'The McConnell rule': Some Dems say the vote for Justice Kennedy's replacement should be delayed


https://www.yahoo.com/news/mcconnell...201440180.html

“Senator McConnell set a precedent when he refused to hold a hearing on Merrick Garland, and he should stick to the rule he set,” Sen. Chris Murphy, D-Conn., said in a statement. “Under the McConnell rule, the Senate shouldn’t consider any nominee for the Supreme Court until January, and I expect Republicans in the Senate to honor the rule they all agreed to just two short years ago.”

No. The Democrats and Chucky Schumer set the precedent when they denied Bush his right as President to nominate a new justice and then it allowed Obama to do so. That the Republicans paid them back is fair and square.

Bush had 19 months left in Office. Obama was truly a lame duck in his last year.

We all know the Dems never thought they'd get poked in the eye by their own bullshit! PERIOD!

bajhahaaa

but it happened and now they want to wait till midterms hoping they can regain a majority?

Yeah, Asswipe doesn’t have much to say. It’s surprising. Because he’s pretty stupid. He doesn’t understand his own links he posts. Makes a fool of himself. Just like WTF. BTW, where’s that creeper? I guess he lost interest. He can’t read guys reviews anymore.

You are just about as bad as IB if not worse. The article you posted even states that Bush was not denied a nomination to the Supreme Court.

President Bush never got the opportunity to appoint another Justice after Schumer spoke in 2007, so the matter was rendered moot.

Schumer did not say block him by the way. He did say he needed to prove the nomination would be a worthy candidate.

it's Harry Reid's rule, and now the Dems are getting it shoved up their ass. they invented it. they get to live with it. at least they did it with a Presidential election looming, to try and invoke their own bullshit just for midterms is political suicide. so let them!

actually,, no. Its a biden rule. it pertains only to presidential elections.

Harry Ried's rule had more to do with how judges are nominated as per the change in vote count.

and waco, you're right, they're getting their shit thrown back at them.

Elections have consequences I've been told.

you could call it the Biden rule circa 1992 or the Reid rule circa 2007. both apply.

what's that old saying? the "crows are coming home to roost?"

Twitler doesn’t give a fuck about the court or the constitution, unless he can use them as bargaining chips in his coup.

Trump cares about the Constitution more than your false idol Obama ever did, you pig.

and he's done more to restore a constitutional America in 18 months than Obama did to destroy it in 8 years. and the best is yet to come you retard.

you may not like the "New America" Trump is creating but the rest of us do.

BAHAHAHAAAAAA
