Democrats Locked In: Can They Stop Gorsuch’s Confirmation?

A trio of Senate Democrats announced their opposition to Supreme Court nominee Neil Gorsuch on Monday, giving Minority Leader Chuck Schumer the forty votes he needs to mount a filibuster against the Republicans.

Dianne Feinstein of California, Patrick Leahy of Vermont, and Mark Warner of Virginia joined the blockade this week, foreshadowing what promises to be an explosive (and yet, very short) showdown with Mitch McConnell and the president. McConnell has vowed to push Gorsuch through by Friday, filibuster or no filibuster, which means he will probably be forced to use the “nuclear option” and change the rules of the Senate.

“Despite his impressive academic credentials, Judge Gorsuch’s record and evasive responses – even refusing to answer questions regarding his views of cases like Roe v. Wade and Citizens United – do not give me confidence that he possesses a judicial philosophy that will serve the American public well,” Warner said.

What a wise and thoughtful statement.

Of course, it’s complete BS.

Gorsuch could have gone out there with an aborted fetus under his arm, proclaiming his lifelong passion for the writings of Ruth Bader Ginsberg, and it wouldn’t have changed a thing. The Democrats would just find some other reason to justify their filibuster. This is about two things: Opposing Trump and getting revenge for the Merrick Garland saga.

What it certainly is NOT about is the integrity of the Supreme Court, which was all the Democrats could talk about last spring. Oh, look at the harm McConnell is doing to the until-now apolitical judiciary! This is unprecedented! People will start to think the Supreme Court isn’t actually filled with dispassionate immortals who are not swayed by anything so petty as “opinions” or “politics.”

So this just proves that Democrats only retreat to the moral high ground when they have no other options. “They go low, we go high.” But, er, only when we can get what we want. Only when we have the majority. Only when we’re leading in the polls. If we’re behind, then screw it: Anything goes, sucka!

You’re seeing a lot of conservative pundits mount that high horse right now, blasting the Democrats for rejecting a perfectly mainstream nominee and tarnishing the good name of the Court and the Senate.

Which is fine and has its place, but let’s be serious. This is all politics, from top the bottom. As far as we’re concerned, a “liberal” judge – meaning, someone who divines their wisdom from something other than the Constitution’s original intent – should never be within 10 miles of the Supreme Court, and these clowns probably feel the same way in reverse.

If it takes breaking the hallowed rules of the Senate to put one of our own on the Court, then we’ll just have to live with it.

  • In the mindless pushing of their progressive (Communist) ideology, the left is guilty of politicizing every branch of the United States Government.

    • liberaldisgust

      MAHB001 , I agree with everything you say and I believe the so called Left is guilty of far more than politicizing The Agencies of the Federal Government , they are in fact guilty of sedition , which is incitement of the people through speech or action to rebel against the authority of the State …. and this isn’t protected free speech …… I also believe we are in the middle of a civil war that the left is waging on America and the American citizens who believe in the Founding and the Constitution ….. it’s been smoldering for years but our educational institutions are now fully engaged for all to see if you open your eyes …..

      Politicizing or Weaponizing when it fits democrap purposes (see Weaponizing IRS to deny the Tea party political-party tax status currently enjoyed by both RNC and DNC, Obama politicizing Supreme’s for favorable ruling on Obamacare fine/taxation, weaponing EPA to pass enforceable regulations with Congressional ect, ect, ect).

      • All with the end goal of a more controlling Government… Control of resources, control of the peoples labor (taxes) and control of the people (slavery),

        Which is Communism…

        • Mike Burkett

          Unfortunately, the bed-wetting leftist constituency (mainly criminals, gays, affirmative-action recipients and the uninformed sheep following atrocities), no longer fits the standard definition of what was to be American. Hard-working, rugged/tough, independent and, accountable while exhibiting a ‘Gov’t, get out of my way’ attitude and individualism.

    Cloture used to require a two-thirds majority. This was back in the days when filibusters were rare. The cloture requirement was reduced from two-thirds to three-fifths in 1975–a more manageable 60 votes.

    When Obama took office, Republicans were filibustering everything. Even when a bill had the support of a majority of Senators and had enough votes to pass if an up or down vote were held on the bill itself, if you cannot get the 60 votes for cloture, to end discussion of the bill, you never get to vote on the bill itself!

