[QUOTE="Frank Underwood, post: 238779, member: 35"] McConnel is such a ghoul. He's also refusing to live by the precedent he set in 2016 when he refused to take up a vote on a Supreme Court nominee during an election year. Lindsey Graham said at the time “I want you to use my words against me. If there’s a Republican president in 2016 and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say Lindsey Graham said let’s let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination." I have a feeling he'll soon be singing a different tune as well. Installed? That sounds like a Freudian slip from the late Justice Ginsburg. The correct term is elected, although Dems don't care about fair elections anymore than Republicans. Ginsburg was on the right side of many issues, but she also had some questionable views. Her friendship with a far right ghoul like Justice Scalia is particularly questionable. She also referred to Colin Kaepernick 's choice to kneel rather than stand during the National Anthem as "dumb, disrespectful, and arrogant." She added that she "strongly takes issue with the point of view that they are expressing when they do that." That's odd, considering the "point of view" they're expressing is that police brutality is wrong. Kaepernick said at the time that it was "disappointing to hear a Supreme Court justice call a protest against injustices and oppression 'stupid, dumb.' " This isn't meant to take away from all of the good Justice Ginsburg did, but it does show that she had a flawed side that's often ignored as a result of her saint-like portrayal. [/QUOTE]
