Thank you for listing the least trustworthy, most compromised, amoral scum bags in the federal court system. We’ll start combing their records for impeachable offenses. I doubt we’ll find a Kavanaugh sized hoard of provable crimes, but if the Fedralists like them they are dirty and Unamerican by definition.

The GOP is full of shit.
The democrats only have themselves to blame.

Red, look up the phrase "locus of control."

That's when you cannot accept responsibility for your own conduct, but must blame others.

"It's not our fault we act this way - you made us behave unethically!"
Um. The GOP’s behavior is not being questioned.
The hearing protests and defiant questioning by democrat-wannabe Presidential candidates leading the way are the stuff of five-year old brats.

Pretty funny coming from a member of President Trump's party.
Guess you didn’t follow the hearings.

Your party dumps 42,000 documents the night before the hearings are starting, then it refuses to delay the hearings until there is time to review them.

And you think the Democrats' behavior is out of line?

Guess you don't follow rules of conduct.

Still.
Since the democrats have already stated they will not support ANY GOP nominee their feigned tantrum is laughable. No wonder they are a minority party.

Using that reasoning, the GOP should be the minority party.

But since they didn't actually say that, you just made it up, your feigned argument is vaporware.
Except they did.

Your usual quality of support for your argument. "Did too!"



Trump said he would be choosing Kennedy's replacement from a list of 25-individuals released shortly after the 2016 presidential election by his transition team.

Before President Trump has declared a new nominee, Democrats stated every person being considered is already disqualified
They're demanding Trump "ditch the list" and come up with candidates that meet their leftist standards of constitutional revision.


That's supposed to be evidence?

hahahahahaha!

a) No citation, no evidence.

b) Even this half-hearted attempt to back up your blather with something of substance fails to meet your claim of "they will not support ANY GOP nominee."

c) You still haven't even tried to explain away the ethically bankrupt actions of the GOP in not delaying the hearings so their own people could consider the facts, even if one believed you.

FIFY.

Red, it's really simple. If you have an actual quote, provide the source. If you don't have an actual quote, admit it.

And regardless, admit that even you know the GOP was inappropriate for not postponing the hearings, especially because they don't need the Democrats to pass this candidate, if they think he should be.

It's not responsible. It's not wise. And it's not a surprise.

Thank you Red for reminding us how patriots and statesmen view the bench. It’s a refreshing contrast to the reproachable approach of right wing mafiosi scumbags passing themselves off as conservatives in the republican party.

It’s good there are leaders to show us a way to ditch and bury the crime, terror, and incompetence of the GOP.

Thank you for the actual quotes that prove my point.

They promised to go against anybody the Federalist Society chose.

Not any GOP nominee at all.

Well done!

Compare and contrast with Mitch McConnell's vow to not hold a hearing no matter who Obama nominated.


And still, and again, Red, the hearings needed to be held up until ALL of the senators (or at least their staffs) had a chance to review the 42,000 documents.

And you know it, too, which is why you stopped arguing that point.

And the GOP is once again breaking the law by disenfranchising potential voters so there is less risk that they will lose elections.

GOP, the party of lawbreakers.

More about documents.

The Democrats on the Judiciary Committee have only been allowed to see 7% of them.

No, not news.

Still criminal in intent.
