I didn’t click post three times. Not sure what that’s all about.

re convene from what?
Is the idiot who wrote this article deaf, dumb and blind?
Doesn’t he know that the Supreme Court is now 100% Obama hacks? The most dangerous thing that can be done to completely remove our freedoms is to reconvene it now without anyone who enforces the rules set forth by the Constitution.
Hold it in limbo until after the election and only then fill the slot.
Subpoena his Birth Certificate
and check for its validity.
I personally believe it*s a forgery.
The Senate is in recess. He could appoint someone this morning and that person would be on the court until the end of the session (Jan 2017.)
It is legal. It was last done by Ike.
And you bet Barry is gonna do it.
And there is nothing “we” can do about it.
Now that we have a Monarch with a phone and a pen, the courts are no longer that important.
Separation of powers is no longer possible. We have a benevolent despot.
This makes politics much simpler. For example, if they rule guns should be confiscated, our recourse is to shoot the governing class. Not a problem.
I don’t understand God’s plan here. He took Scalia out during a recess. Maybe it is to force Mcconnells hand and then have a true revolt at voting time.
Or may God is just an Obama loving lib.
Our country is going to hell.
These idiots in DC will capitulate the country down the river. The Left will put up the most egregious clown they can, and the repbs will allow it to happen, without saying anything.
The Jarrett Admin isn’t going to squander a lifetime Cabal pick for a one term recess appointment. Not yet, anyway.
There is no current danger from the Senate being in recess. Later, maybe?
But first, the left and her media sycophants will squeal like stuck pigs to see if they can’t break any resolve not to nominate.
A vote for another Jarrett SC member would make a GOP vote for Obamacare seem like a prudent political position, by comparison. The republican casting that vote better be retiring or changing parties.
The line in the sand is right here.
To quote one of my favorite actors, “This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we’ll be lucky to live through it.”
They’re NOT recessed, they’re just adjourned:
“ORDERS FOR MONDAY, FEBRUARY 15, 2016, THROUGH MONDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 2016
Mr. McCONNELL. Mr. President, I ask unanimous consent that when the
Senate completes its business today, it adjourn, to then convene for
pro forma sessions only, with no business being conducted, on the
following dates and times, and that following each pro forma session,
the Senate adjourn until the next pro forma session: Monday, February
15, at 11 a.m.; Thursday, February 18, at 9 a.m.; I further ask that
when the Senate adjourns on Thursday, February 18, it next convene at 3
p.m., Monday, February 22,”

Whatever needs to be done to prevent a recess appointment is necessary, but I bet he makes the appointment early tomorrow morning. He plays hardball and won’t miss this opportunity.
