El Presidente will announce Justice #9 Tuesday night at 8 pm.

It's like he's scheduling the events to get the best TV ratings he can. Did anybody tell him that this isn't The Washington, DC, Celebrity Apprentice?

Leafs are playing. I'll catch the twitter reactions and the calamity here.

Hannity will be singing Love Justice No. 9.

Don't think they can. The filibuster is IINM whittled down to SCOTUS noms (for now) and budgetary measures.

I assume the GOP will just let er rip and completely end the cloture 60 requirement for everything. They might as well.

The good Senator from Nevada, Mr. Reid, would've been wise to not have gone all "nuclear option". Why? That sword has two sharp edges.

As if this crew wouldn't have done it. :rolleyes:

(R) has been short for Repugnant for a generation. All Harry did was get the first kick in. It was going to happen the next time these terrorists got their finger on the button, and I suspect even you in your lucid moments know that. :p

I don't think they will, otherwise they would have done it back in the 2000s, but they understood (at the time) the importance of it from the 1990s, so they didn't.

Just like Trump to turn simply naming a candidate for the court into a complete fucking circus. Since the President is a complete assclown a circus setting fits.

We've had prime time veto messages. Heck there's Monday and Thursday night football. It seems we're fine with prime time circuses.

I guarantee the AIC never heard of either candidate before a week ago.

I tried to turn on Wheel of Fortune, and while I got to watch a bunch of idiots clapping for no reason, I'm still disappointed.

You're projecting.

Who actually, honest and for true, did it? Harry Reid and the Ds.


In the end this will become mutually assured destruction as the other side will fire back when they can the next time.
