No heads up to Bernie on the question: "So, what's it like being a Jew Atheist? "

It's always been a bad take on both sides to claim it's a mistake for democrats to do this because it just allows the republicans to do worse things. First of all this would again be the republicans crapping on the country by changing things and if they nominate a horrible Supreme Court justice in the future they get to own all of it.

Not opposing gorsuch is exactly what republicans in congress wanted to happen. They would have gotten what they wanted without any more baggage. The republicans are going to have to continue to own their historic treachery. Democrats gave them a pass for a long time and all that did was encourage them to push further and reach farther.

What a win for republicans if they destroy the entire foundation that has been part of every previous SCOTUS nomination before now. That really is some high level game theory any rock head could be proud of, for sure.

Not really considering it's just like most people; only wanting to listen to the only thing that tells him what he wants to hear. Hopefully they realize they have to be very careful now and don't inadvertently trigger a war.

Think PAST THE SALE. Now everyone, including you, is talking about the "truthful hyperbole" re: Hillary getting a question a year ago while Trump is robbing the country blind. You just got sixth dimensionally checkmated by a MASTER PERSUADER and WIZARD, son.

Sushy just came.

Well we all grew up eating PB&J right? I guess that fell out of favor with the helicopter parent crowd.

Yeah none of the questions in any of the debates were a surprise or not being prepared for. That he is bringing it up five months later is absolutely nutso.

I think it's somewhere on Pence's desk, between the gay boy porn and the $5 off 1950s hair style coupons.

If Clarence Thomas was nominated then why are the dems going to push it on this selection this time?

If they hold or try to hold this up Trump could pack the court with 3 very conservative selections.

He is the president knot head.

Your party is cool with using treason and not allowing black people to vote, in addition to countless other less despicable things, to grab power. Lol at them ever not using simple legal means available to them to get the Supreme Court nominees they want, whether Dems played nice or not.

It'll bounce back the first terrorist attack against the US - bigly.

Yawn

Merrick Garland.

True enough on the missile, but you probably should read all of the Federalist Papers before you send them out to everyone, not just the select few that are the more popular.
Seems a bit self defeating. "We're not going going to kill our way out of this, but also all those tweebs don't know the military industrial complex like I do"

Hummm

What gave it away?

Was it a year's worth of watching unprecedented displays of narcissism about everything from his hand/penis size to having the best words ever?

Was it his pathological lying on a scale never before seen from a candidate to elected official?

Was it his clear detachment from reality at thinking his inauguration pic showed bigger crowds since Reagan?

Is bringing up Hillary getting fed a debate question 6 months ago really the alarm bell that causes everyone to smack their heads with the realization that we have a mentally ill president?

That's not even fair to mentally ill people. Trump is lazy and has no discipline whatsoever. Plenty of mentally ill people focus and work hard and read books every day.

So your argument is "You better let Gorsuch in or else Trump will get nasty and put 3 more conservatives in!"?

Really?

Yep. Saying Trump is mentally ill is a huge disservice to the millions of everyday Americans that suffer from mental illness.

A Supreme court judge has never been filibustered.

Not true.

OK, humor me.

Why isn't Merrick Garland a member of the SCOTUS right now?

Merrick Garland.

rara is surely feeling clever about the GOP "but we didn't filibuster Garland" line (even if he can't even repeat it correctly here), as if anyone is stupid enough to believe that what the GOP did to Garland was so much better or that Democrats can only oppose the GOP in ways the GOP deems as acceptable
