Senate Democrats Whine, Plead All Sunday Night Ahead of Barrett Confirmation Vote
Here’s a great laugh for your Monday!
After the Senate procedural vote on Judge Amy Coney Barrett on Sunday, the Senate Democrats stayed on the floor to whine, cry, and plead not to confirm her to the Supreme Court.
The final confirmation vote will take place Monday night.
Oh, the Democrats puked their usual talking points: Barrett will overturn Obamacare, strip everyone of their healthcare, and invade every woman’s doctor’s office to make sure she isn’t committing infanticide.
Is there anyone else who can hyperbole better than Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer?
We’re fighting for American lives and freedoms.
The right to affordable health care.
To make your own private medical decisions.
To join a union.
To vote without impediments.
To love.
We will not stop fighting.

Sen. Tom Carper (D-DE) sobbed, “The Affordable Care Act hangs in the balance with this nomination!”
Carper snapped that the nomination and confirmation is a picture of “hypocrisy” because the coronavirus death toll is at 220,000 and the election is only days away.
Carper also alluded that Trump’s presidency is invalid because he “lost the popular vote” and the House “impeached him.”
We’re running out of time to prevent the most catastrophic and irreversible consequences of climate change. And Senate Republicans are wasting precious time rushing to confirm a climate denier to the #SCOTUS.

You guys, I cannot even or odd with this crap.
Conspiracy nut Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) claimed Barrett told them exactly how she would rule because it was impossible to miss since she said it “in ALL CAPS.” Uh…what?
The Republican Party platform says that Republican presidents will appoint judges to reverse Obamacare.
Judge Barrett “telegraphed how she would rule” on the case to overturn the ACA.

Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-NY) said, “Americans are suffering!” The Senate should be “negotiating a real relief package!”
Blame Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi, lady.
Americans are suffering.
We are reaching a third coronavirus peak.Yet “the weeks we should have dedicated to negotiating a real relief package have instead been spent rushing through the confirmation of a Supreme Court Justice.”

Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said Republicans are stealing this SCOTUS seat!
“Senate Republicans have better things to do than pass a relief package…
Things like steal a Supreme Court seat.”

Oh, look! Sen. Angus King (I-ME) using the new definition of court-packing!
Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) speaking on the Senate floor tonight:
"I don't want to pack the court. I don't want to change the number. I don't want to have to do that, but if all of this rule-breaking is taking place, what does the majority expect? What do they expect?"

So confirming Amy will end “Love”, Schumer?
What a dip.
But you have to admit it was interesting, weird. and creepy haiku from Schumer.
Cram it, Democrats. The disingenuity/hypocrisy lives loudly within you.
The Democrats earned this with the Kavanaugh abomination
The Democrats have had their allies cynically manipulating their image for so long that now they’ve begun to make the mistake of believing it.
That never ends well.
Fauxcahontas projects onto her senate Republican colleagues exactly what she and her Democrat colleagues fear and that is that the Americam public will never go along with their socialist agenda.
DEMS better open their own whinery because they’ve got a lot more whines to come.
“Watch: ‘Shove Your New World Order Up Your *ss!’ — London Erupts in Protest Against Lockdown
Thousands of protesters descended on the British capital on Saturday to call for an end to coronavirus lockdowns and restrictions on businesses in the UK, which they described as a form of “tyranny”.
In a Breitbart London exclusive video, protesters were seen singing: “I would rather be a human than a slave”, “We are the 99 per cent”, and “You can shove your New World Order up your ass”….

I wonder how much hand wringing would they be doing if the shoe was on the other foot… I’m sure they would be talking the same exact way… well, nearly sure. OK, of course I know they would be saying it is the morally correct thing to do, and frankly, though I wouldn’t like a liberal justice coming on, I would agree with them.
Who knew elections had consequences.
These people are truly mentally ill.
What the hell is up with Delaware? They elect the dumbest people to the Senate.
Maybe they have a strong genetic strain of Bidens…
Do you remember the last scene of the witch in Wizard of Oz?
You mean the scen where house fell on her and only her feet and red shoes were sticking out. And Amy went over and put them on and Trump came and waved his magic wand and presto she was on the Supreme Court. And then she said, “Toto we’re not in Kansas anymore.”
Couldn’t they just take their whining outside? Maybe find a bar and tie one on?
Dude, they closed all the bars.
LOL!

