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.

The democrats are not fighting for you any more than the republicans are fighting for me. They are telling us the things they think we want to hear to get our votes. They dont give a damn about you, me or anyone but themselves.
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.
