It is just north of Center City, between ther and I 90/ Indiana Toll Road.

I agree. Give a leftist enough time, they’ll provide the rope in which to hang them.
In Miss Lindsey’s opening statement, instructions, etc., for the hearing he should take the wind of out the RATs’ sails in his first sentence. Something like:
“These proceedings will be conducted with strict adherence to the United States Constitution. Article VI clearly states that ‘no religious Test shall ever be required as a Qualification to any Office or public Trust under the United States.’
“Therefore, any questions related to Candidate’s religion, faith, dogma, creed, or similar are strictly prohibited.”
I’m not kidding!! WHY have Senators been able to get away with blatant religious bashing for decades? It couldn’t be any clearer that religion CANNOT be an issue.
You can just hear the sound of crumpling papers as they’re being turned into wads and thrown into wastebaskets.
And everything in written law that pertains to employment based on racial issues — and there’s a TON of it — Miss Lindsey needs to make that his second paragraph.
Once you take out the subject of her religion and her kids’ skin color, they’ve got nuthin’.
Good Lord, what a gorgeous family!
Nope, that's a graphic I found on the 'net. It's not new but the message is topical, unfortunately.
Not really. The small number of voters swayed by a Kavanaugh-like treatment of Barret will be easily overcome by the voter fraud that is being put into place. The Dem vote will be massive, along with the fraud. I don't thing we understand how well engineered Biden's vote is...they've planned this for 4 years to prevent a repeat of 2016.
Agreed, it should be set to start this week.
Every part of the process needs to be expedited.
Imagine a world in which women can’t kill babies between conception and birth.
She will be confirmed, but you are correct that the delay is stupid.
Democrats: “There is no way we’re going to allow some white woman with a couple of token colored children to be on the Supreme Court.”
“Every part of the process needs to be expedited.”
Agreed. A lot will depend on how well Graham runs the hearings.
What is wrong with starting tomorrow morning, say 9 AM. Stolen Valor should have been at work already at 0 dark 30.
Another thing to consider is that there will be a vacancy on the circuit court. Need to fill that before that court gets worse.
Yes
Yup. Their efforts to steal the election will be infinitely harder if the Supreme Court is honest and follows the law. With Roberts as a swing vote, that is in doubt. Adding ACB removes any doubt.
Another reason to get rid of Wray sooner than later.
As explained by that famous Scottish political analyst, Phil MacCavity.
The dems will bombard SC with ads too. I expect some to have videos of the hearings, with a narrator to “Demsplain.”
