Funniest part to all of this, ok two things:
1) The talk of expanding to 9 to keep from "packing" well that is the very definition of packing. AND they only want it assuming they run the whitehouse and offer up the judges. If Trump, or any R is sitting in white house, talk of expanding would bring up "they are packing" arguments as a bad thing.
2) Politicizing? You bet your sweet ass it's political. But why? Simple, our governemtn made it that way with the way the hearings go. This isn't new. "Borking" is now a verb because of it.
I, for one, am HAPPY Gorsuch has sided with liberals here and there. Shows he's actually THINKING not following political lines. when someone can predict the outcome as 5-4 all the time, that just shows it IS broken, that judges are not thinking openly but following political lines. I can't believe any group of 9 people will consistenly side the same way every time if they are thinking openly and clearly.
