Let's see, at last check the republicans still held the majority in the senate. And have chosen to follow the advice of VP Biden and the practice over the years. Obama = Obama: ‘I’ve made my decision’ on Supreme Court nominee by AP16 Mar 2016283 WASHINGTON (AP) — President Barack Obama says he’ll announce his Supreme Court nominee in a Rose Garden ceremony on Wednesday morning. He’s not naming the pick before the 11 a.m. announcement, but the subject line of an email to supporters says: “I’ve made my decision.” There’s a vacancy on the nine-member court due to the death of Justice Antonin Scalia. Sources have told The Associated Press that Obama has narrowed the list to three appeals court judges: Merrick Garland, the chief judge of the appeals courts in Washington, D.C.; Sri Srinivasan, a judge on that court; and Paul Watford of the appeals courts based in San Francisco. Republicans who run the Senate have said they won’t consider an Obama nominee in an election year and want the next president to make that choice. |

Obama is doing his job. Pity the GOP is refusing to do theirs. |

That Darn Obama - Imagine, using that Rag, the US Constitution, as an excuse to do his duty... Does he have no shame at all? |

No they're not. They're supposed to supply "advice and consent". It's pretty darn hard to do either well if you won't even consider the appointee. That's a complete Dereliction of Duty, an Impeachable Offence.

That is part of the "advise" they gave Obama. They advised him to not send a nomination. Think before you spout more partisan talking points. |

Right after you, Berton. Naww never mind. It's quite apparent that you are only interested in "winning" discussions. You have no interest in the Truth on any subject, even when it comes to your own Constitution. Worse, you're not even embarrassed about it. It's disgusting. Time to put you on Ignore again. |

Your lack of knowledge of how our government works and what that quote from the Constitution means shows how uninformed you are. |

Obi knew his nomination would go nowhere, he is just playing politics. The Dems would do the same if the situation were reversed and everyone knows it. |
