Republican Senator admits Supreme Court block is Partisan

GOP Senator Gets Honest: 'Trust Me, We Will Not Allow The Supreme Court To Flip'

“No, trust me, we will not allow the Supreme Court to flip,” Johnson told a Wisconsin radio station on Friday. “It’s not going to happen.”

“When other Americans, other than the members of the press, can get their message out, the press’s power is reduced. You engage in campaign finance reform, which restricts free speech, that makes a few members of the press have all the more power. So the press is really not for freedom of speech. They like restrictions in speech because it gives them more power. So again, they want to see the Supreme Court flipped. I got that.”

In an attempt to block campaign finance reform...Senate Republicans are blocking a Supreme Court nomination, to prevent it from being "flipped". There is nothing the Republicans have against the nominee Obama put up in particular...it's all just partisan obstruction of Constitutional duties.

It's what Democrats would do if roles were reversed. They've admitted it. But thanks for the "revelation". smh lol

Except the roles have been reversed and St. Raygun got his nominee through.

Wow, Republicans are partisans! I'll let everyone in on another secret, the Democrats are partisan to! If the roles were reversed the Democratic Party would do the same.

Lol!

 

[Stephanie]

Good ole Hufferpufferpaint, gots to keep their leftwing members all foaming at the mouth over things their PARTY has DONE themselves more than ONCE. what kind of place feeds this to their members all so they can PAY THEIR BILLS? LOW

 

[Nyvin]

Wow, Republicans are partisans! I'll let everyone in on another secret, the Democrats are partisan to! If the roles were reversed the Democratic Party would do the same.

Lol!

Except that they didn't....Kennedy got confirmed, and Bork at least got hearings.

What do you mean "admits"? They were clear all along why they would not hear obama's pick. Why pretend it was some kind of revelation?

And partisan politics had nothing to Bork not being confirmed?

There is no time frame in the Constitution, to hold Senate hearings.

 

[Iceweasel]

It's not partisan...it's Constitutional. Obama only gets three fifths of a presidency...

Is that some lib twist to make it sound racist?

"Republican Senator admits Supreme Court block is Partisan"

...which comes as no surprise.

CNN.com - Democrats grill Supreme Court nominee - Jan 11, 2006

You're citing Alito's hearing. A man who not only got a hearing, but was confirmed.

 

[Wry Catcher]

Why, hell yes its partisan.

Obama has been bending the Congress over and making them bring their own vaseline for 7 long years. Never negotiated shit in good faith.

Now Congress has the chance to give him a dose of his own medicine. It would be malpractice not to.

Fuck Obama. Fuck Socialists.

In what dimension do you live (obviously the demented dimension)?

Reagan made the nomination in the year prior, not in the actual election year. But thanks for playing.

Then show us an example of the Democrats ever actually doing this.

You can't. You're literally offering us your imagination as justification for republican obstructionism. Its like republicans sniveling about Super Delegates stealing an election as justification for a brokered convention.

Why don't you present one instance of Obama 'bending the Congress over' so I can prove you an idiot.

Good Lord. Have you not been paying attention? It's pretty well known by everyone watching that the Democrats do not believe in supreme court nominations/hearings during an election year. This is such a known fact that I'm not even going to provide a link. Do your own research.

 

[Toddsterpatriot]

It's not partisan...it's Constitutional. Obama only gets three fifths of a presidency...

Eight tenths, maybe he should be President in Cuba?

Translation: you have no such example. As the democrats have *never* done what republicans are doing now.

Ever.

This is absolutely unprecedented. And you're literally citing your imagination as justification for unprecedented republican obstructionism.

Did someone say "obstructionism"???????

Dems cry 'obstructionists' while House passed over 350 bills that sit on Harry Reid's desk | BizPac Review

I wasn't aware that the House sends the Senate a Supreme Court nominee.

I could have sworn that was the president.

But you want to talk "partisan" when Harry Reid practically shut down the government over "politics"?????

Gee, I think your hypocrisy is pretty obvious on that one.....

So just remember the immortal words of your "Magic Negro"......

"Elections have consequences".....
