I was prepared to sit this next election out but now that is my mission.
And I am not fond of having an American Taliban on the supreme Court. We will cancel out each others vote - nice!

This has just come out: Scalia was found with a pillow over his head.

Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's.

Oh, and food stamps to move cheap subsidized food commodities in the supermarkets and federally supported crop prices and mandates to use corn based alcohol for fuel. Also, thousands of private airports maintained for only private planes (do you have one?) adding billions of dollars to every ticket sold on common carrier airlines that use only 146 airports in the US. Let me see, what else am I forgetting? About 67 bucks a week to an unwed, uneducated mother who couldn't find an abortion at the right time so that she and her kids can half-starve and grow up to do it all over again. THAT'S what's breaking us.
Pretty much what I was going to say.. The far right likes to cast stones but their big house is made out of lots and lots of glass.

The death of Scalia does not impact my vote, nor I suspect very many other independents. I would imagine if Trump gets the nod, a lot of independents will groan but go with it. Cruz? They'll stay at home or vote Dem...

However I'm pretty sure if the republicans stall on nominees to the bench it will only worsen an already abysmal approval rating to new lows. The republicans will NOT be on the favorable side if that occurs.

You do realize Sanders is actually PRO-second amendment right? EPIC FAIL!
