I’d like to see them start sooner. Or just say you had her hearings in 2017, vote on her now.
Count of the Dems dragging it out as long as possible. Hopefully the Turtle calls for an up or down vote and limits debate.
Why not tomorrow? And the vote on Wednesday?
why the long delay? it is very very critical that this vacancy get filled for sure before election day, given all the reported Democratic election-stealing activities
For what? She’s already been abused when they did the circuit court hearings. Just call a vote Mitch. Quit screwing around. Let schmuckee and his ilk whine. They can puh cough! Oh, maybe they want to drag the kids through the pig trough?
The vote and confirmation must be wrapped up prior to election day. Otherwise, if Trump loses, the squishy RINO’s ( Mitt, Murky, etc) will have no allegiance to DJT and they will vote no- out of revenge. We will lose a chance, once in a generation, to solidify a conservative court.
Turtle better wake up.
Great, give Dems plenty of time to drum up false accusations, run ads against her, provide wall to wall negative coverage of her on msm, bribe/blackmail squishy Rinos. What could go wrong?
Not going to happen. The Dems don’t want a replay of the Kavanaugh hearings and people aren’t going to buy that again.
Me, too, but that gives us two weeks to fast and pray for the whole situation and see God move.
....Judge Barrett is a native of South Bend, Indiana....
WRONG!!!! She’s a native of New Orleans, LA!! And she got a BA from Rhodes College in Tennessee!!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amy_Coney_Barrett#Early_life_and_education
So she’s a Southern woman by background. But she’s been in South Bend, IN since 2002.
Mitch needs to take Linda out behind the dumpster and slap him around for the delay.
Relax. I too wanted a confirmation vote and skip the hearings. But you have to realize this is smart politics by Mitch. He’s maximizing turnout of the base and he’s demoralizing the leftist groups. If Collins becomes a yes vote, she instantly wins re-election. Trust me, this is all about demoralizing the Left and driving a stake through their numbers.
McConnell is smart enough to know that the political optics of having Democrats attack ACB will be disastrous for them. Video clips of that whore Kamala Harris scolding the gentle ACB in a Judiciary Committee heading will be worth millions of dollars in political advertising.
The stupid party once again shows how they got that moniker.
Strongly AGREE!! Get her confirmed and seated well before Election Day.
Then the Dims won’t be able to steal the election via the “Mail-In” scam!!!!
For those protesting the delay, one must give SOME time for review of docs. Yeah, she was vetted three years ago. She’s written a few dozen opinions since then and spoken some. Indeed the Left will use the time to build hyperbolic accusations and erect various strawmen. That is the way of things.
With Lindsey Graham in charge, it will be done as expeditiously as holding the dems accountable...
Wait, we’re in trouble!
“Why not tomorrow? And the vote on Wednesday?”
We’re talking Lindsey Graham here, so...
Also, no hearing is required, it’s tradition.
So FkTht and go straight to the vote.
