We are getting off to kind of a rough start," McConnell told USA Today.
I’d have to agree. These nominees are almost unbelievably bad.
The pretend pearl-clutching and false memory of his acceptance of Obama’s election mean he’s senile or evil. I’ll go with evil.
Merrick Garland: Sad!. Thats a travesty of our great political institution.
showing his speed and stamina at the finish McTurtle speaks…
slooooooooooowly… so he can understand himself
What a thin shell you have!
Wait til you nominate some judges, Mr. Turtle. Then you will see obstruction!
There should be an 8th circle of Hell for liars like the Turtle.
I don’t have much hope. I would love complete stoppage but you are talking about Dems here. They fold easily. Just ask Dubya.
I forgot what Dante’s 8th circle is for, but I remember seeing Pope Innocent III, and I think they had to push rocks around forever. I would rather see McTurtle on the hot burning sands of the third ring of the 7th circle. Tecnically, I think that was for sodomites, but other perversions could qualify.
The most important part of the nomination process is supposed to happen before the candidate gets to the hearings by making sure there are no major problems in their background to slow things. Trump did not do his homework and has no one to blame but himself
Yep blame the Democrats when the transition team didn’t do their due diligence, when Trump cast people that have complex financials, and the most egregious is that they have no knowledge of the department they are going to run.
Awwww…need a safe space to cry in, snowflake cuck?
Fuck you, McConnell. Embrace the blowback, motherfucker.
Qualified and without scandal or taint is the exception.
I certainly appreciate Obama’s words of encouragement , but seriously folks
We’re fucked
Obviously, you’re a lot more familiar with Dante, or maybe just with Hell, than I am.
(I have, however, resolved that I am going to Hell. When I see all the people who are sure that they are going to Heaven, I realize that spending eternity with them would be truly hellish.)
Don’t forget Schumer, too. Now he’s going to call out billionaires and bankers? Fuck off, Chuck. Take your niece with you.
Ha! Should such a place exist I’ll see you there when not catching up with my relatives.
Most presdiedent elects vet their candidates before nominating them.
I’m playing it safe. Every week I spend a few hours listening to the most insipid, boring, lifeless modern church music… trying to acclimatize myself, just in case.
It’s my own version of Pascal’s wager.
Or if they have any knowledge of the department, have been openly hostile toward it in the past like DeVos and Pruitt.
