No better way to energize the DEM voters than to block Obama's nominations...

[Dont Taz Me Bro]

It will be wonderful to see Dems turning out in droves to install HRC because the GOP is obstructing Obama's nominations.....

Would they? I don't know that the average voter even pays attention to this shit. Either way, the president has the right to appoint a new justice and the Senate should give his nomination a vote.

I would argue you do not know many voters then. You're right about the 2nd part....even if it's a pro-forma thing....you do your duty.

I think there is going to be a lot more things on people's mind than a Supreme Court pick. The only people who are going to get riled up about that are the partisans and activists who don't need motivation to go vote. I don't see many out there who generally don't bother to vote suddenly infuriated because a judicial pick is being blocked.

I haven't said it for a while but eventually the GOP will run out of either toes or bullets. It seems as though they have found another foot's worth of toes to aim at.

It's further confirmation that most on the partisan right have no interest in sound, responsible governance.

if the Republicans don't put up a fight on the SC they will lose their own base's interest.

They need to have vote though. They need to do their duty. They have nothing to stand on except politics for not giving the President's nominee a hearing.

With regards for the vote, it seems Obama didn't think so back in 2006 when Alito was being confirmed, and he voted to "continue debating" i.e. filibuster the appointment.

I'm sure hearings will be held.

THE PRESIDENT HAS THE RIGHT TO NOMINATE A CANDIDATE.
THE SENATE HAS THE RIGHT TO IGNORE THE CANDIDATE.

Forgive the dems on the threads here Contumacious. They're a little fuzzy on separation of powers. How do I know? The same evening Obergefell 2015 was announced, this display appeared on the Whitehouse. So, we all know it takes days of approval and paperwork to make any changes at the Whitehouse. The muted colors alone, less bright than white would have posed a security issue. Think of the timing and do the math. The Obama Administration was advertising to the world that they knew in advance how Obergefell would come down.

And when the Judicial can rewrite the Constitution to include "just some deviant sex behaviors that are our favorites...but not others" (like polygamy, which is discriminatory towards polygamists) using the 14th Amendment, to cover marriage, which isn't a guaranteed right in the Constitution, just like driving isn't either (the first if not qualified: danger to children, the second if not qualified, a danger to other drivers), then we have the Judicial doing the Legislature's job, and the Executive having pre-knowledge (influence over) what the Judicial is doing. The Legislature's power (the closest to the People in working practice) has been all but castrated.

So when a cult like what the dems have become feels unbridled tyrannical power, don't expect them to understand how the Legislature has any intrinsic power to balance the Executive's demand that we unbalance the Supreme Court to lean hard liberal left. They just won't get it.

"What? Limitations to our cult-steamroller? Brakes on the runaway train???? Are you talking Greek or what?.."...

You know they don't even know why they want radical change anymore. I think at this point it's just a movement with a life of its own that helps them numb the pain of the psychological wounds they clearly have and clearly aren't dealing with.. But why should the rest of us suffer because they won't recapitulate their lives?

I agree with most of what you said in the post.

Agree that polygamy should be permitted but so should whatever you call "deviant sex behaviors". The purpose of the Constitution is to control the government bureaucrats not to control my fellow Americans.

either way, its going to energize the Left to vote and NOT for a rw'er

The GOP has obstructed no one as Obama has yet to make a nomination.

Right, but they announced they are not going to have hearings....

“The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president,”

The Republican Senate was voted into office to do a job as well. Their constituents expect them to only approve a candidate in the mold of Scalia. That's not obstruction. It's called doing the job the voters asked them to do. But feel free to keep playing games.

Bullshit.

In the first place, in no way do you have to replace a justice with a clone of that Justice. If that were the case and Alito died, should the GOP look for another Alito or Thomas or Scalia? It's a crazy assertion to even dream up much less voice.

Secondly, thousands upon thousands in those states did not vote for whomever their senator is...should they simply have no say on the decision of their Senator?

Lastly, if you don't do your duty, you're obstructing the process. That is merely a definition...feel free to look it up.

With that said, Democrats have a bigger issue if Hillary keeps picking up her Super Delegates even when Bernie picks up the votes.

She'll be picking 3-4 other SC nominees as well. Having the GOP properly neutered by public opinion into not putting up much of a fight will be poetic justice.

Alternate title for this thread: "No better way to energize the GOP vote than to enlighten the middle bloc as to what will happen if another Liberal Justice is appointed".

Think of the Kim Davis syndrome and specifically why she was jailed (not generalizations with the candidates dancing around the issue). Also: Is Gay Marriage Void? New York v Ferber (1982) Etc. and the arguments in that thread...

You think crystalizing all of the shit the GOP is against will help the GOP? Bring it on.

If so, that's great. If it pulls Rubio off of the campaign circuit for a while that's even more wonderful. Hopefully, Teddy will keep on trucking. He's roadkill come November.

I've already e-mailed Rubio this morning and told him he has lost my vote. I'm SURE it will turn him around.

 

[Correll]

This is true.

On the other hand, we CAN'T allow a liberal court.

The damage to be done to our society would just be to great.

This really does work out well for Hillary <cough> motive<cough>.

Anything that makes you guys look dumber than normal is a good thing. This is probably the perfect storm in terms of how dumb you look and what extent you'll go through to maintain that appearance.

There is nothing dumb about wanting to stop a Justice that from your perspective would be terrible for America.


Did you like the blatant anti-white discrimination in the New Haven Firefighter case?

Wanting is one thing. Ignoring your constitutional duty trying is another.

 

[OldLady]

Scalia was not even dead for 24 hours and that F'ING POS you voted for made this announcement, he is lower than whale shit...

His nominee will be blocked, they better have thick skin...

If she doesn't get indicted you mean...

O'Connell announced he wasn't going to entertain a nomination well before the White House got off the golf course. Whale shit right back at ya.

Yeah, me neither.

I would have no problem with the Republican Senate rejecting a nominee. Refusing to go through the nomination process is what people object to.

Old article from the Wall Street Urinal:

Most Americans Can’t Name a U.S. Supreme Court Justice, Survey Says

So yeah, no better way to energize Dem voters.

Right.

True, me included until Scalia passed. But it's on the MSM news and they're talking about it at my water cooler.

HUH?

Are you saying that it is possible for Obama to get serious and nominate someone who is not a Marxist Leninist?

Asked on WRNN 99.5 FM in South Carolina if his fellow candidates would say the same thing about waiting to nominate a new justice if there was a Republican president, Carson replied, "No, they wouldn't."

If the justice is a leftist that want to legalize blatantly unconstitutional anti-white discrimination as in the New Have case, were ALL DEMOCRATICALLY APPOINTED Justices voted in favor of anti-white discrimination,

then it is their Constitutional duty to vote no, or to prevent the passage of the Justice though legislative means.

Anything else is betraying the interests and rights of their constituents and their oath to uphold the Constitution.
