Okay, don't take this personally anyone but is it just me or does anyone else think it's weird that the news went immediately to "the battle over Scalia's replacement" with virtually no celebration of his life?

I know there have been posts on this forum to that end, but I'm talking about the newsies.

Can't they spend at least a little time acknowledging his time on earth?

Polls are a waste of time. They’re gonna do whatever they want in Washington regardless of what we say.

The president should nominate someone. And the senate should confirm or not.

If Bork is still alive and Obama nominates him I’m all for confirmation “this year” and the senate will probably work with Obama.

If Obama picks someone who thinks the supreme court should take another country’s laws into consideration when ruling then the senate should not confirm and I doubt they will.

It’s in Obama’s control whether or not the senate considers a candidate - he knows what they will accept and he can either work with them or not.

There is no Constitutional reason to wait. Both sides will dive at any reason at all to “win” on this one.

Email / Mail / Fax your US Senators & Mitch McConnell - Tell them to Hang Tough & Don’t Let Obama Replace Justice Scalia.

Sample Letter

Dear Honorable US Senator McConnell,

Sir, you are exactly right to delay a new Supreme Court appointment until the next President. A resolution was passed by the Democrat controlled US Senate in 1960 for this purpose. The link to this article from American Thinker is pasted below.

http://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2016/02/dems_in_senate_passed_a_resolution_in1960_against_election_year_supreme_court_appointments.html

Obama cannot be trusted on anything and needs to be completely held in check by our Congress until his term is finished.

Please stand firm with the US Senate, be bold, and tell the liberals that we will follow the 1960 US Senate resolution and not allow any Supreme Court appointments in an election year - period.

Thank you sir for the job you are doing.

Sincerely and respectfully,

.....

If corrupt Congress had impeached and removed lawless Obama from office a long time time ago like they should have then we would not be concerned about Obama nominating / appointing a new state sovereignty-ignoring justice to replace Scalia (RIP).

[SaxxonWoods]

Obama wants a big fight and Republicans will help him put on that show.

And, he’ll get his nominee too.
