Why didn’t they bring her up for a vote back in December? Was this a trap by Reid to make the weasels look bad? That’s all I got. Reid is a master of jiu jitsu when it comes to senate politics.
I’ve tried to email a variety of political types. I rarely get a response and when I do it usually is some canned verbage that just makes me angrier. McCain is my senior senator and recently I emailed him a couple of times. Now apparently I am on his list serve so every two weeks I get two copies of his latest crapola that I didn’t ask for. Thus far I’ve not found a way to get unsubcribed to his email list. I’l probably hafta wait until he retires or dies.
((sigh))
The one person of national import who did respond to me was Morris Udall. This was before the email era. We were frequently exchanging letters. And his were not signed by a secretary either.

Like I said, it was McConnell getting back at Reid. McConnell said he would. He even indicated that this delay was his revenge.
The Terrapin is a petulant man.

Apparently it was McConnell who delayed the confirmation into the new Congress. At least that is what he said he wanted in December. Look for his comment a ways into the article…

I know. I’m not talking about turtle man. Why didn’t Reid bring it for a vote in December before the weasels took over leadership in January. Reid could’ve brought it for a vote back in December when president Obama nominated her. It must be some trap to make conservs look bad with minority voters.
I will try to call Tammy Baldwin’s office tomorrow. They have been wonderful and responsive on other issues in the past.
It’s likely tilting at windmills, but I just emailed Rachel. This kind of thing is right in her wheelhouse. She’s a busy lady, so I’m not holding my breath.
I really, really want to know the impact on these young victims if they were compromised to get to the confirmation vote.
Got it.
And I just emailed Josh on this too … asking his staff to see if they can clarify,.
Congratulations Loretta.

Yeah only white billionaires are allowed to have abortions as long as they keep sending their mistresses out of the country to do the procedure.
So…they guy who held this up voted in favor of it once it finally got there. We can only conclude that his motivation was solely because he cannot abide the idea of a Black Man in the White House. I’m completely disgusted with the whole GOP. They care nothing about the needs of the country or the people…and every day they demonstrate that. We need to vote these people out and get the country back on track.
