Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has passed away

After what Democrats tried to do to Kavanaugh, I've got zero confidence we'll see any statesmanship.

What about what Republicans did to Garland? Why are you so hung up on Kavanaugh? He was eventually confirmed. Garland never got a vote. Which came first? Which is worse?

Seriously dude?

So if we get Lamar on board this is a dead letter.

Agreed. Centrist, Constitutionalist. Period.

I disagree. What is this fascination with being a centrist? Trying to cater to both political ideologies out of some misplaced sense of being viewed as centrist is, in fact, antithetical to and the opposite of constitutionalism.

Put a damned constitutionalist in, period.

If that is accurate... then this is moot. Romney will get on board with that.

Correction. That was grassley in there, not Romney. This would seal the deal if Romney comes on board b

You think the dems have been nuts already...just wait. They will be desperate and even more dangerous.

 

[BreatheUT]

Her wish is completely irrelevant.

And to be honest the comment could be fake and made up.

 

[BowlBrother85]

Yes. Garland did not get a vote. Kavanaugh got a vote.

How appropriate

Ginsberg was white...I thought only black lives mattered

I would hope it is , if not, it is.a pretty pathetic wish on the way out the door.

LOL

Kavanaugh had his character assassinated and went through hell. Garland just didn’t get a vote.

Nobody has stated they would vote no. They have implied they wouldn’t vote. Murkowski even voted “present” last time

 

[ajvol01]

It's almost like you just started following politics.

Lame duck lol

 

[FallCreekVols]

I think the last nomination when the Dems showed their collective asses made old Mitch remove the gloves.

THIS

It puts an exclamation point on her political bias.

Boo hoo, cry me a river and all the other metaphors. Garland was qualified and a reasonable nominee. He didn't get a vote. Kavanaugh is on the court.

I think you make a really good point.

 

[DancingOutlaw]

Don't you think though that every justice needs to think about retirement around age 75 whenever there's a palatable administration in office? It's common sense.

If you look at the history of the SC this stay till I die thing is relatively new. Most only did it for a few years. The lifetime appointment is to remove any political pressure from the positions, as it should.

 

[Orangeburst]

Now the libs know how we feel about Pelosi....lol

 

[evillawyer]

Boom. Romney with the FU to Trump