    Now that the Republicans have a majority in the Senate and the Whitehouse they want to change the rules. I believe this will have a major impact in the 2018 elections. Voters are very angry today with the current mess in Congress and I believe the Democrats will go after the 11 million more voters that did not vote for Trump. That’s right it was 11,000,000+, remember Hillary got 3 million more than Trump that still left millions more who didn’t vote for Trump. I also believe that there’s going to be major changes coming in very near future and many more voters are not going to like them.

    I’m also predicting that there is a real possibility that the November 2018 elections will change the Senate to Democrat control.

        Now tell me hoe YOU like it. Bourgeois devil.

        • It is not about “who” I like, it is about “what” I like! I DO like our country as the founding fathers intended it. I DO like the freedoms I used to enjoy by God’s grace. I DO like the leadership role the United States used to enjoy and be responsible for maintaining.

          I do NOT like anything that destroys that position. I do NOT like people, places, or things that interfere with a resurgence of our Christian roots. I do NOT like folks that think we need to re-make America into some fantasy that does not and can not exist. And, most importantly, I do NOT like sore losers that refuse to acknowledge the “will of the people” in this country.

          So, yes, SDSTFU and let the adults handle this while you watch, listen, and learn.

      never going to happen because the illegals won’t be allowed to vote again. And with the democrats constantly acting like jerkoffs they are losing millions of voters in their own party.

    • Ron C

      The 4 million dead people that voted are being cleaned from the voter rolls.

      • Marjorie Lee Peterson

        They have actually found 11,000, 000 registered DEAD voters!

        • Ron C

          Wow…the story I read yesterday was at four mil count…won’t surprise me though.

    • Marjorie Lee Peterson

      For crying out loud, and that’s exactly what you’re doing! It was ok with you when the Democrats used this EXACT nuclear option on US, but now that the shoe is on the other foot, you’re mad. Well you can be as mad as you want, but Gorsuch is going to be approved on Friday whether YOU like it or not! You Democrat Snowflakes are so full of BS you smell! As for the next election, WE are also going to get out and vote. Just like we did to elect Trump and then there will be MANY FEWER Democrats in Congress then there is now! The Democrat party, thanks to people like you and the whinny people they have in Congress have already made good and sure that your party is dying. We will make sure in the next election that they breathe their last breath as a party!

      • Mustafa Curtess

        Best we all calm down and see how Trump performs. What he actually achieves (and more importantly: HOW he achieves it) in the next 2 – 3 years – before we take 2020 for granted. At the moment we are euphoric that Hillary wasn’t elected and the destruction of the Republic has suffered a set-back – but it is far too early to learn what Trump may actually deliver. Should he choose to run in 2020 – at the moment “it is his to lose”, and he has great latitude to do so.
        The smug rhetoric we are hearing so strongly from the “Religious Right” at the moment is only part of that euphoria – but ignores human nature, and they themselves are ignoring the fact that an under-estimated % of themselves are members of the LGBT community, that outwardly devout Christians DO need and choose abortions, and DO appreciate genuine Freedom of Religion and how it benefits us ALL.
        Faced with the national disgust and mistrust for Hillary (and her like) the Democrats can easily nominate a Centrist candidate that says all the things the secretly-secular electorate wants to hear. If the Trump Admin. over-estimates the public’s appetite for a Christian Dictatorship, and betrays the support of “liberal” Republicans – his (or any Republican’s) “win” in 2020 should not be taken for granted.
        It is totally un-necessary to betray and alienate any segment of American society to “MAGA”. (We can’t be “Great” if we do so.)
        To say that “2020 is our’s to lose” may not be popular – but it is a reality.

    • OK, I agree with your statement of “cheating to get what you want”. But, I have a question…”what did you call it when Harry Reid did it?”. Probably something like…”if it weren’t for those obstructionist Republicans, we wouldn’t have to do this”…right?

      How about this as a solution…you and your fellow communists need to understand you’re living in America. As a whole, we don’t like your kind. We have tolerated your existence here for the 60 years. Those days are gone. If continue to feel compelled to change this country into something it was designed to combat, I suggest you either leave or be prepared to be silenced.

