"Second, this appointment ignores the value of diverse backgrounds and perspectives on the Supreme Court."
The Dems have made clear that they will not support a conservative black or Hispanic candidate.
Exactly.
Me too!! Reid should resign for his racist remarks of not having two American Italians on the bench.
Let's get it on!! The war for american culture is on. Ie, life, campaign finance reform, saying a prayer in school, the pledge of allegiance, the death penalty,giving the president the power to deal with terrorists, and on and on. Kudos to the President for this nomination (better late than never.)
It's a subtle difference, but in reality it makes all the difference. Recognizing that the several States are individual and sovereign preserves our Republic and limits the federal government to its Constitutionally restricted boundaries.
Recognizing the United States as a singular entity advances the notion that we have a national government which is supreme over the States and the People.
When Harry's disappointed and sad,
he makes me optimistic and glad.
Glad to hear it!
First, unlike previous nominations, this one was not the product of consultation with Senate Democrats.
Since when does the President need to consult with you losers for nominees to SCOTUS? Did Slicky Will "consult" the Republicans to ... oh. He didn't need to. They just rolled over and nominated his ultra-left-wing choices!
Cry a river, Mr. Reid and shut-up. Oh, and if you try to filibuster, dodge this:
Yeah? When are we Polish-Ukrainian Jews who've had their gall ballders removed going to get our representative on the court??
McCain was on @nus in the morning and seemed to support Alito but was going to see how he did in the hearing. It certainly didn't sound like he thought the RINOs on gang of 14 would automatically object.
But, is he deeply saddened?
OK now I am convinced this is the correct choice.
Try winning a few elections and maybe you too could make nominations to the Supreme Court. Talk about impotent. The Democrat party as a whole needs Viagra.
Oh my, I can't imagine Harry's face WITH a wedgie.
BTW, Cry me a river, Harry!
Like the 'Rat leadership in the Senate. VERY old boys.
