Because obstruction is an important component of the GOP agenda.
Translation: we’re all scared shitless.
The return of the cornpone shithead. Must hurt him when he’s not camera being a douchebag.
Blocking the President from your own Party from making recess appointments is definitely a vote of no confidence and raises my eyebrows. I’m not so sure those bills go nowhere.
Well, hell, Cotton. Up yours. You’re just one more Kremlin apologist in a long line waiting to kiss ass.
I don’t see Cotton going very far himself, actually. The time of vying to be the most extreme wingnut on every issue may be drawing to a close, and Cotton’s a zero-charisma zone anyway.
Saves us a phone call to the Koch brothers and the Waltons(not the nice ones)
Those dead eyes of his remind me of Steven Miller only with more hair.
I’m not a close follower of his, but he seems to have fewer accomplishments than anyone not named Ted Cruz.
I see that he shaved the perma-stupid. First time I’ve seen it as a mistake. Really a no-win situation for him.
“That’s simply Congress taking its responsibility seriously to provide advice and consent to all nominations,” Cotton said.
Merrick Garland did not return calls for comment.
“Seems to be Congress is trying to constrain the President.”
Seems to me Congress is trying to protect America from this President.
Well, since DT apparently doesn’t understand our government and the balance of power, he needs to be taught. The Senate is teaching, but is DT learning?
This from a man whose reach far exceeds his grasp.
Attention!
Any of you army vets out there that served under Cotton in Iraq/Afghanistan I would curious to know what type of officer he was?
Dates, times and places along with you thought of him not as a man, but a army officer!
Myself as a young marine grunt (Vietnam 67-68) served under a few John Wayne- Rambo types officers that I wouldn’t take a round for, so what do you have to say about Cotton?
Cotton needs kickin’, so bad…
While DeVos, Tilllerson, Mnuchin, Sessions, Carson and Perry show just how seriously Congress is taking its responsibility to provide advice and consent.
Sen. Cotton’s beard is the “Rick Perry glasses” of facial hair.
And it doesn’t work for Cotton, either.
Yup. He’s a really hard call in my “Hyperpartisan Ideological Extremist or Kompromat?”* game.
*And no, “both” is not an acceptable answer under the rules. It’s assumed that all Republicans in Congress are hyperpartisan ideological extremists. The question is whether their Putin/Trump apologies are motivated solely by partisanship or whether its also because the Russians are blackmailing them.
No. It has been noticed “learning” is not a tool in his extremely limited toolbox.
Rage, projection, whining, spotlight grabbing, and self-aggrandizement kinda crowd out the Fisher Price toolbox’s space.
