Democrats are pathetic in delaying Sen. Jeff Sessions confirmation, he's a man of integrity and every one of the RATS know it.

These nominations are being shepherded through in spite of the most intense opposition in modern times.

At least according to the article. I have no memories of anything worse. Only the Clarence Thomas confirmation was in the same league.

Seems like the RATS are insisting on making Sen. Sessions jump through all the antiquated obscure hoops.

We have to nuke the Dems politically in 2018.

That the Dems could do this to a man of Christian integrity like Jeff Sessions, who these cretins knew and worked alongside of for 20 years, is shameful.

No more reaching across the aisle.

They need to be kicked out of the door on their @sses.

” he’s a man of integrity and every one of the RATS know it.”

That is precisely what frightens them about him.

Franken should have been beaten to death with his microphone right there in the Committee chamber for his pathetic display at the hearings.

Enough. Democrats lost and lost big. They need to be ground into the dirt under a boot heel like scurrying cockroaches that they are. Enough.

I’m old enough that I’ll never see the day that this bunch of retards totally control this country. But my children may unless the American people come to their senses and recognize islam for what it is: a real threat to their freedoms, their religion and their very lives. Islam and the Constitution are incompatible and cannot coexist. Ultimately the citizens of America will be forced to choose one and abolish the other. I pray they choose the Constitution.
