Even though the Democrats has a majority in the US Senate they didn't have a 3/4 majority to over ride any filibusters that blocked Obama an the Dems from making any new laws. The exception was the Affordable Health Care Act. You know this George yet you act like they had total control of the Senate and you know that they didn't. Lying by omissions? are we now?

Everyone knows that the Republican's were out to Get Obama and block anything and everything that he tired to do to help the people. Obstructionist would be a perfect name for the GOP.

Obama is still the President for another 10 full months and it's his duty to appoint a new supreme court justice Immediately. And it's the Duty of the US Senate to confirm the appointments in a timely manner with an up or down vote. To simply say that they won't even consider anyone that Obama nominates is simply playing Political Hard Ball in the biggest way. I hope this move costs the GOP the White House, Senate and the House in the upcoming election. Maybe the die hard republicans don't care if McConnell tries to destroy the Court and the Constitution but the independents will see this as being GREEDY and hopefully McConnell and the GOP will pay a huge price in this upcoming election.

There is a reason why GOD chose to take Antonin now before the election instead of waiting to take him after the election.

Any fool that follows American Politics could predict that the GOP controlled US Senate would fight Obama tooth and nail over anything he does.

God helps us if we let someone like Donald Trump put the next US Supreme Court Justice on the court.

What is AMAZING to me is that Democrats didn't deal with immigration when they had all 3 branches.

Talk about FOOLS.