      As a country, we are done with you. Enough is enough. Tolerance is no longer tolerated. Go ahead, call me what you wish. Just like the Harry Reid Democrat controlled Senate…you caused it.

      Were you mature enough to accept the will of the American people through a proper election, this would not be happening. But, alas, you are not. So, just like children misbehaving beyond the realm of normal discipline, you will be spanked and sent to your room indefinitely. You will stay there until we tell you it is alright to come out. But even then, understand it is on probation. Try the same crap again, BOOM, back to your room!

      • Marjorie Lee Peterson

        Very well said! The ONLY reason they’re doing this is they don’t like the President and they don’t like that Republicans decided that Obama didn’t have a right to appoint a Supreme Court Judge during an election year. Especially since he was going to be OUT of office no matter who won the election. Well, guess he was kinda counting on having a third term when Hillary won, but we all know how THAT turned out!

    • mudguy1

      So just why didn’t you call it cheating when Harry Reid changed the rules? Evert time you Democrats lose you change the rules to your benefit. Just why was it ok for Obama to nominate a Supreme Court Justice in in last year in office and Pelosi, Schumer, and many others said the G,W, Bush should not in his last year in office. The Democrat Party should be a very clean Party be cause the have changed what they believe in so many times. They are like the weather if you don’t like the weather you are having wait 5 minutes and it will change. I have never seen so many hypocrites in one place in my life. They need to change the name of their Party to the Party of Hypocrites.

    • Marjorie Lee Peterson

      And the Democrats are the ones who thought up this way of cheating and made it a president so they could get their candidates through when they controlled the House! Now they have to live with the fact that we can use it too! They thought they could make it legal for them to do things that way but they could stop us from doing the same. Well, turn about’s fair play! We are just following their example!

    • chief1937

      You are correct and Harry Reid did just that.

  • Tiger

    NO and you won’t stop this Kabuki dance about a Russian/Trump Connection, so you will fall deeper into the grave you are digging for yourselves.

    You won’t stop anything but your own party and you can kiss your asses and your jackasses good-bye. All that is left is your funeral and bringing out your new flag of Progressive/Communism. That will get you deeper into the funk you are in and finish you off.

            they have been working for themselves for many many years and not the American people, With Trump maybe we can get rid of them.

  • gotabgood

    The name Merrick Garland keeps coming to mind… anybody remember him?

    • Ron C

      Yes…another activist judge.

    • alegalcitizen

      Does the name Joe Biden come to YOUR mind when he said lame duck Presidents shouldn’t be able to pick the next Supreme Court Justice??? hmmmmm?

      • gotabgood

        No I don’t know that…and still don’t…. you want to show that to me?
        A lame duck, in politics, is an elected official whose successor has already been elected. The official is often seen as having less influence with other politicians due to their limited time left in office.
        Obama had a year to go… Trump had not even won the primaries yet!!!! Obama was NOT a lame duck!!!

        • alegalcitizen

          OK, my bad, he wasn’t a lame duck President, he was just “lame”. You can google the Biden rule, all by your itty bitty self and SEE what he proposed. The Dems. didn’t really raise a stink last year on Garland because they though HiLIARy would be elected, they were WRONG!

          • gotabgood

            Once again you confessed your error… (my hat is off to you for that), so what Biden did or did not say about a lame duck president… does not pertain to Obama and his appointee.

          • alegalcitizen

            It wasn’t anything to do with a lame duck president, it was about submitting a supreme court nominee in your last year of being president. Personally I didn’t want another “liberal” on the court.

          • gotabgood

            I can truly understand why you don’t want another Liberal on the court, (He even though he is a moderate.. but even at that, it would put him far left of the trumpeter’s).
            A Liberal want all to be able to vote…. will keep voting booths open in all districts. Will bring back the voting rights. Sad, we have to have these kind of laws so people can exercise their voting RIGHTS!
            And heaven forbid about our God given freedoms to choose what is best for ourselves. You want to restrict or deny our choices.
            And labor laws.. you feel the capitalist have your best interest at heart, HA!. Every one want to go back to when America was great…. well for your information, that was when we had decent wages, still had a few free colleges, and a few non-profit hospitals.
            You applaud coal and boo green energy… we all drink the same water, breathe the same air and eat the same food… like EPA said the pesticide was dangerous and Trump told Dow Chemical, I trust you… wash your food real good… it that even helps…

