Democrats are flailing around in a desperate effort to block Judge Neil Gorsuch’s appointment to the U.S. Supreme Court. They are still sore over what the New York Times editorial board claimed was the “Senate Republicans’ outrageous and unprecedented blockade of Merrick Garland” last year. Vengefully seeking to delegitimize Judge Gorsuch’s nomination, the Senate Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are using much of their time trying to trip up Judge Gorsuch with “gotchas,” as well as caricaturing the man and his record. In the process, the Democrats appear petty and partisan, while Judge Gorsuch is acquitting himself with eloquence, dignity and wit. Over and over again, Judge Gorsuch stressed his fealty to the law, including to the Constitution.

Democrats hate it when their own rules are used against them. As far as Franken, I have yet to hear him put together a coherent questions in any of the confirmation hearings. The guy is a total idiot who does not belong in the senate.

Knowledge has nothing to do WITH IT when it comes to the Democrat Party. They are authoritarian and nothing is reasonable other than what they say. They are Evil and make no mistake they are as willing as the terrorist to take America down to rule.

The real goal will be to delay the votee because Trump “is under the cloud of an ongoing investigation”. GOPe McConnell will no doubt capitulate.

Gorsuch-—best looking judge——ever.

They may be authoritarian arrogant moralists, but the fact remains, you need to know more than your opponent. In a hearing, defending yourself, that's what counts, if anything counts. Besides, they are not the world.

Perhaps it's more than a failure;

it's a...

..."flailure"!

In DiFi's case, a "SuperDuper Flailure"!

The members of the RAT Party, show how vacant that party is!
