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.

race card and woman card all rolled into one, how frigging surprising.
She should be disqualified based just on her immigration answer. She is just another social justice , female version of Holder who cars little about the law and justice, but instead more with social justice.

So Holder is the first African-American but Lynch would be the first black? The editor take the day off?

Democrats: “ if you don’t approve of everything we want, it’s about race.”
It is mostly about race but they are using the homo card a lot lately too.

Which Republican smacked Durbin across the face and told him to shut his trap with his vile, race-baiting, vile imagery of a disgusting period in dem history?

Responding to the race card is a lose lose, if they put her in; then after criticizing anything she does they will just turn the race card over again, the deck is stacked, all the cards have the same picture on both sides, choose a card any card, you lose.
