Whelan makes excellent points here. Hopefully, the White House Counsel (or Attorney General) will state the correct interpretation.

I have always consider the "Advice" part to be the Judiciary Committee review and approval of the nominee. The whole Senate doesn't get to "Consent" until the Judiciary Committee "Advises" that the nominee is approved by the committee.

[John Valentine]

And the idea that consulting Senate Democrats about prospective nominees would somehow have any value is ludicrous.

Any President agreeing to this will diminish the Presidency for himself and for every succeding President. For that reason I think no President of either party could agrre to such terms.

Note that the Senators expressed this thought in the form of a wish.

It is a forlorn wish, indeed.

[The Ghost of FReepers Past]

But the majority of Senators are being denied their right to advice and consent.

Democrats: "You might want this ass of which we so handily deprived you once more."

When you are in a position of strength, you force your opponent to accept what you desire. You lose your position of strength when you grant your opponent their desires.

Sorry, but the GOP (Groveling Old Pussies) have lost this one by TKO.

It's time to start a new, truly conservative and truly constitutionally-oriented party to replace these sellouts.

[Yosemitest]

NOT ONE PENNY!!!

I'm angry enough to pledge money to real conservatives who will run against these RINO's and replace them. How about $100.00 a head?

I encourage everyone to attack!
