Don’t know the constitutional answer to this: Can Congress call itself into session if adjourned, or can only a president do that?

Obama resigns, Biden nominates him, the pubbies fold and affirm him, Biden becomes democrat party presidential nominee. You read it here first.

Well, Mitch, you have said the right words.

Now, let’s see if you have the testicular fortitude to follow up on them.

The future of the country is at stake.

I read a report moments ago seemingly saying the exact opposite.

Link?

As long as I don't like Mc Connell

He is the one who leads the current Senate not Politics playing Ted Cruz.

Doesn’t matter what McDonnell thinks.

What does #BLACKLIESMATTER think?

No, this is not great news....not coming from this idiot.

McConnell cannot be trusted to do the right thing.

You know Onambla will make a nomination, and it will be a sodomite, or some other leftard that will cause a ruckus during the election.

Isn't this the same guy who said at CPAC before the elections "If I'm given the opportunity to lead the U.S. Senate next year, I won't let you down."

Another REPORT just in via the Washington Times confirms what McConnell has stated.

It’s great news, hope he holds. They must have had to lock their doors and hide from the mob to have come out with this statement.

Praise be!!! There is a light at the end of the tunnel. It may be a train coming that helps a lot of wayward Republican’s remember what the word means. I’m changing my tagline back btw. Long live the Free Republic. Donate please. I’m tired of seeing the FReepathon threads already. Thanks in advance.

He will fold and do whatever Obama tells him to do, per usual.

You can bet your bottom dollar that Obastard will move quikly to replace him. He will use every single trick in the book to do it.

Now who do we have to oppose this pending move?

I don’t know how long the Senate will hold out. It doesn’t seem likely to me.

Uh oh...McConnell offered some public token opposition...the fold is imminent!

Look for him to help Obama come up with a backdoor method for confirmation.

Maybe Corker can put forth a process, where the appointee is confirmed unless it’s voted down...a la Iran?

Ha ha...we are screwed with this bunch in charge.
