You really think the Democrats would fillibuster the first black woman (and single mom) nominated to the court?

Uh, yeah. They already filibustered her for a lower appointment and are absolutely beholden to the kook left. You better believe they would have filibustered.

Uh - not when you're pitching in the big leagues. Appeals courts are not even on the public radar. This would be a frontpage bloodbath. They would step much more carefully, in my estimation.

Wrong. The only reason RATS successfully filibustered the circuit court nominees, including Rogers-Brown, was because their media handmaidens protected them; the American people knew little or nothing about it.

The media cannot protect the RATS during a filibuster of a USSC nominee: the position is too visible, too newsworthy to the American people. The fight would be public, visible to all. JRB would become a household name.

The President should have sent up JRB and dared the RATS and the media to assault an accomplished black woman in front of the American people, and expose these socialists for the hypocrites that they are.
