STOLEN SCOTUS SEAT

Does Congress really think that the people they serve have a short attention span or an attention deficit disorder?

Do they think we are stupid?

Don’t they know that there is written and visual evidence of what they say and do?

Perfect example depicted!

Mitch, I saw you, I heard you.

Double standards, right?

Not so fast!!

~The Supreme Court stands at a crossroads~

As the court prepares to hear its first cases of the 2016-2017 term next week, Senate Republicans’ unprecedented blockade of Chief Judge Merrick Garland’s nomination has resulted in a state of dysfunction at our nation’s highest court.

This upcoming term demonstrates both the incredible importance of the Court and how it has been dangerously hobbled by the lack of a ninth justice.

Democratic senator accused the GOP of “theft” for blocking President Barack Obama’s nominee for the U.S. Supreme Court so it can be filled by the Drumpf administration.

“We really have to pay attention to the Supreme Court seat.

The seat that is sitting empty is being stolen,” Sen. Jeff Merkley told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes on Thursday night, January 27.

“It’s being stolen from the Obama administration and the construct of our Constitution. And it’s being delivered to an administration that has no right to fill it.”

President Barack Obama stood in the White House Rose Garden back in March to announce his nominee, Merrick Garland, for the Supreme Court seat emptied by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia.

But Republicans who control the Senate have refused to grant Garland a hearing, saying it should be up to Obama’s successor to pick a replacement for Scalia, who died in February 2016.

LAST WEEK TONIGHT

St. Valentine’s Day, the day of love and friendship was only a day ago.

The Pope’s USA visit was a while ago.

Where has all the “LOVE” gone?

While we all respect and offer condolences to the Scalia Family, some are making this a circus by claiming incredible erroneous facts and bending the laws of this country to their benefit.

America, this is what you have. It this what you want to keep?

Read on.

I takes a set of British eyes and a reasonable mind to see what some don’t see or, rather, don’t want to see.

Do buckle up …. what’s coming isn’t pretty.

MARLOW STERN

John Oliver Slams Republicans for Attempting to Block Obama’s SCOTUS Choice

In his return to HBO’s ‘Last Week Tonight,’ the Brit took aim at Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and the Republican leadership for advocating against the president’s constitutional right.

In an unprecedented move, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell released the following statement just one hour after the sudden passing of divisive Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia:

“The American people should have a voice in the selection of their next Supreme Court Justice. Therefore, this vacancy should not be filled until we have a new president.”

While there have been Senate objections to SCOTUS appointees in the past under similar circumstances, launching an instant, preemptive rejection of any candidate the president chooses is a first.

He then threw to a clip of Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump endorsing Sen. McConnell’s historic stand during last night’s South Carolina debate, saying, “I think it’s up to Mitch McConnell and everybody else to stop it. It’s called delay, delay, delay.”

“Well, that does not bode well because Mitch McConnell is actually pretty good at delaying things for people – whether it’s legislation, court appointments, or orgasms,” joked Oliver. “Believe me, if you ever need to ‘delay, delay, delay’ [an orgasm], just picture [McConnell’s] face and I guarantee you nothing will happen possibly for the rest of your life.”

He then threw to a 2008 clip of Sen. McConnell addressing the Senate

“Our Democratic colleagues continually talk about the so-called Thurmond Rule, under which the Senate supposedly stops confirming judges in a presidential election year,” said McConnell.

“This seeming obsession with this rule that doesn’t exist is just an excuse for our colleagues to run out the clock on qualified nominees who are waiting to fill badly-needed vacancies.”

Oops. Sen. McConnell also stated in 2005 that he supported a sitting president’s absolute right to nominate judges, although that – again – was when a Republican sat in the White House.

“Yes, it seems the ‘Thurmond Rule’ is a bit like God: when things are going your way, you don’t bring it up a lot, but as soon as you’re in trouble it is all that you talk about,” quipped Oliver.

NO PLACE FOR THEM

This Thanksgiving, No Place for Refugees at the American Table
Posted on Nov 18, 2015
By Amy Goodman and Denis Moynihan

In the wake of the horrific attacks in Paris on Nov. 13, there has been a crushing backlash against refugees from the wars in Syria, Iraq and Afghanistan. As Americans prepare for one of the most popular national holidays, Thanksgiving, which commemorates the support and nourishment provided by the indigenous people to English refugees seeking a better life free from religious persecution, a wave of xenophobia is sweeping the country.

In the U.S. Congress, no less than six separate bills have been put forward to block any federal funding to resettle refugees from Syria or Iraq and to empower states to deny entry into their “territory.” 

Imagine if all of a sudden we had 50 “statelets” creating their own border checkpoints, stopping all travelers, looking for anyone suspicious, i.e., any and all Syrians.

So far, 31 state governors have essentially demanded this.

Republican Kansas Gov. Sam Brownback issued an executive order forbidding any agency of state government from cooperating in any way with Syrian refugee support efforts. House Speaker Paul Ryan and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell have called for a pause in the Syrian refugee program, with the support of Democratic Sen. Chuck Schumer.

(all so called Chrstians)

It has been almost 400 years since that first, fateful Thanksgiving feast in Massachusetts.

Xenophobic policies like those threatening to shut out refugees from these wars, if allowed to stand, should serve as a shameful centerpiece at every Thanksgiving table this year.

#47Traitors …. Something needs to be done!!

~~March 12, 2015~~ 

unprecedented breach of foreign policy protocol both in its form and its boldness

The news about this “letter” has been circulating around cyberspace. I believe that the majority of Americans, whatever their ideologies are, would agree that this was done with the intent to sabotage any deals that the current administration is negotiating. 

There are many reasons to consider.

However, never before had such an action been recorded in the history of the Congress of the United States of America. I strongly believe that this sets a precedent for any future sitting president of this country. 

They are there because they were elected (so far). They aren’t there to enrich themselves, to lead this country astray or to play outside of the rules. This is a total lack of respect coming from the “c” of the government. They are not working for the people, they are working for themselves. 

~IMHO~

Over 150,000 Americans have signed it in the last 24 hours.

If you feel so inclined, take a look at the link below and sign if you are in agreement.

Something to think about …. Congressional NASCAR jackets!!

~~January 13, 2015~~

If Politicians Wore Their Sponsors Like NASCAR Drivers

“Shouldn’t every politician wear logos on their jacket so we know who their sponsors are?

My name is Gil Fulbright, honest politician, and I’m only in this thing for the money. The 2014 elections will be the most expensive midterms in American history, and I want a piece of that action.

I’m running for Kentucky Senate against Mitch McConnell and Alison Lundergan Grimes to bring a little honesty to the most expensive Senate race in the history of the United States (and of course, build hype for a potential run in 2016 — I could totally score a book deal or a talk show if I play my cards right).”
