Senate Democrats skip hearing amid post-Kavanaugh tensions

By KEVIN FREKING
25 minutes ago

WASHINGTON (AP) -- Just when it seemed the partisan divide on the Senate Judiciary Committee couldn't get much worse, it did. ... Every Democrat on the panel skipped a Wednesday hearing on judicial nominations. The Democrats said the hearing should have been canceled because the Senate is not in session ahead of next month's election.....

Sooo, the Democrats in the Senate are skipping the hearings because they have better things to do and this causes the DUmmies to get pissed?

1. I hate Republicans
 
I ****ing hate them. They wouldn't even give President Obama's nominees the courtesy of hearings - not just Garland but lots of the lower court judges as well. Now that the orange **** is in office they can't shovel his nominees in fast enough.

Ouch.

DUmmy 47of74 hates Republicans.

This is supposed to make me sad.

This is how sad I am:  :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

2. What wisdom can a 36 year old bring to the bench?
 
The rise and fall of decades, economies, parties, policies, generations, norms ... these are what make judgment, wisdom, perspective. In my view 36 year olds just don't have it to be judges.


Ask Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez age 28

6. Rushing is being appointed for her ideology, not her wisdom, obviously. nt

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez age 28 agrees.

I don't think they quite grasp the concept of 'this is why we elected them.'

And honestly, it's such an easy concept to understand.
