This issue of sexual harassment has nothing whatsoever to do with what the American people THINK.
It's a matter of law. The Senate said fine, come and tell us you story.

Ford is full of it, or she would gladly go tell her story. But she can't, cause lying to the Senate would be perjury, and she knows it. :lol:



/e Dems need to deal with the fact that Trump appointing a SC judge is perfectly legal, and they just lost out on the timing.


/ee Not to mention that leaving the SC with only 8 members is doing a severe disservice to this country. It practically renders the SC useless.

Ya know what I would do if I was Trump. I would have congress pass a law that the SC could not be left with fewer than 9 judges for say longer than two months, maximum.

/e Cause without a full SC, the lower courts will have no oversight. And I think we've all seen how utterly ridiculous they can be even with a sitting full SC.


inb4 Hi I'm Hoford and I bought a 2nd irony meter and it broke too. :/

So with your hypothetical law we would have SC Judge Garland. Yay!

No SC can have 0nly 8 judges, with Senate approval.

You realize how silly you two are gonna look when this is all over and the SC is 5-4 conservative. And all these BS reasons, misdirections, dodges etc. will then look asinine.


To Hoford and Beo from Ford...

Kavanaugh > Garland

Known Fact. Garland will fade into black while BK will be on the Supreme Court for decades.

His Name Was Robert Paulson, btw.

he's correct tho, an even number of justices evenly split along ideological lines renders the USSC rather useless. although it would be a disaster, a 5-4 progressive court would be more useful. even if the use was writing terrible precedent into law that takes decades to normalize to.
