As RedState previously reported, a number of prominent Senate Republicans including some of the more moderate ones like Sens. Susan Collins (Maine) and Lisa Murkowski (Alaska) indicated in no uncertain terms that they would not support any proposal on the Democratic side to put a temporary replacement on the Senate Judiciary Committee while Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) continues her longer-than-expected recovery from the shingles virus.
In an update to this story, we’re happy to let readers know that the Senate GOP, led – surprisingly enough – by Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), indeed followed through with their promise to block Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), who put forth a resolution earlier calling on his Senate colleagues to allow another Senator – Maryland’s Ben Cardin – to temporarily sit in Feinstein’s place on the committee:

Yeah, but.....is this a done deal? The Chuckie-ites don't usually quit after the first defeat. They will want the Pussy Pubbies to have another chance to capitulate.

with their promise to block Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.), Chucky should just get mad and quit.
That'll show them a thing or two.

This representation from the grave has got to stop. They need to tell Feinstein to quit.

I feel bad for Chuckie. So bad. Perhaps a touch of Seppuku will make him feel better.

Well I hope they only use 15-year rated shingles on the old gal. She’s not gonna last another 15 years, it’d just be a waste of better shingles.
/yes I know its not that type of shingles

So, I guess it’s safe to assume that her safe and effective shingles vaccine failed to be safe and effective.
