Carson isn’t paying attention sometimes.

The GOPE appoint the same kind of judges as the Democrats.

I love ya Ben, but we already lost the Supreme Court. Bush saw to that.

Yeah, let’s let a third Bush choose our Supreme Court justices because that’s been working so well.

A very important message coming from Ben Carson.

This is more than just the presidency on the line, and Ben Carson is absolutely correct on this.

Trump is a RINO, though.

We don’t have to have RINO Jeb or RINO Trump at the helm.

So you would rather have Hillary appointing SCOTUS justices?

Will we get justices entirely beholden to Trump if Trump is buying Congress critters, as was said about him at the debate?

So we should just give up...

Nah, I would rather not.

John Roberts has proven that Court picks are not always what we think.

I’m never voting for any of The Cheap Labor Express candidates, so if the GOP nominates one they are forfeiting millions of votes, just like the last two elections.

¡Yeb! is the worst Democrat in an R jersey they have ever tried to foist on us. He is a Designated Loser.

Trump is clearly a RINO.

Carson is not. He, along with Cruz, are one of my top three faves as I stated yesterday.

Actually the Bush's have a 50 percent rate on SCOTUS picks. That's better than any democrat's zero percent, but it's far short of good enough.

GWB: Roberts (fail), Alito (pass)
GHWB: Souter (epic fail), Thomas (pass)

Republicans can’t even run on “Think of the JUDGES!!!” anymore, that’s how badly they’ve blown it.

Who said we should give up? You must have mistakenly posted to me.

Right?

False choice.

Cruz, along with Carson, is no Jeb Bush.

But Trump IS a RINO.

There is nothing in the Constitution that limits the number of judges to 9.

A Right wing POTUS could add six members if he had the stones.

Chavez made short work of a PITA Supreme Court in Venezuela, don’t think it can’t happen here.
