William Pryor: Too many execrable rulings and writings for room here. You’d need a library.

Anyone who was an assistant to that odious Bill Bennett shouldn’t even be considered.

Diane Sykes:She showed her anti-reproductive-choice views in providing a lenient sentence to two anti-abortion protesters who had to be forcibly removed from blocking the entrance to a Milwaukee abortion clinic and had previously been arrested 100 times for such offenses; Sykes nevertheless praised them for their “fine character” and expressed “respect” for the “ultimate goals” the blockade “sought to achieve.”

She asserted in dissent that a jury verdict against a criminal defendant should have been upheld even though one of the jurors did not understand English, that a prosecutor should be immune from a claim that he fabricated false evidence that wrongly convicted a man for 17 years, and that a conviction under federal law against someone convicted of domestic violence for possessing firearms should be reversed and that the law itself could well be unconstitutional, in disagreement with all 10 other judges on the court of appeals

Pryor: would deny gay men and lesbians the equal protection of the laws. He believes that it is constitutional to imprison gay men and lesbians for expressing their sexuality in the privacy of their own homes and has voluntarily filed an amicus brief in the Supreme Court urging the Court to uphold a Texas law that criminalizes such private consensual activity.

Of course not. He’s going to win because he’s a winner. He’s not a loser. He’s a winner. So he’s going to win.

Possible spotty vetting indicated by the fact Don Willett has often mocked the would-be President who wants to appoint him.

Should make for some awkward questions from lying media. Sad!

Pointless because the Dems will have filibuster votes to block these right wing nuts.

Which one do you prefer, Berniebots? Or hey, let’s make it two…it’s not like Ginsberg is in good health and Breyer is getting up in years too. Don’t you want to help your candidate choose his SCOTUS nominees?

No! It was Obama who jumped the gun by politicizing the court with his nomination during an election year. Trump is being a statesman.

That. Is. So. OBVIOUS (you, LOSER!).

This is hardball and dRumpf’s supreme groveling to the powers that be, even risking firing up as many Democrats as Republicants.

There’s not a doubt in my mind that Majority Leader McConnell would go fully nuclear and eliminate the filibuster for these votes… because “the people have spoken” and it’s OK if you’re a Republican.

I would bet he could not identify even one of them in a line up

The LIST was compiled by the same committee, brought together for one last run, of the VERY SAME PEOPLE who brought us Danforth Quayle and Sara (Wink Wink) Palin.
