You can always count on the Dems to keep it classy.

Meanwhile over at the Democrat caucus:

The pigs and farmers return to their amiable card game, and the other animals creep away from the window. Soon the sounds of a quarrel draw them back to listen. Napoleon and Pilkington have played the ace of spades simultaneously, and each accuses the other of cheating.

Funny! But sadly, apropos. I'm willing to bet a lot of people haven't read Animal Farm, or if they did so... failed to comprehend the allegory.

This is EXACTLY why many dems/libs had ZERO credibility:


"and the GOP came up with a corrupt lame arse excuse for not holding confirmation hearings for his SCOTUS pick..."


HARRY REID AND CHUCKY SHUMER CAME UP WITH IT FIRST and threatened W. Bush that THEY WOULD DO IT.

There is little greater joy then when the repubs turn around and DO EXACTLY what the dems THREATENED and PROMISED to do, and watch the libs go bonkers over it!

The answer is drearily obvious. They are just trying to stall, obstruct and obfuscate these hearings, for purely partisan political purposes.

"A better question is, why are they demanding more documents when they have already publicly announced they are going to vote against Kavanaugh?"


Th libs on here WON'T TOUCH this!

Also, Thom Tillis (R-NC), Senate Judiciary Committee ripped the covers off the Democratic Congress plan via NBC story to obstruct before they came up with this last minute "document-dump".

Shidiot Democrats.

Dick Durbin confirmed their little Chucklebuckets scheme.
I already posted the tweet by the NBC reporter that said Chuck Schumer worked out a plan to disrupt the Hearing today - Durbin later confirmed that. This guy that actually was close enough to get to Judge Kavanaugh to stage the "handshake" is concerning. WHO got him into the hearing and WHO got him so close to the front ..... clearly staged. The fool Tweeted about it BEFORE the hearing.



And then there is the video of a payoff to protestors - none of this is good.

Thankfully the rules were changed to eliminate the filibuster, otherwise no nominee from any republican president, would ever be confirmed. That BS was stopped dead in its tracks.

Imagine a court that didn't do this?
It would be revolutionary.

How would the Left advance their agenda?
Even with the help of the MSM's 7x24 propaganda outlets they were never able to win the gay marriage argument.

A lot of things they want they are only able to get through the courts.

Look at all these Federal judges undermining Trump at every step.
With a complicit, to tightly divided Supreme Court many of these usurpations are left standing.

A few more real conservatives on the court and that entire lever of power is no longer in Leftist control.

That's making them crazy.
Decisions like Citizens United and your big concern is people being allowed to marry someone they love, why do you even car about the latter and how does it impact you. Citizens United affects you everyday but that's your worry.
