"The seat that is sitting empty is being stolen. It's being stolen from the Obama administration and the construct of our Constitution and it's being delivered to an administration that has no right to fill it," Merkley said.

When pressed on his answer further, Merkley said he thought any nominee put forward by the president-elect in the next administration would be "illegitimate."

Your team was trying to pack the court with justices which can not be described here (because children may be reading). You’re mad because you guys were stopped on the one yard line on fourth down. Now, we have to march all the way back down the field to undo the gains you made. Life is like that.

[Cicero]

So, you guys murdered Scalia, and got nothing out of it?

What a shame!

Dafuq is a ‘Murkley’?

I know, you can sue if you don’t like it. Maybe SCOTUS will hear the case in a few years, LOL

The one that we are being screwed out of is Ginsberg said she would quit if Trump won, so we’re even.

[goldstategop]

Who cares what he thinks?

We won, they lost. Let them go fly a kite.

[gasport]

The Fred and Barney dwarves are bogus.

[chris37]

All your base are belong to us.

ESAD, Merkley.

[Anti-Bubba182]

We won, deal with it! :D
