You must always cede the floor to whichever class is at that moment considered more oppressed/less privileged than you and you can never begin to understand or empathize with another classes perspective. And don’t you dare try to demonstrate through facts and evidence that said classes statements are false- that’s just plain ol white privilege. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OldTimeAFLGuy Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 ....LMAO.....the Dems are making reservations for Peace Bridge railing space.......PERFECT..............Justice Kavanaugh approves of this message.... Tom Cotton says Senate will move forward on confirming Ginsburg successor 'without delay' while top Senate Dem alleges hypocrisy Cotton was recently added to Trump's Supreme Court list; ***** sits on the Senate Judiciary Committee By Tyler Olson | Fox News Sen. Tom Cotton said on "Fox News Sunday" that the Senate "will move forward without delay" in confirming a new Supreme Court justice to the seat of late justice and women's rights pioneer Ruth Bader Ginsburg -- as Senate Judiciary Committee member Sen. Chris ***** said Republicans are being hypocritical by moving to advance a nominee. "My condolences to Justice Ginsburg's family and my regard for her lifelong dedication to public service," Cotton, R-Ark., said of the justice, who is regarded as one of the lions of the legal profession and was the face of the liberal bloc of the Supreme Court. "The Senate will exercise our constitutional duty," Cotton said, saying the Senate would process the nomination and hold hearings. "We will move forward without delay." https://www.foxnews.com/politics/tom-cotton-chris-*****-fox-news-sunday-supreme-court-ginsburg 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dubs Posted September 21, 2020 Share Posted September 21, 2020 It's very sad that RBG finally passed. Mortality faces us all. While I totally disagree with her politics, I recognize that she was a trailblazer, smart, and beloved by many. I think that pic from BMan is pretty poignant and should put things in perspective, that at the end of the day we are all human and come into this world the same way and all leave it at some point.

I’d say no. if you ask me while I’m drunk and wanting a one night stand, I’d obviously say yes. Your main concern for the Rs is the “bad look” after Russia and Kavanaugh? If that is what it looks like when we’re all looking good together I say pass. There is no precedent from 2016. The situation is similar only in that a seat is available because a justice died. A bad look, imo, is the suggestion that RBG kept her thoughts on a president replacing her private, shared them with a select few as she spent her final hours reflecting on her life. Certainly she would know a sitting president was under no obligation to act as she saw fit, surely she knew the country is in the midst of serious and significant societal unrest, and surely she would know her dying words would be used as a rallying cry for those intent on destruction. She was 87 years old and a very skilled writer coming to the end of a fight that lasted several years...,she could not pen an op ed for the NYT outlining her thoughts? It seems clear to me that RGB was intent on serving as a justice for the duration of her life, knowing all the obligation and rules that applied as she made that decision, and a huge part of that was that upon death, her seat opened up. She chose to remain all throughout the Obama years, she chose to remain as she battled setback upon setback, and there is nothing written or published that suggests she expected anything other than to see her commitment through to the end. We should respect her enough to honor the process. It only looks bad to the oppostion, and the opposition has shown time and again their contempt for who the President is, what his role is, and for 60,000,000 Americans who support him. Time to move on from this bs Sally Field “You really like me!” garbage. Edited September 22, 2020 by leh-nerd skin-erd 2 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Niagara Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 https://www.rt.com/op-ed/501295-democrats-threatening-impeach-trump/ "RBG, who was 87, lived a long life and served the liberal agenda well, but let’s be honest, even in this mourning period: Ginsburg brought this situation on herself. If you will recall, during Obama’s last term, Democrats urged RBG to retire so he could appoint her replacement. She refused, and set up this situation on her death. She did not want the current president to choose her seat, so, instead of doing the right thing by resigning for health reasons, she hung in there until the bitter end. What an incredibly selfish person. She should have retired years ago. She took her wage from the taxpayers while her law clerks made critical decisions as she, in her 80s, underwent cancer treatment. She held one of the most critical positions in the land, but was perhaps the least competent and fit justices over the past four years. Yet the leftists in the media and the Democratic Party propped her up and made her out to be a saint. Never mind that she was sick and incapable of doing her job – just strap her to her seat and let the law clerks do the rest."

I’m hoping you’ll see more ‘early’ retirements in the future. If she felt so strongly, and she really shouldn’t be political at all, she should’ve retired while a Democrat was in the White House.

ALF Posted September 22, 2020 Share Posted September 22, 2020 When one party has the Senate and WH without needing 60 votes they have the right to confirm a SC Justice if time permits. If the Democrats were in this position you better believe they would do it. If the republicans confirm a SC Justice before the election it will just motivate more Democrats to vote . Garland did not get a hearing in the Senate because it was Republican hoping to take the WH in 2016.Yep elections have consequences , if you don't vote don't complain afterwards. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s interesting and I see a parallel between RBG and Bill Clinton. Both extremely intelligent and capable people, both perhaps a bit on the narcissistic side (one more than the other obviously), but in the end, both “undone” by circumstances that were fairly easy to predict and project. One involved exposing his throat to his enemies on one of the worst kept secrets in politics, the other by over managing the curves that life inevitably throws at us all. Simple human failings.

She let her ego run amok and here we are today with a vacant seat on the court.
