Republican presidential candidate Ted Cruz warns as part of his stump speech that we are one Supreme Court Justice away from losing our Second Amendment Right to keep and bear arms. On Wednesday, President Obama nominated for the Supreme Court vacancy created by the passing of Justice Antonin Scalia just such an individual -- Judge Merrick Garland, chief judge of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbis, a Bill Clinton appointee.

I would have expected nothing less from Odipshit.

Obama has said that the biggest regret of his presidency is his failure to disarm the American people - so this pick makes perfect sense.

Heavily connected to DC establishment.

Political hack.

[mabelkitty]

America’s biggest regret is being armed with this failure.

Sen. Roy Blunt (R-MO)(RINO) reportedly said he “would meet with anybody, but I think it would be a waste of his time.” Blunt added he would probably not accept a meeting with Garland if the White House requested one.

Time for another surprised look from Blunt.

Merrick Garland was Jamie Gorelick’s principal deputy at the Clinton Justice dept.

Shocked? Not.

I think in time, if that time isn't upon us now, the GOP will become more agreeable to eliminating the people's right to keep and bear arms. I mean, isn't it becoming more obvious they despise the whole "consent of the governed" principle? An armed populous is as dangerous to their hold on power as it is to the Democrats.

So, I would not be surprised if the Republicans cave on the Judge Merrick Garland consideration.

WEll if they put another lib on the bench and we get a 5-4 decision agains’t guns let me tell you what will happen. We won’t be getting rid of the weapons of 100 million Americans we will be getting rid of 5 lawyers in black robes.

[rktman]

Well no doubt in that case the pubby “controlled” senate will probably start hearings next week. After all, delaying it is unprecedented. Well according to the lyin’ king that is.

[LeonardFMason]

Buy your guns and ammo NOW!!!!!!!!

If Hillary wins it is inevitable.

THEN will begin a black market to rival the drug trade.

By necessity we will all become criminals.

[TYVets]

We are over half way though the filing period for candidates, has any republican filed against him for the August primary?

[Eric in the Ozarks]

His reelection campaign seems to be running under cover.

All that money spent in the Obama economy on firearms and high priced ammo wasn't spent so people could turn around and meekly hand it over.

Someone wants to take my gun, they get the ammo first.
