Democrat: Republicans putting Lynch at 'back of the bus'
Associated Press ^ | 3/18/15 | ERICA WERNER

The second-ranking Senate Democrat on Wednesday accused Republicans of putting the president's attorney general nominee "in the back of the bus" by delaying her confirmation.

Sen. Dick Durbin of Illinois made the comment on the Senate floor as he criticized the GOP over its handling of Loretta Lynch's nomination. She would become the nation's first black female attorney general, replacing Eric Holder, the first African-American in the job.

Isn’t Durbin being racist by equating his Democrat Party/Cult’s candidate for USAG with a 1950s poor negro woman? Sounds racist to me.

Please note post #29. I should have remembered that it was Harkin who lied about serving in Vietnam.

Anyway, how do two fine Midwestern heartland states like Illinois & Iowa send liberals like those two to Congress?

;^)

As usual, the media and the democrats mislead. It is the democrats that are holding up the vote by not letting the current bill about human trafficking come to a vote because it has abortion language in it. BUT, of course the dumbass GOP leadership aren’t hitting back with that fact, but just roll over and let the media and democrats say whatever they want with no corrections.

Obama Tells Republicans to ‘Sit in Back’

He said Republicans had driven the economy into a ditch and then stood by and criticized while Democrats pulled it out. Now that progress has been made, he said, “we can’t have special interests sitting shotgun. We gotta have middle class families up in front. We don’t mind the Republicans joining us. They can come for the ride, but they gotta sit in back.”