          • alegalcitizen

            I’m a woman, but those 3 women on the Supreme court are flaming LIBERALS, They are not saying what the founders say, they think it’s all about change. Yeah, I love some of that change, letting someone who “thinks” they are a woman into the ladies bathroom, shower, etc, that is truly INSANE.
            Hey I have NO problem with people voting, I live in Michigan, I have to show my pictured ID to vote, IF you can’t have legal ID, HOW in hades do you open a bank account, cash a check, purchase alcohol, get on a plane, get SS or Medicaid, or Medicare???? How ya gonna do all of this??? NO ONE who is LEGALLY a citizen has been stopped from voting in my State, but I did see in Detroit where the ballot box had more votes than people who voted, WHERE did that come from???
            I want to restrict ILLEGAL choices. Killing a baby in the womb is a choice, but who’s choice the baby’s??? WHY didn’t the person getting PG make a choice of birth control, and NOT FORCE someone else to pay for it????
            Green energy??? hmmm, lots of windmills that are stopped when we drive the wind farms. Solar doing more harm by the chemical they release, so go ahead pick the looney lefties. Right now someone with big boy pants is in charge.

          • gotabgood

            To end the discussion once and for all, would be to incorporate something like Oregon has done. Automatic registration at 18th birthday, problem solved.
            The way some of the states have incorporated the photo ID is you have to have more ID to just get the ID. there are many incidents of older people not being able to get photo ID, because lack of marriage license and there was a retired WW ll vet having trouble getting voter ID… then there are case of the state has pronounced you dead.. now you have to prove you’re not dead.. Stupid…

    It’s both fun and amusing to watch the democrats self destruct. I didn’t think they could top their stupidity when they sent crooked Hillary and crusty commy Bernie as their candidates for President but here they are again trying to look ridiculous and insane. Can’t wait to hand them another beating at mid term elections next year they sure seem to want just that. And the moral of their story will be “Then there was none”. Obama and the Clinton’s have driven a stake into the heart of the democratic party, But the party on death row doesn’t seem to want to help itself anyways so just like the insane health bill they forced on the people that’s slowly dying they too will soon die and disappear. And now for our entertainment and amusement on center stage we have Chuckles the clown trying to stop the republicans even though he has no power to do so. The democrats are a hoot but make them stop.

    • Ron C

      I would say the democrat’s obvious hypocrisy and their disingenuous MSM have used Hillary & Obama as the stake they put through their heart’s…such disgusting creatures they have become!

    • rfrichey

      I think in the end the democrats will forsake the moniker of Democrats and proceed as the Communist party of the US. They have a good start of not having to start from scratch as they have millions of blind followers.

      • Marjorie Lee Peterson

        I’m hoping another good party on the side of the Constitution like the Democrats used to be, will come up to take their place. That’s what we need, to be able to choose from 2 candidates who will support the Constitution. Like we used to have.

        • rfrichey

          That scenario doesn’t seem realistic with the bunch of idiots on the left side at the present. It baffles me how people born into this great country seem dead set on taking it down. Liberalism is definitely a mental illness.

        • The Democrats have been the evil party from their beginning with Andrew Jackson who drove the Indians from their land, tried to kill them with the trail of tears and promoted slavery. After the Republicans freed the slaves, they passed the Jim Crow laws with segregation and started the KKK and Planed Parenthood to eliminate the Negro Race with abortions. To help that along, their members did a lot of lynchings. They fought the Civil Rights laws and destroyed our cities with Democrat Mayors and school board members. They have worked hard to make the Federal Government so big it doesn’t work anymore. They have convinced good people they have the answers to help the disadvantaged but their solutions never solve the problems. They are for saving the planet and their methods such as condemning CO2 is wrong and has destroyed our economy and have done little to truly solve the pollution problems. Saving energy has been costly and now we need to burn more fossil fuel to put more CO2 in the atmosphere to grow more food. The Democrats are for One World Government with no borders and a central control socialist government. They have been and still are evil causing millions of lives to be lost around the world.

