How is it not hypocritical to push thorugh an SC nominee right before an election after block Obama?

This is obviously the same situation as Scalia dying in the final stretch of Obama's term, so how is pushing through a justice less than 2 months before an election different now? What happened to letting the voters decide?

It’s not different and the Republican Senators that said it then are now doing verbal gymnastics now to rationalize their positions.

Its no different at all. It was bullshit then and its bullshit now. Just more lying and logical gymnastics to entice the rank and file morons to support "their side"

Remember the wonderful polls in 2016..... and the 98.4% win probability?

Thank the left wing media for this SC seat!

Imagine it. She wanted to make history, but instead will be footnoted as giving away her seat.

All you have to do is refute it...

 

This is the constitutional process and the historical norm. There has been a Supreme Court vacancy arising in an election years 29 times in American history. In 10 of those cases the presidency was held by one party and the Senate was held by a different party. Nine of those 10 nominees were rejected by the Senate, just like Garland was rejected.

On the other hand, there have been 19 times when a Supreme Court seat became vacant in an election year where both the presidency and the Senate were controlled by the same party. Only one nominee, Abe Fortas, was rejected.

And Fortas was rejected on a bipartisan basis after an ethics scandal. All other nominees were confirmed in an election year when the Senate and the president were of the same party.

Ginzberg should have retired 1, 2, 3 YEARS ago. She chose to stay while being ravaged by cancer. She should have spent her final days with her family, but she was a FEMINIST, and chose to fight for her cause.........to her dying breath.

Congress is under no obligation to approve Trump's appointee but they have to consider it. Its the very same thing. The exact same thing.

I am sucking on the tears of the likes of you sniveling because your people did not rise up at the midterms like chuck begged them to do because as he put it you are not just voting for congress but the next 20 yrs of the highest court in the land . Guess what the people did just that . 

But you go fuck your self it may relieve some of your frustrations about  life

To quote Barack Obama "elections have consequences".

The American voters were so impressed with Obamacare and the process that the Democrats used to ram it down our throats that they saw fit to change the majority in the Senate by a wide enough margin to put the brakes on the Obama administration.
