Good - stand up for life.
A pub with balls? Who would have thought...
Does it matter now that “Baby Killer” Nelson has gone to the dark side?
Question: How do you put a ‘hold’ on a nominee? Since California’s two Senators are Dems, they sure wouldn’t do it. This specifically said the Republicans put a ‘hold’ on him and others.
What is it in the Senate Rules that authorizes this?
Thanks in advance.
Maybe a few kudos, in the form of E-mails/phone-calls, from us, are in order. They sure as hell won’t get anything positive sent their way from the obammy media whores!!!
Good news always welcomed.
So I guess I am confused. If a handful of GOP senators can block 0bozo's pro-abortion, ACLU, judicial nominee for a federal judgeship in San Francisco no less, than why couldn't they have blocked Sotomayer the same way? And even more importantly, why couldn't they have blocked the vote altogether on the health care debacle????
Makes you wonder what the Republican party could accomplish with all RINO's gone.
Read the article, it’s a filibuster. They will need 60 votes to end it. They probably have 58 at most.
Should have found their stones about 11 months ago.
