What an attention whore. He needs a piping hot cup of Earl Gray to sip on this evening as he stares into the fireplace and thinks about his decision.

Rand Paul is so jealous right now

you would think they would give Joni Ernst some leadership role so she can stand up there with them.   Whether you agreed with him or not, Orrin Hatch used to be sharp.  I seriously don't know if he knows his name these days.   Unfortunately we all get to the point that we're not allowed to make important decisions for ourselves because of lost mental capabilities.   It's not good that he's making decisions for all of us.

I guess he's too busy with Russia

You gotta love the WH and the Senators playing good cop, bad cop. Each side saying that the other was the one driving the scope of the FBI investigation.

So not only will Kavanuagh get confirmed but the republican voter base has a 12 point increase in a voter enthusiasm poll conducted by NPR/amherst. Dems have played this horribly. 

Link?

Rand Paul’s absence in this fiasco is curious though.  He never misses these opportunities at quality “both siderism” media attention.

I guess he’s calculated he doesn’t want any appearance of going against dear Cheeto.

They keep talking about 7 background checks. BK's freshman roommate from Yale has been on CNN a couple of times, and he says that the FBI has never talked to him during any of these bg checks. Wonder why they never heard of BK's questionable behavior.

I know that the old white guys that make up the gop don't want to hear this, but a conservative woman on the court would be positive. 

If everyone is equally qualified (as the people who put the list together believe), choose the one that might have had a different life experience than everyone else on the court.

You don't look for what you don't know to look for.

This is the fallacy of the argument of "X background checks."

If Trump gets to replace Ginsburg, I would be shocked if it wasn't Barrett.

I think most would actually agree.

I've had a couple of coronitas and tequilla shots at the Dallas Cowboy. That place is straight out of a Tarantino movie. Dirt floors and mexican trannys on a stripper pole.

Disappointed that he doesn't call for dogs and firehoses?

My favorite part of today was Grassley complaining about media bias and how reporters only wanted to interview anti-Kavanaugh protesters.

Because the media has only interviewed die hard Hillary supporters during the 2016 election and afterwards.  

Wait, no they didn’t because those obviously don’t exist.  I can’t go through two media cycles without hearing from everyday Trump voters.

Tahoe is disappointed they didn’t give that protestor the Little Rock 9 treatment.

Barrett will be next nominated if a seat opens up while Trump is still in office.

We're talking about Kavanaugh.  It's a time-honored test to see if he's telling the truth.  You're a little slow.

Demonstrably false.  Try educating yourself.

If i'm forced to choose between an old straight white leftist justice and a young black lesbian conservative justice, give me the former any day of the week.

He has impeccable credentials.   Of course he is qualified.

Let me walk you through this:

Let's say a Supreme Court nominee had impeccable credentials.  Outstanding reputation on the 9th Circuit, whatever.  Thoughtful, articulate, well-reasoned opinion, the whole 9 yards.

And then let's say that nominee had been convicted of murder.

Would he be qualified for a seat on the SCOTUS bench?