Feel free to share. Would be fun to be able to post images here, but I understand why not.
evil really does influence a face. That little girl – so bright, so hopeful, so beautiful; I cry inside every time I see it. Because that little girl was exposed to evil, and then she CHOSE to embrace it. And now her face is so ugly – not because of facial physical features, but because of the spirit behind* it.
*I was going to say “shining” but evil does NOT shine, it dulls, it emanates, it influences; it does not shine.
Gilbrand – “Americans are suffering.
We are reaching a third coronavirus peak.”
Different areas of the country have been having their first of 3 separate 1st waves.
Yo Sen. Gillibrand. We aren’t suffering from coronavirus, we’re suffering from the state government’s shut down. It’s not the same thing.
On the birthday of Mrs. Bill Clinton!
GOD BLESS AMERICA!
Ah, you mean Monica Lewinsky’s boyfriend’s wife.
If democrats don’t like it they can blame their selfish, miscalulating hero RGB who thought she would outlive Trump. She made her bet and she lost. Winner takes all.
With a tip of the hat to Harry Reid who did away with the filibuster for judges
Look, the Dems lost on the SCOTUS nomination. They let the Notorious RBG, Saint Ruth, remain on the court when she could have retired under Obama and most likely replaced by a liberal jurist. But, they did not and now they lost another seat on that panel. So what do they have left? The old standby; the Republicans will take away your rights, your money and your life. It is interesting that since 1900, and actually before that, it was the Democrats who took away people’s liberty and rights, their money and even their lives. Why does anyone listen to a thing that they say anymore?
RBG didn’t retire because Obama didn’t want to negotiate anything with the Senate or Congress. It’s 100% on him that they lost the seat.
While BHO bears some responsibility for not pushing for RBG to retire, the Dems controlled the Senate prior prior to 2011. It would have been a relatively simple matter to ratify a replacement for RBG prior to the Republican takeover of that body.
While that’s technically true, I don’t think Barry’s little braintrust thought they would lose the legislature so quickly.
I also think single issue voters lead to single-minded politicians that were too busy ramming through Obamacare to worry about anything else.
Not really. BHO had a private lunch at the WH w/RBG in 2013. He tried to persuade her to retire because he thought it was highly likely the GOP would gain control of the Senate in the upcoming midterm election. And BHO was 100% correct.
https://politicalwire.com/2020/09/25/the-quiet-lunch-that-could-have-altered-supreme-court-history/
“‘When Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg joined President Barack Obama for lunch in his private dining room in July 2013, the White House sought to keep the event quiet — the meeting called for discretion,’ the New York Times reports…
He did, however, raise the looming 2014 midterm elections and how Democrats might lose control of the Senate. Implicit in that conversation was the concern motivating his lunch invitation — the possibility that if the Senate flipped, he would lose a chance to appoint a younger, liberal judge who could hold on to the seat for decades.”
I’d say the “blame” (from the Democrat Socialist perspective; I consider it incredibly good luck) falls on the two arrogant narcissists in a 50/50 split. RBG was a devout atheist. In the New Atheist strain of atheism; the kind of atheist that simply have to believe God exists, because they couldn’t direct such anger, hatred, and venom at something that doesn’t exist. So while it should be obvious to anyone that you can time your retirement, it never occurred to RBG that she couldn’t time her death.
A leftist is a jealous god, and thou shalt have no other gods before her.
On the other hand I think it’s “cute” that the NYT reports “[i]mplicit in that conversation was the concern motivating his lunch invitation.” Oh, implicit, was it. Earlier in the article the NYT uses the word “discretion.” This lunch invitation was about as discrete as whacking someone in the head with a 2×4. If Obama wanted to “build rapport” with RBG then he should have started as soon as he was sworn in on 20 January 2013. He should have invited all the justices in turn to the WH for private lunches. Instead he waited six months into his term and only invites RBG who, as the article at the link notes, was then the oldest justice on the court and who already twice had concer.
Could he have made it any more obvious exactly what he wanted form her? And recall Obama liked to brag about how highly he thought of himself and his ability to schmooze people into doing what he wanted. The hustle doesn’t work if you go on TV and brag about how you’re going to con some unsuspecting mark out of their life savings, then you invite the mark to lunch and try to con them out of their life savings.
RBG was a partisan hack, but she wasn’t nearly the gullible fool that Obama clearly thought she was.
The hubris both of them brought to that lunch table doomed the effort before anyone said a word to the other. Thank God.
Because you can fool some of the people all of the time. And they’ve got ’em.
Barrett should be sworn in tonight, immediately after her confirmation.
Vote at 7:30, swearing at 8:00, swearing in at 9:00.
LOL!

Originalism is racist. Originalism is sexist. Originalism is homophobic. Originalism is just a fancy word for discrimination.
But so is equity. And I thought…
“Senate Democrats

‘Senate Republicans have better things to do than pass a relief package…

—@SenWarren explains WHY Senate Republicans are doing what they’re doing.

What are Democrats “fighting” for?
– To keep as many Americans as is within their power locked up and unable to make a living.
– (Related to the above) To destroy the economy and impose socialism.
– In flagrant violation of several sections of the Constitution to shut down churches and religious schools (Cuomo and DeBlasio are targeting Yeshivas), but gay bath houses and abortion clinics are A-OK (now you know what their leftist sacraments consist of).
– After destroying the 1st Amendment of the Bill of Rights, to shred the Constitution entirely.
– To traumatize children and other people who feel vulnerable when their intimate spaces are violated by forcing them to change clothing, shower, and share bathrooms with obviously intact people of the opposite sex.
– To revoke the tax exempt status of churches that insist on following the gospel as delivered by Jesus and as taught and lived by His apostles as opposed to the gospel as rewritten by Nancy Pelosi, Charles Schumer, Joe Biden, NAMBLA, and Planned Parenthood…
The list is long and obviously I could go on and on. They are literally the “Death to America” party and will not stop fighting until they’ve destroyed it. Screw them.
Vote them out by ballot, before we must do so by bullet.
Cry harder ???
