threat. stop with the both party shit. The GOP never ever did what the demofks do. never ever. The demofks created the nuclear option in the Senate. Not the republicans. Ending filibustering was the demofks, not the republicans, and now they are threatening this. It is always a threat from the demofks. Alwys
Mitch turned the filibuster from a rarely used tool to a constant 60 vote requirement
That’s how it works when the majority party won’t compromise with the minority party. The filibuster was designed to force compromise rather than one party rule.
 
Everything in life has Consequences

Those consequences could be adding judges to the court or ending the filibuster

Another consequence will be an end of cooperation with Republicans

When were Democrats “cooperating” with Republicans in the past 4 years?

Hell with the past 4 years. When were the Democrats "cooperating" with Republicans in my lifetime?

I thought I’d keep it simple for the child...But you’re absolutely right. And they can’t stand it that Republicans finally are showing some backbone while using their own tactics.
