thank you for the facts. Unfortunately, the facts don't matter to Republicans.

The facts??? Does he get credit for repeating my facts after I corrected his flawed and incorrect statement? Who cares.

The only thing he added was that we are misconstruing what Biden REALLY meant. What it amounts to, is that whenever the leftie kids say something and then decide the other side can't do it, they yell "that doesn't count. We didn't mean it like that. No fair."

All I will add to the lefties on here that are using lame excuses like the lame Biden, is GROW A PAIR, and take some responsibility. And then grow up and take your beating like real Americans. You don't have to agree, but you also can't have your way 100% of the time.

We all know what Biden meant, and now it has come back to haunt him. It's not one of those open mic things where he whispers in Obie's ear that "this is a big F...ing deal!" But, in this case it IS a big deal and he has to own it.

And by the way, how do you explain off Schumer's comment about holding up nominations for 18 months????? I'm sure you have a good excuse for that one. Oh, that doesn't count either. :icon_wink:

Is there any doubt in anyone's mind that if the roles were reversed, the Dem would be doing the exact same thing? No? Thank you!

Unfortunately, even though I don't believe anything that Hillary says, her voice is like dragging a cat across a chalk board. Oh, you didn't mean that?

I feel sorry for Judge Garland. He is an excellent choice, previously okayed by Republicans and Democrats alike, and now he is a pawn in this Republican obstructionism.

It is a shame people are more concerned with taking sides then they are about what is in the best interest of all of us.

Guest 03-18-2016 08:38 AM

Garland is Anti-2nd Amendment. That is enough to disqualify him. I would be very disappointed if the Republicans do not block his appointment.

Guest 03-21-2016 04:51 PM

Kentucky voters it is time to send McConnell walking
 
You are aware that last pole gives CONGRESS an approval rating of 10%, like it or not, it's time to clean up shop and McConnell should be at the top of the list after this.

You stand corrected.

He is a pawn entered upon the table by Obama.
Nice try, again, at misinformation by the supporters of Obama.

The best interest scenario is to follow your duties you swore to. The GOP should accept the nomination and then do what they want. Simply refusing to even consider is a slam at how this oountry works. They have made just the simple act of nominating a person into political theatre.

Is that what you said as Harry Reid held a hundred bills passed by the House on his desk, not allowing them to be voted upon? I thought not. The Senate is doing the right thing by not allowing the nomination to go through right now. It's their prerogative. They are not breaking any laws, or rules. There is no hurry, no wars are on the line. So, get over it.

Guest 03-22-2016 07:25 AM

You might want to do your homework before opening up your mouth. You are clearly uninformed about history.

Call me crazy, but the last time anyone refused to do their job, they were FIRED! McConnell is NOT doing what the taxpayers of Kentucky voted him to do. First Rate even by low Republican standards, Merrick Garland, should, at the very least, be considered for appointment to the Supreme Court. Another example why the citizens of this great country are frustrated with a "do-nothing" congress. Get rid of all of them!. Even Rubio got caught with his knickers down. Is there anyone in congress that we can trust???


Guest 03-22-2016 07:27 AM

Don't come on a public forum and tell other people what they should do. I can assure you that nobody cares about your uninformed opinion.

We all need a reality check
 
Sure wish this forum came with a reality check, followed by a pie in the face for false statements. Who would win this contest???

Guest 03-22-2016 08:29 AM

The thread has devolved to the waste of time level of tit for tat.

Guest 03-22-2016 09:14 AM

Harry DID get fired from leader, by the VOTERS. Sen. McConnell is doing exactly what the voter put him in there to do. At least, right now. Of course, knowing how congress is, so wish-washy he could change his mind again next week.

Guest 03-22-2016 09:16 AM

As liberals said, elections have consequences. The Republicans won, so live with it until your side has the power again. You refused to work with the Republicans when you had the power, so don't bother to cry now. No one is listening.

If we give walking papers for not doing they're job Dirty Harry would of been gone alooooooooooong time ago. the Shyt for brains should read the owner's manual and replaced the bungi cords on his excerise equipment. But just like Obama care he didn't read that either other than the part how much kickbacks he would be getting from the Lobbists.

Are you kidding? Uninformed opinions and telling people what to do is the basis for many on this forum. Your post is case in point.

so, the people of Kentucky now determine when a president can nominate a justice to the Supreme Court? To my knowledge those are the only people I know of who elected this walking talking turtle welfare recipient.

Duhhh, there is more than one senator in the Senate, retard. Did you really think that he is doing all this on his own?

I will just let that comment sink in. After all he is indeed the subject of the original post, he is who determines who gets to nominate and when a supreme court justice can be sent to the Senate ... I will just let your idiotic comment sink in ... duh there are more than one senator in the senate, duh.

Guest 03-22-2016 10:07 AM

Does it matter to those who are calling the republicans obstructionists, et al that the republicans are doing exactly what they told Obama they would do if he tried to fill the slot as a lame duck.

Does it matter to those same Obama supporters that the reublicans are merely doing exactly what the democrats did is similar situatons in the past?

Do the supporters know there is a Biden rule calling for not appointing a justice during a lame ducks term?

Do the supporters know that their Obama as a senator spoke strongly against allowing appointing a justice during a lame duck term.

And we all know the answers will be but that was when it was a republican president was trying to do it. And we know that it was the democrats that were the "obstructionists".

So that obviously was different and OK by their book.

BS!

You are naive. Unlike Reid, McConnell does not have complete and sole control over the Senate. But, if it makes you feel good, then blame him. But, also remember what Reid, Schummer and Biden said in the past about election year nominations. Then, just sit back and think about the next words that you post.

What one says and does matters. How many SCJ were not voted on by Reid?
