I'm sure I'll get flamed here, but Obama should pay as much attention to this as Bush did to the suggestions from Democrat Senators that he consult with them first about judicial nominees. If Republicans wanted more input on judicial nominees, they should have run a stronger candidate, a better campaign and won the Presidential election.
This letter sounds like the Republican Senators are a bunch of whiners.
Maybe McConnell and Specter can get some of the more conservative Dems to turn on some of Obama's nominees in a "gang of 14" type agreement. Yeah, like that would happen. Specter will just green light any appointment that the pres__ent sends up.
P.S. However, should you decide to name a unhinged, far left, openly Marxist nut to the court instead, only about 3 or 4 of us will have the guts to oppose his/her nomination.
Signed,
All Republican Senators
What’s this supposed to do, make him die laughing?
Nice to do something to let him know your’e not a bunch of cows but geez, why don’t you just put on knee pads and crawl down Pennsylvania Ave?
HEy you stupid GOP’ers, RINO’s, and LIB LITES... do just what they did to us... FILIBUSTER EVERY nominee. Until you get nominees that are so conservative they make Reagan look like a MODERATE.
the DEMS made sure that law was there.. and the 14 RINO’s made sure it STAYED THERE .. (thank you RINO McLAME)
Obama’s idea of ‘consultation on judicial nominees’ will consist of Obama inviting a few Republicans to a White House party to convince them to vote in support of Cornel West for Supreme Court Justice.
HEY GOP, forget BIPARTISANSHIP as long as PELOSI and REID CONTROL CONGRESS. Without Congress, OBAMA Will cram his socialistic agenda down every Americans throat whether we like it or not.
They are.
I'd like to remind them that Senator Frist left some of GWB's nominees stranded without Senate votes (for months!), even though they had been approved and voted out of the Judiciary Committee.
Meanwhile, the GOP should use the rules that the DEMS established as acceptable, regarding judicial nominees. Obstruct via abuse of cloture.
Yep. As Dear Leader has already told them, "I won." It sucks to be the losers.
Oh well, maybe if they band together against Rush some more, then Obama will listen to them.
Pipe dream
I agree with you. They should send a letter telling the president their constituents are free and all his attempts to go above the powers granted him by the constitution will be ignored by the states.
They’re just playing politics as usual. It’s not about playing politics anymore. This isn’t a cute little cat fight between James Carville and Mary Matilin-Carville. We’ve fought WARS over what’s happening now and people’s fathers, brothers, and sons have died agonizing deaths to keep this stuff from happening and their playing politics of judicial nominees. HOGWASH!!
Fat chance. They will put in every slime ball, abortion approving, gun hating, God hating, liberty despising, freedom hating, pig leftist judge they can find. The judges they select will be just left of Stalin.
Actually, Republicans should insist on picking the Supreme Court nominees, which is what the Democrats did when they were out of power.
Let Obama nominate someone, and then vote against him/her.
Just deny every one of his picks up and down the list. Demand 2/3rds majority approval. Tell Ted Kennedy to stick it in his rump (he coordinated with PACs to deny hispanic candidates their hearings all for political advantage at the polls).
Say, you do?... Aren't they sooooo cute when they're being naive? Bless their little hearts...
You are exactly correct.
I think you started something with pres__ent, LOL Viralize it! Keyword it. Get Jim to make a tag of it, cross post it on other blogs, forums, etc.
Is there any video of 0bama saying “present”? Put it up on youtube and name it
0bama is PRES_ _ENT!
new movie title “Burn Before Reading”.
Seeing the term "Honorable" associated with Leaky Lying Leahy is infuriating.....
That is one sonuvabitch who has NEVER been or behaved honorably....and to apply the term even as "form", diminishes the meaning and significance of the word.
