Obama slams 'crazy' delay of attorney general confirmation

Washington (AFP) - US President Barack Obama lashed out Friday at Senate Republicans stalling his attorney general nominee's confirmation, calling it "crazy" and "embarrassing" that Loretta Lynch has yet to get a vote.

"What are we doing here?" an exasperated Obama said at a White House press conference, referring to how Lynch has now waited for her confirmation vote more than five months.

"There are times where the dysfunction in the Senate just goes too far. This is an example of it," Obama said.

"Enough. Enough," he added. "Call Loretta Lynch for a vote, get her confirmed. Put her in place, let her do her job. This is embarrassing, a process like this."

Obama accused his foes of "political gamesmanship" because the nomination of Lynch, the current US attorney for the Eastern District of New York, is bogged down in an unrelated human trafficking bill.

I hope that the Senate does not cave to this idiot. He made an abysmal choice. Vote her down.

She’s only against gun ownership and for illegal immigration and civil forfeiture. What’s wrong?

All Obozo has left are his warped opinions because every time he states facts he’s wrong.

‘This is an embarrassment’. Look up ‘embarrassment’ in a dictionary, and you will see a picture of Barack Obama.

I used to know a woman whose husband called her crazy at least twice a week, or whenever she didn’t do what he wanted.

They are not married anymore.

lol. Or Kerry. Or the flavor of the month SOD. etc.
A bunch of losers are going on a hunger strike until she gets nominated. I’m trying to think of a witty remark but not clever enough.
