If the Republicans give in to this they deserve to be disbanded forever!!!

Last chance for the RINO's to come back to the fold. We are taking names.

If they do it they will be, at least for all practical purposes. The 0bama zombie court would quickly find a constitutional right for illegal aliens to become citizens outright or vote anyway. America as we have known it would cease to exist within an election cycle.

Listening on the radio.

More of the same. Rambling, whining, and PROJECTING.

He’s describing what the democrats did to all of Bush’s nominees and doesn’t know it.

I disagree. Follow the money, and all that. Plus, I doubt the bunch of them collectively even have the IQ of lint.

That should have been good for a laugh.

His own party put the kibosh on this back in the 60s.

Too late...

Is this a ‘U.S.-ASEAN’ press conference or a ‘BASH THE SENATE REPUBLICANS’ seminar?

I honestly think they’re NOT going to let Obama have this.

The Republican base is already furious with them for giving the little girl in the White House everything he whines for. They'd better NOT cave and screw this up. If they do - they haven't seen anything from their angry base yet.

If their spines stiffen it will likely ONLY be because their donors want Citizens United to be preserved.

They sure ain’t gonna do it on OUR account.

He’s such an arrogant POS. I couldn’t watch him for more than 3 seconds.

First time he’s mentioned the Constitution more than himself.

The simple answer is that Obama can do what the constitution says he can do. He can nominate.

The Senate gets to advise and consent, but it looks like Obama isn’t taking anyone’s advice on whom to nominate.

The Senate can consent or not consent. They should non-consent on anyone who is not a jurist in the tradition of Antonin Scalia.

They, too, are doing their constitutional job just as it’s written in the Constitution.

Nothing is written that says they must approve a nominee. History is littered with nominees who have been disapproved.

The pitcher has to pitch the ball. The umpire has to call the balls and strikes. Just because he pitches the ball does not mean he gets a strike.
