Totally Agree!

True!  What's the point of the hearings?  So the commies can make a mockery out of them like they did last time?!

Good story. I tell my friends and coworkers all the time. We may not agree on politics or religion. But we are still brothers and can always find common ground. For instance, Aggies... you know what I mean.

True, sometimes.  But how does one find common ground an Antifa/Communist? There was no common ground between a conservative/Constitutionalist and, say, obama?  Or AOC?  Or bernie sanders?  These are now the mainstream of the democratic party!

Good question. I haven't had any interaction with them. So I'm not sure what exactly we would agree on. But I'd love to sit down and have a drink with one. Open invitation, any takers? Its gonna be hard with the bars all still closed.

That kind of thought is nearly nonexistent now.  Unfortunately.

Nice feel good story but she was a political activist hack on the Supreme Court. I remember when she spoke out against Trump which a Supreme Court Justice should never do. That’s why you never see a SCOTUS Justice clap when a State of the Unions is being given regardless who’s president. They are always suppose to remain visibly and vocally neutral when in public. Unfortunately RGB showed her true colors a couple of years ago about Trump. May she RIP. Time to fill the seat like we voted for him to do. Trump2020🇺🇸

It is not possible for me to have common ground with an individual who believes in killing an innocent baby.

i can be civil and that’s about it.

She is a SCOTUS hall of famer, just as her best friend Scalia was.  They both understood that.  Most people who aren’t legally trained can’t see the beauty in both of their careers, irrespective of their ideology.  Just as Thurgood Marshall was a HoF’er, while his token replacement Clarence Thomas is maybe the WOAT (the ultimate “hack” jurist).  Greatness recognizes greatness.

Realville, I know you are not able to see this, but McConnell denied a Supreme Court justice hearing for Obama’s nomination because he said it was an election year and the Senate should wait for the election results so the people could decide.  So, now?  There is no way in hell he will wait.  Even though he should, you do not care.

Uhhh.... The opposition party is required to hold a vote? I missed that part of the constitution…

There have been eight or less members of the court before and it is not a crisis. It’s just not a good way to do business. If there is a tie vote then the lower court decision stands because it was not overturned.

It is funny that some of the Democrats will talk about hypocrisy in this case. Four years ago RBG basically said that it was the right thing to do to nominate and go to the Senate. When it was her seat on the line, her supposed last statement was to not go by her statement from 4 years ago.

I just wonder who ACB will have come forward and claim that she sexually molested them.

On a (much) more serious note, if they can get another true conservative to the Supreme Court, it will shake up the rulings for a potentially the next 10 years and up to two decades, depending on the next election.

And geez..... Back to back legal threads.

Why leave it up to the lower courts? We elected Trump to fill the seat when it became vacant....its vacant..Fill it!

About 99.99% (or more) of cases are left to the lower courts.  If you think that the Supreme Court come here over a million cases a year, you are mistaken.

The seat will be filled your post irrelevant.

Actually most of it will not be irrelevant because 99.9% of cases are still handle by the lower courts.

AND.... with RBG gone it is a 5-3 split   

But thanks for playing…

Actually if no candidate receives a majority of the electoral votes the House decides whose president. You can refer to the 12th Amendment. I am sure you just forgot about that particular issue.  You must be really confident in Roberts but I am not. Carry on....
