[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So much sanctimonious b-s about the senate doing its duty, etc. I am a liberal and if someone like a Ginsburg were to retire or die, I'd want a Democratic senate to use every available means to block the nomination if the president were Republican - and if the vacancy occurred in an election year. It is just politics and both sides indulge in this sort of thing. It is the reason why Schumer essentially talked about blocking nominations under GWB after Roberts and Alito were appointed and turned out to be even more conservative than was anticipated.[/quote] Well, I am a liberal and I disagree. I would perhaps be relieved if a Democratic senate did it, but I'd know I was being a hypocrite because it is not the right thing to do. It's the cowardly thing to do. The right thing to do is give the nominee a vote. If he's that bad, don't vote for him. But it's wrong to block even a vote.[/quote]
