What a piece of Trojan Horse slime.
Sure, Zer0 has the power to appoint. And the so far spineless Senate has the power of Advice and Consent. But, will they ever have the stones they promised to use in their campaigns to be a separate and equal branch aand say no to a fringe lunatic liberal appointee in sheep’s clothing and say NO?
Probably not. Thus, the rise of Trump and Cruz.
To give the nominee a hearing is opening the door for a full fledged sell out, which is the GOP MO.
This SC nominee is as precious as the 2nd Amendment, open no doors, don’t give an inch, once done it’s all lost.
The GOP are pathetic, the public knows it, even the rats know it. They are the equivalent of the French that collaborated with the Nazi’s in WWII. Traitors that would sell out their own mother for money or power. Very disgusting, very evil.
This is why Trump is so popular, he can do or say just about anything that would embarrass most, but the fact is he is a much, much better person than the typical RINO and he has goals of making America great again, when the RINO’s obvious goal is it’s continued destruction.
Where is this duty specified?
Why does this not surprise me Kirk would say this?
Mark Kirk = Dick Durbin’s poodle.
There is a good conservative candidate running against Kirk. His name is Jim Marter from Oswego. Christian, pro-life, family man. Oh, and he’s not a politician.
March 15th can’t come fast enough.
If the republicans approve obamas pick for the SC and trump is the nominee, Hillary wins.
GOPe pussy.
And have that hearing last 340 days with a vote of no.
Predict who will be next?
Xxx
Check with VP Biden and get back to us.
“I also recognize my duty as a senator to either vote in support or opposition to that nominee....”
No, Sen Kirk. Your job is to advise Obama who he should appoint. If he appoints someone off your list it shouldn’t be problem getting him or her confirmed.
I used to think Repubs were independent thinkers. Now I know they are only out to save their own skins, and America can go pound sand.
I think this the first time I will have used bad language on the Freep: we don’t give a damn what you think, Sen. Kirk, that nomination doesn’t deserve a vote.
These spineless corrupt RINOs cant wait to be of service to that creature Obama,
Its truly bizarre watching those like that reprobate McCain, Graham and Kirk bend over backwards to give that demonic Obama everything he wants even before he asks for it,
This is what it looks like when Satan gives someone their seat power and great authority, his low level servants in the periphery fall all over themselves to be of service to their master,
Really? Kirk finally broke with liberal Democrats and international globalists?
