Trump releases list of 3 possibilities for Supreme Court vacancy

I pick up my dogs poop with more respect than I have for Bennet.

[Aloha_Shooter]

Any chance Bennet will vote for him, being a fellow Coloradan?

Or is being a Democrat more powerful than being from the same state.

Bennet won't give a damn what other Coloradans think for another 5 years.

^^^this.

Bennet is another piece of shit that somehow keeps getting reelected in spite of all reason....

[BlasterBob]

We have a bunch of Bennet type ding bat politicians here in Illinois. What a bunch of "sad sacks".

So they are corrupt too?

The Senate Democrats chose to filibuster a SCOTUS nominee for the first time in the 230 year history of the Senate. The Republican majority has exercised the "nuclear option". There will be an up/down vote on Gorsuch tomorrow requiring a simple majority to confirm.

Senate speeds up Gorsuch confirmation vote

[Eric P]

But wait. The so called nuclear option is the only option detailed in the Constitution.

Gorsuch has been confirmed and will be sworn in on Monday.

"Its just a damn piece of paper." Al Gore.
Actually its animal skin and its more than that its the written version of an idea for a Government that before then has never been tried before. With rules to keep power hungry people from making up rules as they go along once they are in power. And a list of rights that restrict a Government over its people its meant to serve humbly. With even a provision to rebel and tear it all down and start over if it becomes too corrupt. In its pure form its like the best like the best drug. Its words fill the soul better than the best song. Its only flaw is that it cares too much for the people and lets the people speak through voting even when there are 45 Senators that don't want to hear from the unwashed masses who they believe exist to provide them with wealth and power. When the reality is they aren't worth the suit they are wearing.
Now we wait for case to come before the court to see if they can unhold the constition and make all of our efforts to get them there worth the trouble. Or if they are going to be seduced by the power and kick the can down the road until the total fall of America and then the Constitution will be nothing more than a piece of paper. Far less important finding something to eat or protecting your family from roaming gangs that take over after the Government falls apart. With no laws to protect us I'm sure it would be something like that. Dibbs on Al Gores mansion BTW.
Anyway. Sorry about the rant. I'm glad to hear about the gears of government moving and that we have a full Supreme Court again.

Gorsuch has been confirmed and will be sworn in on Monday.

This is excellent news!

We win in spite of the communists attempts to derail Gorsuch and put another constitutionally and ethically deficient "judge" like Sotomayor or Kagen on the bench.
