Hardly. But if that gives you some fake comfort to claim victory in a subtrhread you were not even part of, hey, I guess you win after all.

How am I claiming victory? I never said you lost to me.

Marshall was much more solidly liberal than Clark who was a centrist, and LBJ was concerned about the court overturning his program that's why he did it.

I'd forgotten about the trick that LBJ pulled.

Hey, you learned to use the <center> tag. Ain't you smart.

Thanks for admitting you hate the Constitution too. You'll miss it if it's gone.

You mean, like our president just suggested?

Since you need it explained to you, McConnell is using Democratic tactics against them. The Dems don't deserve to have "Repubs" play it straight (as it were) since they never do. And frankly, since the Turtle is actually going by the Constitution, nothing else matters, particularly since the law is the Constitution and not the personal feelings of this person or that person.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg had three votes against her in 1993, so I assume that republicans have been supportive as well. It got a little more partisan with Roberts, who had 22 votes against. The. Alito had 42 votes against, so even more partisan.

Republicans were more supportive of Sotomayor and Kagan, who had 31 and 37 votes against. Gorsuch and Kavanaugh were very partisan.

I don’t think it’s nearly the same as Borking. If anything, it was like FDR’s failed court packing plan, but significantly shrewder.

Olog-hai would love it if our Constitution were eliminated and replaced with biblical law.

Gorsuch and Kavanagh can be explained as resentment from McConnell stealing a seat from Obama.

So Merrick Garland should also have been considered?

He should have gone by the Constitution in 2016, but he didn’t. He is a hypocrite of the highest order and so are you.

I wish hell existed so that McConnell could burn.

No. You still don't get it, do you. The context is the Constitution and preserving, protecting and defending it.
