The Dems may not like what the GOP Senators consider "disqualifying" going forward

[kyzr]

After the dems put up such a circus against Kavanaugh, one of the most qualified candidates in history, what repercussions can the dems expect from the GOP going forward. IMHO any "sexual misconduct" (including bringing the big dog out) is one, any "juvenile transgression" (theft, underage drinking, etc.), any drug use, including marijuana, any DUI, any PFA, any felony, etc.

I'm sure the FBI or Senate investigators could find something disqualifying on any and all democrat nominees going forward. If they can even find anyone to run that gauntlet.

Ask Garland why he was disqualified

Ask Garland why he was disqualified

He was?

Don't remember reading anything about him being 'disqualified'.

Ask Garland why he was disqualified

He wasn't disqualified.............Senate must confirm him and Dems didn't have the votes to get him in..........

Should the GOP have just put him up and got 5 sluts to say that Garland raped them............same as your side.........

Not allowed to proceed is not the same as a character assassination.

Ask Garland why he was disqualified

Garland wasn't "disqualified" for personal behavior, McConnell simply used the "Biden Rule" not to confirm a nominee in a presidential election year. Trump won and picked Gorsuch. If Hillary had won she could have re-named Garland or pick someone else. Who do you think she would have nominated? Probably not Garland.

That's right. No advise or consent. Nothing.

The Senate didn't give consent.............and they didn't accuse him of being a rapist either.

No! Garland was disqualified for being nominated by President Obama!

Yet still disqualified. Disqualified, disregarded and disavowed. Dissed in every way.

He was disqualified for not being nominated by a conservative

 

[rightwinger]

Garland would have jumped at the chance for a Senate hearing

Yes

Mitch used the Biden Rule.

(Remember him? He was the sitting VP when Garland was being nominated. Bet that stung))

It would have prevented ANY nominee being considered until after the election

HIs option wasn't picked up, per the Biden Rule.

This has all been explained to you before, be me, and others. Short term memory loss?

Far cry from a political hatchet job accusing the nominee of being a rapist.......with no evidence to back it up.

Elections have consequences.

 

[JGalt]

Those just about disqualify ever Democrat I've ever known.

time for the filibuster on lifetime SC nominees to be put back in place... it forces them to be the deliberative side of our Congress and come to compromise, as long as it isn't abused by the minority... it's better than this heels dug in at all costs crapola!

Pandora's Box was opened, and using parliamentarian procedures to bypass restrictions is something both sides were willing to do. When you play with nukes, assured mutual destruction is what you get.

Too little too late, you don't get to eat your cake and have it too.

That sophistry is also a load of shit! Just where is the alleged "Biden Rule" codified in law or compiled in any Senate rulebook? What Biden said in 1992 when he was a Senator sure as Hell can only be construed as a "Rule" by fools, malcontents or partisan sheep of a RWNJ tribe.Which group are you in?
