The difference between voting against Condoleezza Rice and Loretta Lynch

[rdean]

Condoleezza Rice was allowed an actual vote. Some voted against her, but they voted.

Loretta Lynch is not being allowed that chance.

Even the most ignorant of the USMB right wingers know it's within the Senate Rules to call a straight up vote not attached to any bill. The whole thing takes 10 to 20 minutes.

Does it matter who votes for or against if the vote isn't allowed in the first place? Just more voter suppression from the GOP.

Almost every poll I've seen says the people don't want Lynch. To be honest Holder's racism isn't helping her at all

Lynch would be voted on and likely approved within a few minutes of Democrats abandoning their obstructionist filibuster over actual important matters.

But they won't.

Republicans could pull a "Reid" and go "nuclear" but this time the Democrats are stewing in their own juices. Let'em stew.

The majority determines the senate calendar, get over it. If it were up to me there would never be a vote on any of your dear leaders nominees. Cooperation is a two way street, it's time maobama learned that.

Lynch is a black nationalist that hates whites and will advance hatred against whites. There's no comparing the two.

Democrats should have shown up and voted in the last election....

Post all those polls.

Why do you even bother?

 

[NYcarbineer]

This whole conversation would take a dramatic turn if Condoleezza Rice announced she intended to marry her girlfriend.

 

[ScienceRocks]

When a black man commits a crime he deserves to pay for it like everyone else. Lynch would have special rights for blacks and that isn't fair.

This is why we must oppose her. She's nuts.

Once again....try Google. I have no interest in going through looking for something to please your whims, child

Carb would just say "nuh-uh" anyway.

What was it Obama said about elections?? Oh I remember...here it is : "You don't like a particular policy or a particular president? Then argue for your position. Go out there and win an election."

We did. Deal with it.

IOW you lied.

Democrats are pissed that Lynch didn't jump over everything else to be number one on the agenda just because she's black.

She has a long history as a prosecutor. Cite all the cases where she has given blacks special rights.

 

[Zander]

She's never getting confirmed. Deal with it. Elections have consequences.

Keeping in mind that I am no fan of either party...


What was it you on the left were fond of saying back in '08 and '12? Elections have consequences...

Shit. Didn't even see this...

 

[Antares]

Tell the Dems to stop with their blocking tactics on the Sex Trafficking Bill and she'll get her vote.

It really is just that simple.
