McConnel discusses why we don't confirm Supreme Court justices in an election year.

this is war and the court will be ours and we are taking your right to end life(not even a right, constitution give us right to self govern and bad bad things)

if you care about the election year court ethics, why did you push a partisan impeachment against consituition ethics and flasyely accused kavaaugh of sex assault
 
Time to face a few facts. Had McConnell called hearings with a GOP major judiciary committee what are the odds Garland would have been referred to the full Senate and that the GOP led Senate would approve him? hint: zip, zilch, none.

Of course, but the nomination would have been made and today there'd be no argument against Mcconnell's game playing now.

Not so fast. Mitch never even gave Garland a chance for a reason. He was a highly qualified moderate and could have been confirmed.

Believe what you want. I'm not going to argue about what didn't happen.
 
He makes some good points, don't you think?





I think the only "point" Moscow Mitch and make at this point is he's a chickenshit and always has been a chickenshit.
 
Romney is not a Democrat and several other Reps. said Trump was proven guilty so no impeachment was not partisan it was his aquittal that was. The evidence against Trump was overwhelming and damning
Romney is a Republican, even though they try to deny it....he is about the only one left with their common sense in tact.
 
His acquittal was partisan. The evidence against Trump was undeniable.
no it wasnt, not even close

and thats what I mean

this is war, the time for ethics is long gone
 
No.

There should be a time limit from when a President nominates a judge and teh Senate must vote.
Regardless of the letter after the president's name and the partisan makup of the Senate? I agree.

Sauce for the goose should be sauce for that gander as well.

OK, if you say so, but this has nothing at all to do with confirming a SCOTUS nominee.

The court won’t ever be “yours”. And don’t count your anti-woman’s choice eggs too early either.

Disagree. Barring any disqualifying revelations, even a GOP lead Senate would not dare reject Garland. Judge Garland was a well known moderate who was respected and openly praised by many Republicans in D.C., where he was (still is) Chief Judge of the Appeals Court.

That is why McConnell had to torpedo Garland before he could even get a hearing.
