Why aren’t GOP and conservatives in the media, talking about how the Democrats so thoroughly politicized and blew up the confirmation process, with the Robert Bork hearings, and the Clarence Thomas hearings??

Why isn’t anyone talking about how Biden and Schumer in the past, said that no judges should be confirmed in a presidential election year??

Why isn’t anyone talking about how GOP “obstruction” is simply adhering to the Democrats own criteria as to how a Supreme Court vacancy in an election year should be handled??

Why do we have to listen to Obama pontificate about the constitution and responsibilities of people under the constittuion, when his party has so completely politicized a process which he now says should be above politics??

And just how liberal is this judge Garland??? It’s hard to believe Obama would nominate anyone who isn’t a reliable liberal 5th vote on the Supreme Court.

Judiciary Chairman Grassley has made the points you describe on an almost daily basis. It just hasn’t been covered much. Nice that Lee is being covered.

Who is gonna deliver the story?

Reference it every 5 mins during the confirmation hearing that can stretch from here to whenever. Say it a thousand times for a year. It might get through. Then confirm it or deny him...when it is our pleasure.

“Why I remember when...” Keep your powder dry, boys. We’ll kill them in the trees and push them into the river and take them out to drown.

Do we have to blow every chance we get to have people walk away saying “the Rats got outfoxed?”
