Yes it is! If we lock this one up, and Ginsberg is next, could be looking at a 6-3 majority for decades (get Thomas to retire when it looks safe and replace with someone younger, too, at some point - although I love him on the bench!)

I thought they already announced summer recess had been cancelled.

I’d really like to see this done before November. It gives them less incentive to turn out to vote.

Progressives will reall go ape feces when Breyer or RBG go. That would push any chance of a Leftist court takeover back. If both were to go, the court would be strict constructionist for a generation and our constitution would be safe.

We’re gonna get a more conservative justice as a replacement!

Unhatched chickens comes to mind. Of course Mitch could prevent the 60 vote rule but he likely doesn't have the votes.

heh heh

Ruth Buzzi has an intense dislike for Obama, and was hanging on for Hillary. Maybe she’ll lose her will to live now.

Maybe Buzzy will once she figures out that she will only be part of the Minority until she finally kicks the Bucket.

"LS is one of the few Freepers I go out of my way to read everything he posts here. I also follow him on Twitter.

It's a shame that many here fight with him over his opinion that Sessions is a "white hat" who will eventually bring much of the Clinton/Obama crime family to justice. That's another topic where I feel LS will be vindicated over time."

I’ll bet POTUS Trump just popped open an Ice Cold Diet Coke to celebrate.

Oh I think Trump has a dozen names already checked out and ready to go. The GOP? I don’t think they want to get into the fall election cycle with this pick as their top business. Trump will say otherwise....making it absolute top priority in two months to accomplish. Maybe he’ll make it interesting and find some Alaskan American Eskimo Republican judge and really fake out the Democrats.

Nominate me! I’m not a judge though. Or a lawyer and pretty much a nobody. Doubt I’d qualify.


Interesting but being a lawyer is not required to be a Supreme Court Justice
