Cruz Wins Iowa

Yup, that too.

The right must reclaim the presidency, the wrong has had it far too long.

And Hillary's already said what a great idea it would be to nominate Obama for Chief Justice.

The man has never sat on 'the bench' in his life. Being the head of the executive branch doesn't come even close to qualifying a person to serve as a judge... At any level.

I wanted to punch a wall when I heard those stupid words come out of her stupid mouth.

Supreme Court picks outweigh the Senate and the House especially in light of the poor performance of the GOP the last 8 years.

But Supreme Court nominations can't procede without confirmation by the Senate. Both of Obamas nominees, Kagan and Sotomayor, were confirmed by a Democrat controlled Senate.

Being a community organizer didn't come even close to qualifying him for the US Senate, much less Presidency. What's your point? Since when have the Clintons ever cared about what was right?

His Constitutional Law teaching will get him in. He like, knows all about the Constitution already.

He should know it. In his mind there isn't one, of importance anyway.

True but the current crop of GOP occupants gives me no hope that they would turn down another Kagan or Sotomayor, they'll just roll over and let The Bern get his way.

This also assumes the GOP keeps control of the Senate ... I don't think its mathematically possible for the Dems to take back the house this year, but the Senate is not 100% secure.

To understand or remind yourself of the concept, first watch the video:

Then consider:

It was CNN who said that Ben Carson was exiting the race, not us. You must be mistaken.

I didn’t know I was a Canadian citizen all of my adult life. I never supported Trade Promotion Authority, I’ve always been against it. You must be mistaken.

I’ve never supported taking away ethanol subsidies. You are mistaken.
I never voted for the Corker/Cardin amendment, I am against the Iran deal – you must be mistaken.
I’ve never take money from Washington DC lobbyists, nor do I want it – you must be mistaken.
I didn’t want 500,000 more H1B immigrant work visa’s, you are mistaken.

I never said ‘birthright citizenship’ was guaranteed in the constitution. I’ve never supported amnesty, or legal status, or a pathway to citizenship for illegal aliens, you must be misremembering.
We didn’t fail to disclose anything on our Federal Election Commission filings, you’re just remembering wrong again…..

Remember the Democrat (and MSM) definition of bipartisanship: Republicans roll over for Democratic agendas no matter who has the majority. When the GOP has the majority, they should be conscious of the the Democratic President's prerogatives and not interfere or should be sensitive to the minority points of view. When the GOP is a minority but can filibuster, they are cautioned to not be obstructionist. When the GOP can't even filibuster, they're told they are irrelevant and should just shut up.

I blame McConnell for not putting up a fight against Kagan and Sotomayor. Neither one of them belongs on the court but we're stuck with that for decades. We cannot afford another Democratically-selected SC justice, especially not to replace Thomas or Scalia, and we need to replace Ginsberg with someone that actually thinks and considers the Constitution in light of American history and heritage instead of what foreign courts think and do.
