While the chaos and disruption from Democrats during Judge Brett Kavanaugh’s Supreme Court confirmation hearing has sparked derision and mockery from Republicans and some media commentators, some on the party's liberal wing think Democratic leadership is not doing enough.
Sen. Kamala Harris, D-Calif., interrupted Senate Judiciary Chairman Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, within seconds of the hearing beginning on Tuesday, setting the scene for a chaotic few days that included a number of theatrical displays -- including a regular stream of protesters being dragged from the public gallery.
Sen. Cory Booker, D-NJ, dared Republicans to have him expelled for releasing committee confidential documents --- documents that it later turned out already been cleared for release -- and called it his “Spartacus moment.”
But some liberal groups are complaining that other Democrats from Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-NY, on down haven’t been putting up enough of a fight. “The Supreme Court is on the line, and you are failing us,” a letter from from 13 liberal groups, including the Women’s March, DailyKos, Friends of the Earth and Justice Democrats, to Schumer said. The letter described Kavanaugh as “an extremist who will help institutionalize Trump’s hate for a generation.”
“Your job as Senate Democratic leader is to lead your caucus in complete opposition to Trump's attempted Supreme Court takeover and to defend everyone threatened by a Trump Supreme Court,” the letter said. “But unbelievably, nearly two dozen Democrats have still not come out against Kavanaugh, and just last week, you helped Majority Leader Mitch McConnell fast track 15 Trump judicial nominees. That is not the leadership we need.”

Democrats haven’t displayed enough spin, lies, deception, attacks, viciousness, and their usual dastardly methods, to keep the hard-core Lefties happy. But, let’s give them credit for trying.
“Elections have consequences, and at the end of the day, I won.” – President Obama to House Republican Whip Eric Cantor, January 23, 2009.
There was a Spartacus moment, but who is the real Spartacus?
To tell the Truth, will the real Spartacus please stand up. The Booker clip should be played during a campaign. It would make a good political advertisement for the Republicans.
The GOP needs to stoke this, encourage it, do whatever they can to trigger the far Left; maybe release a statement about how Charles Schumer has been easy to work with. Whatever it takes.
Oh, don't worry about that.
To be a Democrat politician you have to be half fake Marxist and half fake moderate. Add those two fake halves and have you have a complete fraud and fake for a politician!
no they are not failing you, you dem groups are already failures since you’re desires are for ungodly, anti-american ways to increase all across the USA.

Well, isn’t that just too f’ing bad-and please do keep up the tantrums and other drama queen antics...

so there weren’t enough protests, enough histrionics, enough meltdowns, to suit these liberal groups?
Did the Left expected their Senators to leap over the dais and slit Kavanaugh’s throat?
I bet the media would have loved it.
Liberals just can't help it. They constantly let you know what they'd do; they project their actions on others. Trump isn't doing his job nominating people to SCOTUS, he's taking it over. He's doing what they want to do, in their minds.
Maybe the best plan would have been to convene the meeting, give the floor to the dems, and let them have two days of making fools of themselves.
Oh...sorry...they DID that!
LOL
Shoot them up with a military rifle while they're playing softball?
