Should never have made it out of committee
Oh, please. We have all seen this act before. Hold it up, delay it, make some noise to appease Conservatives, and then nominate the candidate 98-2.
Pfft..., does anyone - anyone - still believe all this political theater crap anymore? What a joke.
Good. Delay it till January 2017.
Oh, MOTHER of GOD!
The white boys on Capitol Hill better hurry and confirm her or the Kenyan will kick their asses.
This is one which qualifies for “mixed feelings”. On the one hand, we need to get rid of Holder. On the other hand, we don’t know if Lynch will be much better. If I had to choose, I think I would opt to get rid of Holder as soon as possible and take my chances with Lynch.
An absolute travesty if her nom goes anywhere at all. Nothing that we are not used to, unfortunately.
Mugawd, your psychic powers are amazing, with their accurate look at the future!
“Should never have made it out of committee”
It hasn’t yet as far as I know.
I hope you’re kidding. Holder has given notice. Lynch is even more overtly radical than Holder. It’s a perfect certainty she is beyond unacceptable on her own words, there are no chances to take IMHO.
In her confirmation hearing she said anyone in this country - legally or illegally - has a Constitutional right to work. Essentially, the rule of law be damned.
That disqualifies her for Attorney General. Period. Any republican who supports her violates their sworn duty to protect and defend the Constitution.
I’ve already told my newly minted Senator, Perdue, that he HAS to come out NOW and say he won’t vote for her or he will lose my vote if I’m still alive when he runs for re-election. I’m not interested in him getting absolution from McConnell for a no vote when McConnell has determined he has enough votes to pass her.
Holder has given notice, but he will stay there until a replacement has been sworn in. We know how bad Holder has been and continues to be. We aren’t sure whether Lynch would be worse, but I have a hard time believing anybody could be worse than Holder. This is one of those hold your nose moments. Either way you go, it stinks.
She should be rejected because a known criminal attended her selection announcement. I mean not only Obama but Al Sharpton as well.
Maybe I misunderstand the purpose of the US AG, but isn’t the main responsibility to UPHOLD THE LAW AND DEFEND THE CONSTITUTION?? She has already said she won’t uphold the LAW! How is she still under consideration???
“Republicans have said generally they have no beef with Lynchs qualifications and résumé.”
And there’s the problem.
The implication is that the difference must be RAISIS.
You are a fool - non thinking ... TWO YEARS OF LYNCH!!! Holder is going to go ...and might even go with a temporary in stand pending the appointment of another
