Chuckie Schumer thinks that if he is first to use the term 'litmus test' to describe a nominee to the judiciary (as in 'the republicans use a litmus test on abortion to decide whom to put forward), then he is immune to accusation that he is applying his pro-Roe litmus test tot he nominee. It is the crimnal enterprise democrats that use a litmust test ... look at the moderate positions of Souter and Breyer, bit Republican administration nominees (if memory serves), as well as others!

Chuckie Shumer goes to church with Julian Phillips and Julian dares to call himself an objective journalist.

I suspect we haven't seen anything yet with respect to RAT obstruction of judicial nominees. Just wait till the president tries to fill vacancies on the supreme court with qualified, conservative candidates. Of course, a little fantasy of mine is that the RATs will look so bad by that point for the stunts they've already pulled that furthur obstruction would be political suicide, clearing the way for the president to appoint those SAME individuals that they have so adamantly and unfairly opposed, to the USSC. The anguish that would cause the senate RATs would indeed be a pleasure to behold.
