GOP pushes Barrett toward court as Democrats call it sham

Republicans powered Supreme Court nominee Amy Coney Barrett closer to confirmation Thursday,

The Republican Party has long been the party serving the needs of the country's wealthiest. Barrett is their ideal justice.

She'll help ensure the needs of the wealthiest, especially those running big corporations are met.

Look for her to support further undermining of the rights of individuals while protecting and strengthening those of corporations.

Look for further reductions in environmental, worker and consumer protections.

She's Trump and the 'elites' ideal justice, especially those in the Federalist Society and other far right groups pushing for a return to the 1950s, a person with little if any regard for the general population.

Barrett will be confirmed and the conservative justices will begin their assault on the separation of church and state.

God willing...

The Saudis? Not so much...

Judeo-Christian values made the west the most successful, free, and powerful nations the earth has ever seen.

No, getting away from said values over the past 50 years has created the most successful, free, and powerful nations the earth has ever seen.

ACB will be instrumental in curing the patient.

Not surprising the global alt right are once again pushing a Russian system of national socialism backed by Russian Orthodox as the state religion as their preferred model of governance. 'They leave the 'west' behind' in their quest to be 'back in the USSR'.

ACB

Let’s stop calling her ACB. Stop appropriating the legacy of RBG, a true champion of justice for all, especially for those less privileged in social status.

Barrett is a champion for the Republican Party and its loudest, richest backers.

Beyond gender and motherhood, the two have nothing in common.

Wrong. A cancer is growing in the west. The likes of Trump, right-wing militias, and qanon are the symptoms.

Sen John Cornyn, R-Texas, said he understands Democrats' “disappointment." He said, "Their loss is the American people's gain.”

Cornyn is forgetting that the majority of the American people are not Republican, evangelical Christian, anti-abortion, anti-gun control, or billionaires. And the majority of Americans believe that the SC nomination should happen after the election.

And some good ole timey prayin’

I thought you were against kneeling.

What if she became a liberal,would not be the first time

Bob,Jesus never met a White man, if he did, he would not associate with him, Jesus only associated with Jews

The Republican Party has long been the party serving the needs of the country's wealthiest. Barrett is their ideal justice. 

Not as wealthy as the Democrats or the richest elites that vote Democrat especially in the tech industry.

She'll help ensure the needs of the wealthiest, especially those running big corporations are met. 

No, she’s a constitutionalist snd she’ll interpret the law as written and that’s what a SC should do, not legislate from the bench.

Look for her to support further undermining of the rights of individuals while protecting and strengthening those of corporations. 

Look at the giant corporations and donors trying to thwart her nomination.

She's Trump and the 'elites' ideal justice, especially those in the Federalist Society and other far right groups pushing for a return to the 1950s, a person with little if any regard for the general population.

If the Dems controlled the WH and Senate they and all the high tech corporations as well as Hollywood and Soros would without a doubt put a liberal activist Justice on the bench. Period.

Let’s stop calling her ACB. 

I beg to differ:

AOC is used both by her supporters and by her detractors. ACB, like ABC, is a kind of synecdoche and we can understand it as a brand, whether good or bad. RBG is used by her admirers as a term of endearment and respect, but not her traducers.

In ACB I see little to admire, especially as she accepted this judicial appointment from a most unsavory character, a life-long scofflaw of the lowest morals and, as a fellow-traveler, fully on board with the Republican rush to judgment, she has shown a readiness to serve as a "handmaid" to a right-wing agenda on the USSC. This sorry story is surely to be continued...

The Haters will think that, understandable.

Yeah, if the roles were reversed and a conservative would say the same thing liberals would say, tough.

Today's Republicans are scammers and schemers,

As well as the Democrat party.

and would destroy our democracy

The big difference is and one of the few redeeming qualities the GOP has is the rule of law, the constitution and democracy the Dems could care less. I dislike both parties, but when it comes to stability of the nation, I vote red.

She's very intelligent and knows the law. Quit griping.

Farmboy, you are right. The GOP beclowned itself in how it dealt with the Garland nomination. They should have just been honest and said, "we can block it because we have the power, so his nomination is toast".

At the same time, the Democrats were demanding that Garland get a hearing because the it was still Obama's term and the election hadn't happened.

Now the positions are, ironically, reversed. So we just have to go with the law. The GOP can do it because they own the Senate and White House. It's really that simple. It's been done often in the past. By contrast, when the Senate and White House are different parties, nominees rarely (if ever) go through.
