Just seen on the tube that Obama" Will" nominate someone soon. ------ No doubt about that. It virtually ends there, though.

Well, now I'm sure that Mitch McConnell won't let us down. This is what worries me the most.

I just walked into a room and was told that by a friend of mine. I thought she was joking. When I found out she wasn't, my blood ran cold.
This next election could be the most important in our lifetime.
RIP for the Justice. He did a lot for this country over the years.

If we're betting on McConnell, we're f'ked. Well, right now, it's all we've got. McConnell is a puzzy of the highest order & his track record of having a spine is not good. Likely Reid will outflank him but I'm saying some extra prayers tonight. MM

Not only will he try, he'll have the MSM beating the drum every night for months, against those nasty republicans obstructionists! Mitch will cave. Keep an eye out for this name, Sri Srinivasan, he was confirmed by the Senate on a 97 - 0 vote three years ago. Sri Srinivasan: Supreme Court justice in the making? USA Today May 23,2013 Today, Srinivasan is principal deputy solicitor general in the office that represents the nation in court. He has argued more than two dozen cases at the Supreme Court, first for President George W. Bush's Justice Department, then for Obama's. He's won accolades from a dozen former solicitors general and principal deputies dating back to the Reagan administration and from 28 of his fellow law clerks from the 1997 Supreme Court term. If you look up his campaign contributions, you'll notice he donated to both Gore and Obama. They repubs better not fool themselves.

Is there ever been a case where the senate withheld confirmation for a year for a SC justice? Not in modern times. Kagan: 3 months Sotomayor: 2 months Alito: 2 months Meirs: withdrawn same month Roberts: 2 months (well, two attempts at one month each) Breyer: 2 months Ginsburg: 2 months Thomas: 3 months Souter: 3 months Kennedy: 3 months Bork: 3 months (rejected 1987) Scalia: 3 months Rehnquist: 3 months There was a two year period in 1844 when Justice Henry Baldwin died in office and was not replaced for two years due to partisan gridlock. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nominations_to_the_Supreme_Court_of_the_United_States
Remember why, specifically, the Bill of Rights was written...remember its purpose. It was written to limit the power of government over the individual.
There is no believing a liar, even when he speaks the truth.

RIP Justice Scalia. You fought the good fight.. Please put in a good word for your fellow Americans who love their country as well as the foundation on which it was built.
Thanks!

Avg joe blow american could care less who sits on the Supreme Court. As long as they can wake up in the morning grab their iphone and update Facebook all is fine in the world..
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Absolutely NO ONE that Obama would nominate will be good for conservatives, NO ONE. He can not be allowed to have his nomination confirmed, period.

First off i'm NOT a dem. or Bernie or Hitlary supporter so save it. Just using this as an example. If you still think we can save this country with the ballot box, just ask Bernie how beating Hitlary by 22 points worked out for him. We won't get this country back unless we TAKE it back. The reasons we crossed the pond in the first place are all back in place plus some. But hey that's ok just get another totto, lip pierced, change your hair from purple to pink, wax your chest hair, smoke another bowl, and be sure to vote. We'll see how that works out for us shortly.
R.I.P. Mr. Scalia

If squidge's #s are right, 2-3 months usual to confirmation, this ain't good at all. Non-stop nagging from Dems.

I hope and pray the conservatives, especially the half wimp christians that think God has everything in control ( am a Christian and vote on everything) , the dumbazz spoiled brat gun owners ,and the lazy conservatives, that did not vote last election wake up and realize this is why ya vote for the more conservative of the two every four years, cause if you don't , we have Obama nominees heading for the Supreme Court. Wouldn't be nearly this concerned of Romney was in office. This may wake up these luke warm voters , and I don't have much hope in the senate at all.
But the fruits of the spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,faithfulness, Gentleness and self control. Against such things there is no law. Galations 5: 22&23