          • mrpoohead

            The difference between the Republicans and the Democrats basically comes down to LGBT, abortion and gun regulation – one is conservative the other is Conservative. It is a plutocracy – designed to keep the 5% in charge. Compared to our peers (W Europe, Canada, NZ and Australia) it is a joke and the reason we have the worst social disparity, social mobility (yet we still claim to be the land of freedom and opportunity), the worst healthcare and education systems, plus a homicide rate five to ten times theirs. We are the shit-hole of the modern world!!!!!!!!!!

      Tim Kane has said some things that are just not coherent! I think he’s almost as bad as HIllary, and I sure don’t want him back in the Senate in 2018! He will NEVER get a vote from me and if we’re lucky, not enough to stay. I say IF we’re lucky, cause Va. was one of the idiot states that went for the other side last Nov.

    Where there is a will there is a way, Gorsuch, will be confirmed one way or the other. The Lib-otard Commies, will never get their devious way. their political suicide is just around the corner and We, the voting majority will be there to witness their downfall, in more ways than one. 🙂

  • Michael Paul

    We are supposed to be a constitutional republic where I emphasize CONSTITUTIONAL. The left thinks that the constitution is fluid and should change with the times but they are wrong. The constitution defines our legal system and is not set up to make wrong into right or things that are not there into things that are there. Legalized abortion whether you are for or against it, was bad law because of its lack of constitutional merit. Abortion, gay marriage and things of this like are meant to be determined by each state individually. The purpose of the Supreme Court is not to make law as the liberal politicians use it but to interpret the law based on the constitution. For this reason, I will support any justice, no matter who they are appointed by, so long as they are strict interpreters of the constitution unlike Ginsberg, Kagan, Sotomayer and Souter. Gorsuch fills that bill for me as I hope all future appointees of President Trump will do.

      Your thoughts bring out the failure of the “state’s rights” provisions in fundamental and absolute terms. A key omission in your examples is “slavery”, and another is “racial segregation”.
      Having proven themselves to be unwilling to allow equal civil and human rights uniformly across the nation, states simply can not be trusted to exercise those rights absolutely.
      It is tempting to say that we support “strict interpreters” of the Constitution – while in reality that means our own personal interpretations.
      It seems that in judiciary confirmation hearings, it is a protocol that: It is improper to ask for comments on standing rulings and on likely ones.
      So far – I feel that SCOTUS has done outstanding service to the U.S. public on all issues of individual civil and human rights. I would not wish for this to change. (I’m not sure what I would like to see done about senile Justices like Ginsberg – but obviously something needs to be done.)

  • No they cannot stop the new Supreme Court Justice selected by Potus

    So it appears the liberals will have another reason for safe places, unpeaceful protest and more name calling. They being anti-gun and all, are about to shoot themselves in the foot- again. The LAW OF THE land is the CONSTITUTION. To messing with it like taking a perfectly running engine apart to see why it is running so good and putting it back together. Now it not run so good. Bang! in the foot.

    I have to say: I’m 72yo, and I’ve witnessed my share of presidents, but I have NEVER seen shit fly like it’s doing now. This once mighty country elected a farce and a clown for a president and the sumbitch wasn’ even legal! Can anyone even begin to imagine what shape this country would be in if we took all the shit we’re putting Mr Trump thru and heaped it onto the lil halfbreed faggot YEARS AGO?? I have the feeling that this shit will still be on the fire for the next 10 years! ??

    They are treasonous. I worked with a bunch of these communist b——s. This is what we have to put up with in America. The WWII vets warned me of these lowlifes!

  • Albedamned!

    These crooked libturds will rob from their own family, while their family is on the government payroll. Immoral thieves.

    After seeing this Schumers actions the past month, when i think of Schumer, I think of the devil. I’ve been around politics since the 60’s and I am beginning to realize what evil these guys are made of. I’m going to have to say more later. Right now, I’m just sick to my stomach.

  • WhiteFalcon

    Since Mitch McConnell is beginning to show a little spine now that he has majorities all over the place, little Chuckie is going to lose. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

    President Trump Defends Bill O’Reilly Amid Sexual Harassment Claims
    Reminds me of an old nursery rhyme, ( a little editing ) smile

    It is hard to believe there are mostly STUPID people within the Democratic portion of Congress. Those IDIOTIC BASTARDS are lower than ANIMALS in their thinking and actions.

