We can only hope the congress holds out .
They have been weak all other times .
If I refused to do my job, I'd be fired and denied unemployment.
Congress gets re-elected. Explain that garbage.
If your in your last year of congress should we refuse to let them vote on anything? After all they may be gone after the election. Sounds only fair.
"Nothing's gonna stop us now" is Obama's motto going into his last year in office.
If those bastard GOP bow to this a hole and votes for any justice, after they said they wouldn't, I'm done with them! Will no longer vote for them.
9:05 Congress is doing their job. They refuse to approve an appointment by a lying impostor who is trying to destroy America.
The Senate has every right and to act or not act on our Marxist/Muslim nominee. Read the Constitution.
They certainly have to right to refuse a confirmation, but it is their duty to at least go through the process.
How about we just quote the constitution:
"He[The President] shall have the Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two-thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall appoint Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Councils, Judges of the supreme Court, and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law: but the Congress may by Law vest the Appointment of such inferior Officers as they think proper, in the President alone, in the Courts of Law, or in the Heads of Departments."
Actually these judges are not that bad! Can you say ROBERTS!!!
Garland is ANTI 2nd Amendment.
Just like Roberts who voted for Obama Care Tax!
