Conservatives were effusive in their praise on Tuesday evening for President Donald Trumps choice for the U.S. Supreme Court, Neil Gorsuch.
- Faith & Freedom Coalition Chairman Ralph Reed said:
President Trump won 81 percent of the evangelical vote in no small measure because he made an ironclad pledge that if elected he would fill the vacancy on the US Supreme Court with a strict constructionist who would respect the Constitution and the rule of law, not legislate from the bench. We never doubted then-candidate Trumps sincerity or commitment, and by nominating Judge Gorsuch, he has now kept that promise.
- Michael A. Needham, CEO of Heritage Action for America, said:
Judge Neil Gorsuch is a nominee very much in the mold of the late Justice Antonin Scalia. President Trump deserves credit for fulfilling his campaign pledge by nominating an individual who will, based on his record, interpret the text of the Constitution
- Tea Party Patriots President and co-founder Jenny Beth Martin said:
Tea Party Patriots and our network of supporters and grassroots activists across the country thank President Donald Trump for nominating Neil Gorsuch to be our next Supreme Court Justice.
- Americans for Limited Government President Rick Manning said:
President Trumps wise and thoughtful selection of Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court should be respected by the Senate
- Former Senator and presidential candidate Rick Santorum said:
Judge Gorsuch has proven himself to be one of the great legal scholars of his generation. His rulings on the Circuit Court have shown that he understands our Founders intent and will rule with the strict constructionist legal mindset our nation needs.
- Carl Anderson of the Knights of Columbus said:
We applaud the presidents nomination of Judge Neil Gorsuch

That’s music to my ears!
The Progressives/Democrats/Socialists do not want the United States Constitution in any form. Our Constitution like The Ten Commandments ( in many languages)will and always be consistent.
“NeverTrumpers like Erick Erickson, Amanda Carpenter, Ben Sasse, and of course Glenn Beck..yeah all these clowns who trashed Trump every second now want to get on board and pretend they never said a mean disgusting thing about him”
It’s really funny. They’ve been scrambling like a bunch of six-legged cats trying to cover a 15 inch turd.
Neil Gorsuch Is Nothing Like Donald Trump: He’s principled, dexterous, and eloquent.

Conservapedia is saying that he’s pro-choice. What’s their problem(s) with him?
He’s a fly fisher. I approve.
NARAL of Colorado doesn’t think Gorsuch is pro-choice, so they’re very unhappy about him. LOL.
Judge Gorsuch has a record of ruling in a way that does not reflect Colorado values on reproductive rights. This is a pro-choice state that supports the constitutional right to abortion enshrined in Roe v. Wade and the right to privacy enshrined in Griswold v. Connecticut beliefs that are contradicted in Judge Gorsuchs ruling in Hobby Lobby and Little Sisters, Karen Middleton, executive director of NARAL Pro-Choice Colorado, said in a statement.
Colorado has a long, bipartisan history of supporting reproductive rights. Judge Gorsuch does not reflect the will of our state or the constitutional rights of American women and we would oppose his nomination, she said.
Gorsuch is squeaky-clean, so itll be fun to watch how sleazy the DemoRats will be — in trying to discredit him.
It will further erode what little respect the sleazy left will have. They have been so used to getting their way when they sabotage good bench nominees (by Borking Bork and Clarence Thomasing Clarence Thomas).
This time, theyll have egg all over their faces because all they can do is try to dig up dirt on a guy who is squeaky clean. When they can’t find any, they’ll get violent and the MSM will issue FAKE NEWS about Gorsuch. Hopefully, it’ll all backfire on the Leftwing Crybullies.
Once he’s in, just think: 30+ years of bench longevity for a young 49 y/o Gorsuch.
Cruz wrongly says Trump's only Supreme Court pick is his sister, a 'hardcore pro-abortion liberal'
Trump, however, "does not care about conservative justices on the court," Cruz said of his opponent, in a Feb. 14 interview with George Stephanopoulos on ABCs This Week.
"You know, the one person he has suggested that would make a good justice is his sister, who is a court of appeals judge appointed by Bill Clinton," Cruz said. "She is a hardcore pro-abortion liberal judge. And he said she would make a terrific justice."

Ted Cruz Claims Trump Would Pick Liberal Judges For Supreme Court
"The next president is going to appoint one, two, three, four Supreme Court justices," Cruz said Saturday during the GOP debate in South Carolina. "If Donald Trump is president, he will appoint liberals."

Cruz confronts Trump supporters
"Did you know Donald told the NYT that he is not going to build the wall?.....I'll tell you this, sir, if Donald Trump ever becomes President, he has said on the Supreme Court, he is going to cut a deal with Chuck Schumer, he said that two debates ago, which means he is going to put a liberal on the Supreme Court. He is going to take away your second amendment rights....This man is lying to you and he is taking advantage of you." - Ted Cruz

He looks like an excellent pick.
How long before the criminal enterprise called Democrats Bork him?
So proud.
Freepers picked a winner!
Disgusting. Just think, Glenn Beck was telling his listeners to go vote for Hillary.
Who would we have just been introduced to tonight as Scalia’s replacement if she were elected?
Where have you been? Upchuck Schumer was all over the airwaves before Gorsuch was finished speaking, foaming at the mouth, complaining in that New York whiny voice of his how Gorsuch was out of the mainstream, he was another white male and so forth.
Then I happened to go by another channel where Nancy Pug-ugly was holding forth, spewing her bile about our next Supreme Court Justice. Didn't hear what she said, just the sight of that "woman" makes me queasy. (Hell, Hitlery is a raving beauty queen next to San Fran Nan!)
And that doesn't even count the local radio station nattering nabobs from slamming Gorsuch even before Upchuck had his chance.
Here is some factual information about Judge Gorsuch.
this nominee sure does sound excellent!
GO TRUMP!
LOL! Great description of the NeverTrumpers. :-D
Ted Cruz and Lindsey Grahamnesty were positively glowing with happiness earlier tonight over Gorsuch on FNC. Has anyone heard from Mark Levin?
A stellar choice. Trump hit a home run.