  • John

    I think I’ve seen pictures of this kind of unity for power over law and people’s rights. Mao’s red guard, Stalin’s parades of military power, Hitler’s grand extravaganzas, Tienimin Square (sp.?).

  • Peter Smith

    Can the Democrats stop the confirmation of Gorsuch? In a word, NOPE! Wait til they realize they broke the Senate rule for good and President Trump puts one to possibly three more conservative justices on the SCOTUS. I cannot wait to hear their wails of despair ……… LOL!

  • i laugh at using the nuclear option opposition regarding “in the future” the dems may use it. there is no future if we don’t use it. we don’t even know if the country itself will last four more years before it becomes part of the new world order and the muslim caliphate.. only one man is stopping this…Donald Trump who saw it and vowed to stop it and people are opposing him?

  • No they cannot stop POTUS from having congress approve his selection of new members of the Supreme Court
    and investigation into what extent POTUS communicates with the heads of all other nations the remaining i the job of the president

  • My country

    They had better get themselves together as adults . Everthing democrats have been doing especially for eight years is coming to the end . Their behavior is as kindergarten children and their loyalty to this country is appalling. They had better not stop this because there will be a price to pay and it is coming like a wreck. The reason we are not seeing progress is because democrats could not win so they ran as republicans and are voting as democrats. The jig is up and the scrutiny they will face when they want to retain their cushy job will be a miserable adventure for them . As for republicans the names of those who are obstructing Trump is being published everyday so people can see who is destroying this country . Their opinions do not matter the people want to get this country productive again . This can’t be done until the burden of millions of illegals is removed and these obstructionists are removed as well . Hey these idiots only work 130 days a year . Live off the people get the best healthcare and retirements there is and live like celebrities . And get paid a big salary upwards of $200,000.00 a year . For what ?

  • Rude Richard

    Congress is a joke that isn’t funny. They make ridiculous laws that support fringe groups that pay off the congressmen. Our whole system of government operates on Bribes that they call campaign contributions thinking that makes it legal. Taking money to support some fringe or special interests groups is illegal no mater what you call it. Let the executions begin… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/d916b8ea91fc74283d3386141bfa7972bf515655745d58c69c433aec8665f5bc.jpg

    Wasn’t Gorsuch already confirmed yesterday? It appears the timing of this article is off by one whole day. Am I missing something here?

  • liberaldisgust

    Uh , Gorsuch has already been confirmed …. time to update the page 4/8/2017

  • downs1

    The left is going to bring down this nation one way or the other! Their hatred for Donald Trump and their actions in the Gorsuch case are just one more sign of their absolute foolishness! Add this to the pending actions of the Federal Reserve and we are seeing the coming demise of America as we know it! No more are we the “United States”. But . . . we are in the process of “reaping what we have sown”! Islam is just waiting to take over, but the left has done everything possible to make it easier for these “jihadists” to enter the country over the past eight years! Incidentally, when that happens the LGBTQ community should know that they will become a prime target along with “true” Christians! The “cultural” Christians will simply convert to Islam! After all, in their ignorance, they believe we serve the same God!

  • The Redhawk

    Can the SCHMUCK Stop JUSTICE Gorsuch…?? NO! He was too Busy trying to Empty the Ocean with a TEA spoon and not even the REST of his Anarchists Get the job Done….. another empty Don QUIXOTE like attempt to fight Wind mills by that MORON CLOWN!!!

  • fordfool

    they ddnt want the Senate rules changed…but ONLY when they want to…does any of them know the Nation + the world is watching them? Iv learned long ago folks, there’s more assholes in the world than asses to go round

  • My country

    The republicans had better get to work instead of taking more time off . None of them deserve their high salaries Senate or Republicans . Our national security is at risk and they squabble over putting a judge into place who has some moral values . Especially not one democrats has the Americans interest. Our border is wide open . If you are stupid enough to believe peacefull Mexicans are all that enters you are crazy . Our FBI has issued a dire warning to America . It is not if but when we will be attacked and killed by suitcases full of nuclear and now Sarin gas . They did this to a commuter train in Japan ., Thousands will die and yet we have those among us who just tip toe through the tulips as if we are all just racist . When in fact they haven’t looked up what racist means .
