Every fucking thing for them is justified by Bork.

re: #89 Jay C

SRSLY: 32 years, and they still can’t let go of the fact that one of their Original Wingnut Idols got rejected for SCOTUS (after utterly-fucking-due process) because of public political agitation against his nomination - actually worse, public political agitation against his extremist ideology, and have spent all the intervening time picking at that sore, and obsessing on their butthurt-justifying mythologizing.

By my count, between Bork’s rejection by the Senate on 10/23/1987 and his demise on 12/19/2012 , it was 9,189 days: every single one of which the country should have been thankful that that inflexible crank wasn’t sitting on the nation’s High Court.

So Republican vindictiveness over legitimate concerns over Bork (to the point that the vote against him was legitimately bipartisan) lead to where we are now with Garland not even being allowed a hearing out of GOP spite.

And this is all Dems fault somehow. Right. pic.twitter.com/1nnW9o9F1I
