Hey, liberals: must the Senate suborn perjury?

The president just stated with unqualified certainty that the rejection of his executive amnesty was a result of the Senate failing to confirm Merrick Garland. In doing so, he just absolved the Senate of any blame for refusing his nominee.

Democrats have been pressing for now for a *hearing.* But what would such a hearing consist of? Is not the most basic purpose of a hearing to ascertain whether the nominee can fairly, impartially and intelligently consider the merits of the cases brought before him? To even ask him whether he would be impartial would be to suborn perjury.

What Obama was saying is that HE KNOWS HOW GARLAND WOULD RULE.

That claim by Obama is sufficient reason for Republicans to refuse to hold a hearing on Garland’s nomination.
