The epitome of bad taste. ::: getting brain bleach :::
Every Democrat election campaign this year “Stop gridlock and obstruction in DC…”
Here is tonight’s bonus two drink statement for the debates. I’m willing to bet a dozen virtual doughnuts that Cruz says something to that effect. He’s tried to toss a wrench into every confirmation so far.
“Whoever President Obama nominates for the court, I will block”

I’m not sure she’d like to live in the White House. A bit of a down scale house for her.
McConnell:
“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.”
Apparently being elected by a majority vote TWICE doesn’t qualify as the American People having a voice.

The American people do have a voice Mitch and they decided twice with over 50% of the vote that this president should be able to choose who he wants for the Supreme Court. Go fuck yourself seriously.

A nobler grave than this:
Here lies Scalia, named Tony.
Stop, traveler, and piss.
I’m gonna stick with De mortuis nil nisi bonum, so I won’t speak of Scalia.
What I WILL say is that the GOP response has been nothing short of despicable.

Expect tonight’s Republican debate — 9 p.m. Eastern on CBS; we will have an open thread but not a liveblog — to be brimming with the most glurge-filled possible tributes to the late Associate Justice, unless Ben Carson is asked first, in which he’ll probably say he never followed Italian politics and refuses to answer a trick question.

Nice. Obama’s statement is running late…..which means that the GOP candidates won’t be able to hear it, before going on air for the debate, and so will be asked to respond to it, without actually having heard it.
That is how you set people up to look dumb(er).

It’s easy enough to understand. For GOPers, “I’ve got mine, fuck you” permeates every fiber of their beings.
However, many GOPers don’t actually have anything, so perhaps the real party motto is simply “Fuck you.”
