No Judges Confirmed This Week (Jeff Flake strikes again)

Posted on 12/01/2018 3:06:59 AM PST by cotton1706

This will be a weekly post.

Count remains at 84 judges confirmed.

53 District Court judges

29 Circuit Court judges

2 Supreme Court justices

The Farr nomination (district seat in NC) was killed because he (OMG!) helped Jesse Helms get reelected. Trump can renominate but will likely pick somebody else.

In 34 days, Jeff Flake's senatorship ends!

The importance of impotence. The poison contained in the fangs has been neutralized, but the bite marks still show.

I’m amazed Flake would leave his sons such a dreadful legacy... what a selfish little jerk of a man.

Funny how it’s “Republicans” like Flake and McCain that talk the best game about fighting on behalf the People, but always fight the hardest against other Republicans. And also find it necessary to “reach across the aisle” to make deals they _know_ are bad for the People.

What’s Jeff Flake’s handler, Chris Coons gonna do once he’s gone? I guess he’ll have to manage Collins or Mur-cow-ski.

You’re being disingenuous about his role in Jesse Helms’s reelection.

Helms played racial dirty tricks for that and this guy, though denying it, was found to have his handwriting on the documents involved.

The GOP doesn’t need that in a judge, however long ago it was.

Oh, and yes, Jeff Flake is a disgrace.

They should have booted him off the committee by now as a lame-duck saboteur.

Tim Scott in SC was against Farr too. That sunk it.

Speaking of his children. One of them, a son, is openly gay, and goes around telling people, when confronted, do you know who my father is? I wonder how long it will be before that one has legal problems.

Poor Jeffery is having constant nightmares about the evil “Latina” elevator demons. Their high pitched screeching scared the hell our of him. He’ll never be right again.

I agree. This is so lower class. Even his family should be telling him not to be such a self-absorbed big baby.

His family are bigger babies than he is. Just do an internet search about his family.

“Jeffry,” according to Google, and he was born in Snowflake, AZ.

Remove Flake from the judiciary committee. Or just take the nominations up on the floor directly.

“Or just take the nominations up on the floor directly.”

Great idea! The floor can choose to accept the Committee’s recommendation — or not — so the Committee’s input isn’t required.

Because they are pathetic losers who want people on television to be nice to them. Most likely they have very low self esteem.
