And the DonkeyRats approach critical mass.
(Dogshit and Elkindoofus, that means they are about to explode).
All brought to you courtesy of "Dingy" Harry Reid.

Gorsuch will be on the bench by tomorrow night. Ruth "Buzzy" Ginsburg can keel over any moment with Kennedy and Breyer not far behind. Then it won't matter what those libtard women, Sotomayor or Kagan say or how they vote. We have the court locked in for generations.

THAT is why it was important to elect Trump.

Now go fuck yourselves libtards.
YOU called the tune, now dance to it.

Ginsburg was put on the Court not just by Dems, but also by Repubs.

She was so wacky even long ago that she wanted to abolish Mother's Day, but Repubs conformed to Senate tradition and gave her and up/down vote.

Plenty of Repubs said I dislike her views but she is qualified so I'll vote for her.

Those days of comity are now ancient history.

It appears I was too pessimistic.
Gorsuch has been confirmed.

Now let the rest of the liberal dominos fall.
It will only get easier and better from here out.

Hopefully Trump will appoint young, proven conservative justices so we will have time to rescue this country from the socialist left.

Exactly, the Democrats and voters have given Trump a bridge to make his agenda much easier from this point on.

Harry put a fracture in the Senate. Mitch tore is asunder.

The problem is that Dems brought it on themselves, by Borking not just Bork but Clarence Thomas.

I wish McConnelll had not done it, but under the circumstances what was the alternative?

The Senate as a deliberative body, that's ancient history.

"They started it, daddy!"

So now we not only have a fake president, we also have a fake SCOTUS associate justice.

Well, these things are to be expected when you put the GOP in charge of everything.

Look at Sotomayor.

There were literally tens of thousands of better choices, but she was selected on the basis of gender and ethnicity.

She knew that, and even stated that her skin tone and gender could make her make better decisions.

That was in her standard speech, it was sexist and racist, and Democrats thought it was just dandy.

Repubs even cooperated -- again, comity -- and allowed her to move ahead.

But the Dems?

Oh no, no civilized behavior from them.

How many votes did Sotomayor receive to be confirmed?

Should be easy to find out.

That merely proves my point.

Despite being so radical she wanted to abolish Mother's Day, Ginsburg was overwhelmingly voted in.

Repubs are guilty of having taken the process seriously, but Dems with Bork and Thomas just went nuts.

Grog, not bring a citizen and having no vote need not concern himself with our Supreme Court.

I don't know how the judicial system works in Canuckfuckedupistan (and lIke all things in that largely irrelevant vast frozen wasteland, it doesn't matter), but no doubt it involves long black robes, powdered wigs and a framed portrait of a large, unhappy, frumpy old woman wearing a crown.
