The Biden Rule... hahaha get lost Obama

[backwoods-engineer]

I have to admit: quoting the Biden Rule was a good move. It shoves it back in the Democrats’ faces.

The Biden rule = Just get a shotgun, man! Fire it in the air!

‘The next justice could fundamentally alter the direction of the Supreme Court and have a profound impact on our country, so of course the American people should have a say in the Court’s direction…The American people may well elect a President who decides to nominate Judge Garland for Senate consideration. The next President may also nominate someone very different. Either way, our view is this: Give the people a voice in the filling of this vacancy.’

Agreed. If this was Ruth Buzzy and his proposed replacement was in fact reasonably moderate (always a crapshoot, I think some of them hold their fire until it's too late to do anything about it), then fine. Since he wants to replace one of the more sane Justices, uh, NO.

Yurtle speak for “give us time and we’ll slip him right in for ya Barry, ‘ol buddy.”

And so the dance begins.

The Trump Revolution has you in its cross-hairs, McConnell, and don't forget it.

It certainly has. Obama set the trap and the Republicans have walked right into it. Think about it. A 63 year old white guy? Based on the choices for the past 45 years he's too old, and for this administration he's the wrong race. Garland is one candidate who, on the face of it, has nothing that the Republicans could complain about. That's why he was chosen. This nomination is meant for one reason and one reason only; so the Democrats can hammer away about the obstructionist Republican congress on the campaign trail.

[publius911]

I hate that a*****e McConnell so much I'd rather not comment...

Useless piece of ****!

[Sir Napsalot]

Mitch has zilch credibility.

[1Old Pro]

All right I’ll say it...

Bravo Mitch - you’re doing the exact right thing.

People need to know that this election doesn’t just hinge on making America great again, many of our rights and freedoms hang in the balance.

Stand firm Mitch AND keep saying what you’re saying.
