Hey Murky, you shouldn’t lie like that. I understand that when you do, your private parts fall off!

I think before the democrats take the Senate and the presidency, the Supreme Court will be 6-3 or 7-2 conservative...

If we can get one or two good decisions on voting integrity the SC will be ours for 10 generations.

The 2A is icing on the cake -- voting is the big deal. Without fraud, elections will go our way.

well good- then republicans can filibuster every nominee by democrats while they ‘hold power’ and when the republicans take the power back, we can change the rules again and get through all our nominees-

Works for me Markey!

Sure they will! if they get 61 Democrat senators. Of course that is not something that will happen in the next cycle.

He called their move "unprecedented"

That's news to me, Reid did it for lower court nominees so the difference is what exactly? ****ing hypocrisy.

Such phony scumbags, it is hard to believe any of them.

Their Obama Care is a disgrace, when 19 million elected to pay a tax rather than be covered, it is time to say it is an abject failure.

Do you want to know what will REALLY happen if the Dems ever regain the WH and Senate?

The Filibuster will be eliminated completely - for ALL appointments AND legislation. They will lie and say the Republicans already did it, and the FakeNews media will nod their heads in agreement.

Heh. Every time I see a RAT complain about the Supreme Court seat being "Stolen" by Trump, I ask them if the U.S. Court of Appeals for D.C. seat was "stolen" by Obama since the Dems refuse to hold a vote on Bush's nominee Miguel Estrada.

I have yet to get an answer from them.
