You seem to forget the voters spoke a bit more recently: 54 republican senators. 246 house of representatives. 31 Republican governors. More than 9000 local and state politician pickups for the republicans. Pretty much their high water mark since 1929.

So it seems you have a bit of a selective memory.

Here's hoping the senate does what we sent them to congress to do. Tell obama to shove his nomine up his ass.

"Yet another"?

President Obama's first two SCOTUS appointees were women. (Still are, for that matter.) Justice Sotomayor is also the first Hispanic on the Supreme Court.

Sanders is an old white guy, O'Malley was an old white guy, Clinton is an old white woman... Yes another old white guy.

Lucy, you wouldn't know a fact if it came up and kicked you in the British Arse of yours.

Here's the inconvenient fact that I wish the republicans would pick up on:

There are literally a thousand jurists the senate would vote to confirm. The republicans could publish a list and tell obama - since the business of the supreme court is so important to you - you pick any one of these x number of jursts - and we'll vote to confirm him.

And then watch that whole kerfluffle blowback in the dims face. The sad fact is the republicans don't know how to play the game.

BTW if the 'American people have spoken' having elected a majority of 54 repub senators, that means they have told them specifically not to vote any judge in and a majority of the people 55% want the senate to give him a vote.

And 80% of all statistics - like yours here, is made up on the spot. The numbers are somewhere around 43% wait, 51% nominate. But only 27% think a candidate will or should be confirmed.

38% view the court as too liberal. 23% too conservative.

51% believe obama has been less faithful to the constitution than most. Rasmussen Feb 17 poll.

OK, what it did say is that fifty-five (55) percent of registered voters are sour on the GOP's move to block hearings to consider the nominee, regardless of the person Obama ultimately announces as his choice for the job. Which to me is saying 55% want a vote

Only about one in three - 28 percent - approve of the GOP's strategy.

But to be objective, 48-43 want a vote.

HERE

The NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll was conducted March 3-6. Funny how you know what 'I am trying to say' in other posts, when I have 'said' no such thing. And you post what I am saying about what you've said on other OP's, when I have said no such thing.

Now you claim I just made this all up.

I never claimed you made it up. I said your percentages were wrong. The 48-43 number is correct.
