In before....

When it suited the Democrats they urged that a Republican President NOT appoint a Supreme Court Justice up to 18 months before his term was up. Now that the shoe is on the other foot the lies and hypocrisy coming from the Democrats is so deep you need waders to keep out of it. Consider these two Democrat hypocrites:

Chuck Schumer - The Schumer Rule - 2007

Joe Biden - The Biden Rule 1992

News flash to Schumer, Biden and the rest of the Democrats "Live by the sword, die by the sword." You will now reap what you have sown. And if you think you can filibuster your way out of this, thank Harry Reid for implementing the Nuclear Option....AT ANY LEVEL of government. The flood gates are open!

It's time for the lying and cheap political tricks to end. The American people have long seen through this. Antonin Scalia was a solid justice in the mainstream of modern jurisprudence. You could argue, and rightly so, that he redefined modern jurisprudence. Anyone similar to him is by definition "in the mainstream" of American law. Enough with the crocodile tears and the games Mr.Schumer!
