The Rino ‘RATS are coming out of the closet. Americans need to be ready.
16 Republicans? They probably don’t want the off chance that Trump, Cruz or Bernie for that matter get to make the nomination.
imaginably, they have all been honey-potted by DC madams working for Soros or whoever by now.
no way
Why bother pretending there are two parties?
Soros is apparently buying one at a time.
Toughy, crappy. No hearings. Let the dems feel how they deal with us.
These guys just want to “make a great deal “ for Supreme Court nominee.
Why are FReepers upset about that ? Don’t they just want great deals made, and declare that winning ? And of course those “ great deals “ have to be made with Democrats.
I’m shocked.

Shocked that it is only 1/4 of them.
I figured that by now there would only be two holdouts (and perhaps two no-shows, what with Cruz and Rubio busy being Cruz and Rubio).
Notice how the Republicans don’t have the balls to do a Bork like Ted Kennedy Speech regarding a Nominee who they feel is unacceptable?
The reason is simply that they DO find the Nominee acceptable. It’s no wonder we have no faith in the Republican Party. Just another Brick in the Wall.
We have no real Representation in D.C. and it gets more obvious every day.
We already know the Nitwit that Obama chose is a big time Gun Grabber who obviously has no understanding of the term “Shall Not Be Infringed”.
If he can’t comprehend those four simple words, God knows the damage he will inflict on our Freedoms.
Let me guess - non are up for re-election.
These Republicans are getting cover but the seat isn’t going to be filled until after the election.
Looks like NBC is now in the lobbying business.
This looks like the beginning of another failure of the Republican Party to support their voters. Talking to someone who wants to implement gun control, who supports the killing of babies, is a failure to support the Constitution, as written. With "Republicans" like those we have no party at all.
They are either wishy-washy, or they just want to get re-elected so they set their integrity aside.
And this is what happens when you have so called gay republicans or conservatives... they all vote for the progay leftist judge, Ah!
Meetings mean nothing, Senators can meet until the cows come home. Hearings are another matter and they are not going to happen because the power to hold hearings are in the hands of the Chairman of the Judiciary Committee and the Senate Majority Leader.
ILLINOIS
BELLEVILLE - Senator Mark Kirk’s re-election campaign could be undermined by the Republican Senate leadership’s refusal to hold hearings for President Barack Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland, the downstate Belleville News Democrat writes Tuesday.
Kirk has broken with GOP leadership and scheduled to meet with Garland Tuesday afternoon in D.C.
“Illinois voters demand that their elected officials offer independent and thoughtful leadership that puts the people of Illinois first all the time,” according to a statement from his campaign. Kirk said he “looks forward to meeting with Judge Merrick Garland and remains hopeful that there will be a fair and thorough hearing along with a complete and transparent release of all requested information.”
