Yes, totally agree. I pray Neil Gorsuch will be all that us fellow conservatives hope that he will be.

You may appreciate as I have this video:

Most of the GOP consented to BHO picks , can anyone point to quotes where the most Conservative of them explain/ justify this?

I wonder if Obama was surveilling Gorsuch...?

Reid implemented the “nuclear option” for lower court judges. He would have for the Supreme Court too if he had ever needed it.

The Borking of Gorsuch continues. So long as there are anti-American Democrats’’and quisling Republicans and a
people content with their bondage the status quo will remain.But then Robert Bork sold a lot of worthy books after the other side refused his nomination .

Won’t a filibuster by the DIMS upset the precious moderates?

The Senate needs to get rid of that archaic 60 vote rule (AKA: Byrd Rule) once and for all. That would include Justice appointments but also phase 3 of getting rid of/replacing Obamacare.

Interesting as the phrase "nuclear" is actually a constitutional. Liberals are always trying to scare the non educated people. Including the media. 👍

No nuclear option is needed. Under Senate rules, they can exhaust all debate within 48 days and then force a vote.

Exercise the nuclear option and primary any Republican Senator who doesn’t vote to confirm.

This is an interesting question, because Linda Graham has said he will vigorously oppose employing the so-called “nuclear option.” And if Linda opposes it, that means McCain opposes it. And I can see the Bobsey Twins (Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins) also opposing it.

The Dims are happy with a 4-4 court, and they will filibuster EVERY Trump Scotus nominee.

Since senator Harry Reid changed the consent rule in the Senate, the Democrats lord it over the Pubbies right up to 2014.

Turn about is fair play.

Make it difficult to filibuster. Make it dry as possible. Change the settings on the A/C. Turn off the water fountains, and make sure there isn't any bottled water for blocks. Provide salted peanuts, and potato chips.

Republicans should all wear ball caps with #51 on them.

If he is not confirmed, he would have been another Scalia; if he is confirmed, look for another John Roberts soon to emerge.
