    Oops, sock fail!   Forgot which sock you were posting under, huh?   So, you not only post under multiple socks, but you actually use them to defend your own moronic posts, to make people think that ot

RIP Roe v. Wade.

Welp, there you go.  Congrats, Nazis.  You fucking pulled it off.

At this point, let's stop pretending.

5 justices need to be identified at all times by (R) next to their name. No swing vote left.

Hey protest voters, you fucking idiots, you did this. Great job!

Yeah, Justice Andrew Napolitano is on his way...we're proper fucked.

How fast can they get a Justice confirmed? 

The races are off before the midterms 

Hey Johnny, everything has consequences.

GOP only has 50 votes in the Senate (No McCain).

Only need one GOP Senator to fuck everything up

I'm sure your good pal Jeff Flake is up to the task.

The Senate has every reason to delay it to after the midterms.  They need some reason for people to vote for them.

Jeff Flake - THIS IS MY TIME TO DISAPPOINT!

The GOP has had insane SCOTUS luck over the last 50 years.

In 32 years in the White House (by the end of Trump's first term), they will have appointed at least 14 justices.

In 20 years in the White House over that same time, Democratic Presidents have made four.

Since 1963, the Bush family alone has appointed as many SCOTUS justices as Democratic Presidents.

No bueno..... Letting Trump nominate 2 justices.  LOL.  The Garland blockade will fuck with this country for 2 decades....

 

The news comes out the day after his immigration vote.  Reading His concurrence made me surprised he didn’t dissent.  And that is what he chooses as a swan song.

The GOP has also had bad luck. Stevens and Souter turned out to be as liberal as Ruth Vader

The oldest conservative on the court right now is 70 (Thomas).

RBG is 85 and Breyer is 79.

If the GOP keeps the Senate this year, there's a very small but believable chance he appoints 3 or 4 before 2020.

I'm sure McConnell will respect the will of the American people in the next vote and not consider a nominee until after the Senate has been seated in 2018.

Yeah, but then they'll just make a lame duck appointment if they lose.

Kennedy has been a flake since the beginning. Honestly, I'm glad he's leaving.

 

Welp, RIP American judicial system for the next couple decades

Bullshit.  They are conservative in the traditional sense...it's not their fault the GOP has gone full on big government Nazi.

"Flake" except he cast many important votes, so no.

But Johnny Sack gets to ride his giant 401K to the firing squad, so there's that.

War on Drugs still raging? Oh. See ya later 4th Amendment.

True. Maybe Trump will fuck this up and appoint someone decent.

 

Nah. Who am I kidding.

Turns out elections matter.

But the Bernie Bros made their point, no?

I really am going to miss his opinions and writings. I always would read them whenever they got released, and it's a shame that he's retiring.

If I see any Stein or Johnson voters who "just couldn't stomach voting for Hillary," or Bernie Bros. who sat out like pissy little babies, I'm going to kick them all in the crotch.

I had hoped that the white moderate would understand that law and order exist for the purpose of establishing justice and that when they fail in this purpose they become the dangerously structured dams that block the flow of social progress.

Thanks a lot, straight white guys, for putting the rest of us at risk.

Better make sure Collins and Murkowski are on board.

McCain is out.

which is why all law is bullshit made up by politicians and biased people. How can anyone respect the law?

Why would Flake go against a Republican nomination? He may dislike Trump but putting another Gorsuch on the court would be completely aligned with his political background.

Anyone that wants to have a chance at success, that's who.  Teach your kids to respect the law and stay married, for the sake of society at large.  It is known.

It's the women who matter. This nominee is going to be forced to answer how he or she will vote on Roe. No more bullshit mealy mouthed non-responses.
