Not to worry... It’s just a loony liberal replacing another loony liberal.

Thanks to RBG, the court will remain conservative for another generation or two.

[Maudeen]

Someone may have something on him.

[Paladin2]

But Ditch is voting against!

We better pray that Clarence Thomas outlasts the Biden Administration and the next President will again be Trump.

I suppose the FBI will hold that party for affirmative action nominee...../s

[Political Junkie Too]

As I posted earlier:

---

If Republicans really had the nerve of the Democrats, McConnell would make his caucus all vote NO, all 50 of them.

Make Democrats own the optics of the first black woman Vice-President casting the tie-breaking vote to force the first black woman Justice onto the Supreme Court, because she was THAT unacceptable a choice to the representatives of half the states in the union.

Corrupt politicians.

[lee martell]

This is Joe Manchin’s Olive Branch to his own party, hoping to make up for having slashed the tires on the Build Back Better bus.

No. Every single person who votes for this racist Communist monster is a filthy scumbag, driving a stake into the coffin of America. Ketanji is trash. Manchin is trash.

[thinden]

Joe planning on retiring at the end of his term?

[Dutch Boy]

She wound not be dangerous now but in the future, she could be the difference in continuing the existence of the republic.

[FlingWingFlyer]

I don’t care who the heck you are. Even Manchin shivers and wets his pants when they flash the RACE CARD at him.

[Lurkinanloomin]

2 conservatives, 4 flip floppers and 3 communists do not make a conservative court.

[Vision]

She is an affront to everything America stands for.

[Tolerance Sucks Rocks]

From what I understand, Myth Romney and the Abortion Twins will likely vote for her, too.

[Lurkinanloomin]

We all know some of the Assistant Democrats will not be able to resist.

[Bishop_Malachi]

Thanks to RBG, the court will remain conservative for another generation or two.

If this court is “conservative”, then conservatism is in big trouble.

[glennaro]

Everything Manchin does, any action Manchin takes is purely a political calculation. Honor, integrity and principles play no role in his life; that is, he's a typical self-serving politician ... nothing more / nothing less (although from a moral perspective there is nothing less than a poltician.)

"The Republic Be Damned" is the operating principle of the Democrat/Communist Party.

there was no stopping her once she was nominated. Most Dems agree with her on every issue.
