the Scalia situation.

I love it when your bogus "objective" mask slips off and the real neocon/teabagger rhetoric comes spewing out. I mean, McConnell states for all the world to hear that his party's major goal was to make Obama a one term President....and YOU BLAME OBAMA FOR REPUBLICAN OBSTRUCTIONISM! :palm: GMAFB, will ya please?

For the record....two wrongs don't make a right. Biden was NOT the Minority or Majority leader or whip of the Dems throughout his career....he's more than entitled to his opinion, which doesn't make him automatically right.

To date, what Presidents want to do and what they are legally entitled to do are two different things. Bottom line: there has NOT been a declaration by DEM leadership in the last 60 years to preemptively reject any nomination of the GOP for senator under any circumstances. Period. If you can find otherwise, then please produce it.

McConnell is also entitled to his opinion.....where he stands in the party is irrelevant....like Hillary says time and time again, there is no their there...but I understand its all you got, and all
you got remains NOTHING....Democrats just don't like to be treated just like they treated the Republicans.....the double standard is alive and well with pinheads. That includes you, Tonto.

"To date, what Presidents want to do and what they are legally entitled to do are two different things."???? No shit, .....
Is that supposed to be some profound revelation ?....Obama can do whatever the hell he wants to do....and so can the Congress.

Now say 'Amen' and stop whining like a petulant child....

A couple of thoughts on this. As always the GOP are idiots and will eventually display their weakness

If I were McCuntell I would not telegraph my intentions. I would say things like

"We welcome the President to submit a nominee"

And that is it

This will be yet another episode of republican failure theatre

For the record, you've proven you're the typical Liberal hypocrite. It's irrelevant about positions Biden held. His position on the matter when he said it is.

You've been provided with an example and you choose to ignore it. Don't ask if you don't want an answer you're unwilling to accept.

Nova, once again you prove to be the dumbest neocon/teabagger/fibbertarian on these boards. A prime example is this latest gem of yours, "....McConnell is also entitled to his opinion.....where he stands in the party is irrelevant :whoa: :palm:

McConnell is the Majority Leader of the Senate. Here's what that means: the majority and minority leaders serve as spokesmen for their parties' positions on the issues. The majority leader has also come to speak for the Senate as an institution. Working with the committee chairs and ranking members, the majority leader schedules business on the floor by calling bills from the calendar and keeps members of his party advised about the daily legislative program. In consultation with the minority leader, the majority leader fashions unanimous consent agreements by which the Senate limits the amount of time for debate and divides that time between the parties. When time limits cannot be agreed on, the majority leader might file for cloture to shut off debate. Occupying the front desks on the center aisle, the two leaders coordinate party strategy and try to keep their parties united on roll-call votes. http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Majority_Minority_Leaders.htm

McConnell made a DECLARATIVE STATEMENT pertaining to action and direction of his party. This has been documented in newspapers and magazines in the country.

Once again, Nova, you proudly display your ignorance on the historical facts of a subject, thinking your opinions, suppositions and conjecture will suffice instead. Once again, you make yourself out to be a fool.

You seem to be competing with Nova for top simpleton in the conservative peanut gallery. I didn't ignore anything, genius....I merely acknowledged that since Biden was NOT the Dem leader or whip, his opinion does not dictate policy or direction of the party.

Here stupid, learn how things work. http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/history/common/briefing/Majority_Minority_Leaders.htm

The closest you and your compadres came to having the Dems pull a similar obstructionist stunt like the GOP is doing now is during the Bork debacle...and even then the Dem leadership threatened a SLOW DOWN of the nomination process if the GOP kept stonewalling and blocking any and all bill proposals from the Dems. The Dem whip urged resistance and rejections....BUT....Bork was submitted and VETTED as a nominee....he received NEGATIVE VOTES from GOP & DEM senators based on his record of judicial bias in his rulings. THERE WAS NEVER A DECREE OF PREEMPTIVE REJECTION. I previously provided facts on this that you seem to want to ignore.

So stop repeating your LIES, CFM...the chronology of the posts will always be your undoing. But you'll continue in the same vain, as stupid is, as stupid does.
 
And here's the clincher, folks....the GOP goes the extra nine yards!


G.O.P. Senators Say Obama Supreme Court Pick Will Be Rejected

http://www.nytimes.com/2016/02/24/us/politics/supreme-court-nomination-obama.html?_r=0


So the GOP leadership AND senators are on the record for a preemptive rejection. I defy every and all "conservative" "republican" and anti-Obama person to display in the last 60 years where the Democratic party has done the EXACT same thing. I'll wait.
 
The primary functions of a majority leader usually relate to floor duties. The majority leader:

  • Is the lead speaker for the majority party during floor debates
  • Develops the calendar
  • Assists the president or speaker with program development, policy formation and policy decisions.


That was no Floor debate when McConnell voiced his opinion. Its ridiculous to claim that every time he says something he is speaking for the entire Republican Senate....

Would you also claim Harry Reid was speaking for the entire Democratic Senate when he accused Romney of not paying taxes for 10 years? And incidentally, Reid made

that claim from the Senate floor....total lie that it was....

You're just an arrogant ass that can't admit to being wrong about anything, but you're entitled to living in you very own world of make believe.....

WTF is the matter with you? In all these years, you have yet to LEARN THAT YOUR PERSONAL OPINIONS, SUPPOSITIONS AND CONJECTURE ARE NOT SUBSTITUTES NOR DO THEY OVERRIDE HISTORICAL FACT AND PRECEDENT, NOR DO THEY REPLACE CURRENT FACTS AS THEY OCCUR.

Once again for the cheap seats, ".... the majority and minority leaders serve as spokesmen for their parties' positions on the issues.

McConnell made his decree and it has been followed up with a signed pledge. To date NO DEMOCRAT leadership has put forth AND FOLLOWED THROUGH WITH a decree of preemptive REJECTION. http://www.justplainpolitics.com/showthread.php?64833-the-Scalia-situation&p=1555804#post1555804

Deal with it, or in your case, don't. It's a matter of history, a matter of fact.

At least you're not trying to claim that the liberals never attempted it and failed. :good4u:
