It's Official. No Obama nominee

[bodecea]

I don't have to pretend. It's very obvious. The Original Intent was for the Senate to give Advice and Consent. They, like stubborn children, are doin

It says "and with the Advise and Consent". That means they give their permission. It is not mandated by the President.

Exactly...which means the Senate has a job to do. They don't do their job...not even to turn down a nominee....well, that's gonna make for some sweet political ads.

But they aren't offering their Advice and Consent, now are they?

Since they aren't doing their duty, maybe Obama should just skip the part they are refusing to do?

Of course they giving advice and they advise that they aren't going to let Obama have his nominee.

Give it up. Obama can't do squat.

He can certainly put forth a candidate.

He can also put on a rainbow jock and prance up and down Pennsylvania Ave too.

I do think President Trump will appoint good middle of the road honorable people with zero political bias to the bench when he takes office. Great men such as Judge Roy Moore and David Dukes.

President Obama should present his choice to the Senate soon...Then the Ball is in their court as to whether they do their job or not.
We hear that every 4 years.

Too late. The Senate Judiciary Committee just voted not to hold any hearings.

GOP Judiciary: No hearing on Obama court nominee

Then I'm sure the Democrats are creating some political ads for all the Democrats running against GOP Senators as we speak.

Tho, with a little pushing, they will break....they want to keep their seats, I'm sure.

Any such ads will benefit the Republicans more than Democrats. There's a lot of political mileage in opposing Obama.

There's a lot of political mileage in showing that the Republicans won't do their job....again. Match it up with the government shutdown they staged. Delicious.

They're doing their job by protecting the country from a tyrannical Supreme Court justice that will decide based on ideology vice the Constitution.

Um....You. don't.even.know.who.President Obama.would.nominate.

Yes. Their job isn't to sit in a corner and pout.

It would be funny if President Obama put Robert Bork forward.....

The people voted the Republicans into the majority, to defend us from Obama's communist agenda.

That will require a down vote...and that's ok.

President Obama isn't a Communist nor will he appoint one.

This makes the 2016 election one of the 3 most critical in US history. The next 100 years of our nation will be shaped by this election and historians will point to it as a major shift in our courts and foreign policy.

We must get the numbers out to vote Republican in 2016.

We hear that every 4 years.

He can take his choice and shove it up his islamic ass.

Nope.....you have no say in the matter. You are powerless even with your 214 IQ.

President Obama will do his job and appoint a Justice. Then it will be up to the Senate to do its job and either approve or reject that appointment. If they do nothing, then they fail to do their job as per the Constitution.

Please post the applicable constitutional article/section/paragraph that confirms your statement in regards to the Senate.

Kindly note post #32...where I copy the pertinent paragraph in the U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 2.

I will proceed from the assumption that you have some actual knowledge of the English language.

"He shall have Power, by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, to make Treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur;"

This, obviously, means the advice and consent of two-thirds of the Senate present is required in order for the president to make a valid, binding treaty. Without it, he cannot.

Do you agree, or disagree? If disagree, please indicate the specific language that is the basis of your disagreement.

"and he shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate, shall APPOINT (my emphasis) Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, JUDGES OF THE SUPREME COURT (my emphasis), and all other Officers of the United States, whose Appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by Law"

Again, obviously, the president may nominate at will, but may not appoint without, again, the advice and consent of two-thirds of the Senate present.

Do you agree, or disagree? If disagree, please indicate the specific language that is the basis of your disagreement.

"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."

States that Congress may permit the president to fill vacancies in the "inferior" offices noted in the phrase on his own, but is not required to do so. Irrelevant to the question at hand.

So, this is your proof of your contention? If so, please indicate where in the article and section to which you referred the Senate is required to take any advise and consent action on a presidential nominee.

Be specific.

That's right. The Senate has just officially ruled they will not even consider any Obama SCJ nominee.
This means President Trump and his REP majority Senate will be able to choose, during President Trump's two terms about 5-6 REP SCJ's.
This will fundamentally affect the social direction of America for decades!
To GOD be the praise!
GOP Judiciary: No hearing on Obama court nominee
How did your "phone and pen" work out for you asshole?
If you hadn't acted like the piece of shit you are you may have had more cooperation across the aisle.
Hillary just got news today a judge has questioned her motive for having a secret private server hidden in her bathroom closet.
I give Hillary a couple of weeks before she drops out for 'health reasons'. Leaving Bernie to go against Trump.
Blame Debbie. She was the one who told Biden and Warren to piss off. "Theirs services were not required".

More likely than that, Democrats win the Senate because America rejects the party of "no"s final obstructionist stand. Obama submits his nominee during the first week of January, and the new Democrat Senate confirms him or her.
