Do you remember how they passed ACA into law, did you complain about that? It was dirty pool and the left defended it. Politics isnt a gentleman's game its a bare knuckle fight. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

To put an exclamation point on this conversation about hypocrisy. This season of BB usa we have 3 blacks on the show. 2 girls and 1 guy. The girls were approach about voting out the guy and they said they would not vote out someone who is black. I personally don't have a problem with that. They can vote on who they want for whatever reason they want but imagine the reaction if someone said they would not vote out a white person. There is no shortage of hypocrisy on either side. The selective outrage based on partisanship does not move me. Both sides are guilty of it and neither side has any room to complain about it when they get a taste of it back.

You do realise the first 2 things they'll do will be to abolish abortion at the federal level (rendering local level irrelevant), and cancel obamacare, kicking millions off healthcare and removing pre-condition protections, in the middle of a pandemic? |

As far as obamacare goes, i don't think it should of ever been passed in the first place. I think it makes matters even worse than they were before. It is the wrong approach to lowering costs if thats the goal. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

Hypothetical hypocrisy does not counter very real hypocrisy. You can bleat on about democrats forever, but it doesn't change the fact you are defending ACTUAL hypocrisy just because it comes from the side you favour. Yes, how dare the Democrats pass a law that granted affordable healthcare to those who wouldn't have it before. Such hypocrites. Oh wait, creating a law that benefits the country is way different to forcing through the appointment of a judge that defies precedent that the Republicans enforced during the last election year. Honestly, your comparison just doesn't work. Apples and oranges. It's quite sad how people will defend those who stand upon their necks. |

You claim i am defending the republicans because I favor them. I generally do view them as the lesser of two evils but that has nothing to do with I am defending them. I am defending them because they are not breaking any rules. I may or may not like the judge they appoint, i dont like the last 2, but they have the power and the right to nominate whoever they want. If democrats think its unfair they should of made a rule in congress that prevents it. Don't forget it was harry reid who ended the filibuster rule for judges when he was the democrats leader of the senate. If that rule were in place the democrats could of blocked not just this next nomination but the 2 previous ones as well. Democrats didn't like having their judicial nominations blocked. They didn't want to negotiate with the other side so they changed it to a simple majority vote and now they are reaping what they sowed. Rest assured republicans are gonna find themselves in the wrong side of this rule someday too. I will be equally unsympathetic to them too. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

If that does happen, I can see Trump getting 2 more appointees. Breyer is getting up their in years and thomas has expressed a desire to retired in the past. The scotus could end up with 5 Trump appointees on it. Sent from my SM-G965U using Tapatalk |

There's no logic in saying that the Republicans are the lesser of two evils when you have Mitch McConnell voting down measures to prevent outside influence (IE Russia) with the election, choosing to vote down Covid relief in favour of making more judge appointments etc, how can you say Republicans are the lesser of two evils when Trump has committed endless crimes whilst in office and had all but one of the republicans clear him for it? Answer me this, how can you say that the republicans are the lesser of two evils when it's been the republicans politicising and underplaying the pandemic to the tune of over 200,000 deaths? How about the human rights abuses going on at the border? Obama introduced a law that gave the authorities the power to seperate immigrant children at the border from their guardians if they suspected abuse and/or trafficking. This power was not used much at all during Obama's administration, yet the Trump administration used it as justification for their cruelty by splitting up thousands of families and leaving children to die in cells they shouldn't have been in. The republicans have basically allowed concentration camps to pop up along the border yet they are the lesser of two evils, in your eyes?! I advise you spend less time watching Fox News. |
Ginsburg Supreme Court: Republicans secure vote for replacement

Each side does what they have the political power to achieve. It's hardly surprising that the GoP want a new judge in their image when they have the power to see it through, the dems would do exactly the same in that position

Trump has now appointed
Was Live on the 2 News Channels Amy Barrett as the New Supreme Court She is a Strict Catholic. https://news.sky.com/story/trump-nom...court-12082954 https://e3.365dm.com/20/09/768x432/a...ervice-worker& |
very strategic this from Trump, going for a woman :idc:
also he called her a very intellectual lady 4 times (i counted) very predictable this aiming for women voters |
but congrats on winning another term Trump (ugh you bought yourself another win)
|
Amy Barrett, who belongs to a religion (Read: cult) that believes women should be subservient to men and may, or may not, have inspired the Handmaid's Tale. She is also, like almost every other republican in existence, a rampaging hypocrite as she said in 2016 that a Supreme Court judge should not be appointed until after the election.
|
also that moment where Trump got boo'd at Ruth's memorial service
i don't think any previous u.s president had been boo'd that much |
Quote:
|
Pretty sure Jie Biden is also a catholic, not sure why that has been dragged up in Amy’ case, it’s so close to the election this appointment should have been delayed
|
She has to go through an approval process the same as Kavanaugh did. The dems need to be very careful how they approach this so that they don't alienate voters ... so things like religion, race, immigration, abortion are all going to be sticky topics

2 republican senators test positive for covid-19, potentially jeopardizing Barrett's confirmation vote
