If Cruz's fear mongering and pandering to the lowest common denominator morons of the base wasn't so pathetic and dangerous, it would be highly comical. 

Also - my family and I took a drive this afternoon and we took A1A which is the beach road that runs along the east coast here in Florida.  Anyway, I can't tell you the number of Trump signs I saw on oceanfront properties.  That I can understand. 

What I can't fathom is the number of signs in lower middle class neighborhoods I'm seeing. 

What in the actual farg is wrong with these idiots?  These houses are filled with northeastern retirees living on government or corporate pensions, social security or other fixed incomes (disability, VA, etc.).  In other words, they're the same sort of "freeloaders" these fargfaces are always bitching about in speeches.  Do they not understand that they're the ones who are being ridiculed or do they just think it's a bunch of lazy coloreds and Mexicans Trump, Cruz & Rubio keep attacking?

I seriously do not understand this country.  Are people so laughably stupid they would actually buy what a disgusting carnival barker like Trump or a corporate whore like Rubio or a certifiably insane jackass like Cruz is selling?

we took A1A

Were the girls hot and wearing less than bikinis?

RBG should immediately announce her retirement and Barry should use every minute of the next year trying to get those two slots filled so that everyone knows exactly who and what they're voting for in November. If the electorate decides to vote Rep then we can all just call it quits and watch it burn.

[Diomedes]

Because her retirement would stop the court's work completely?

[rjs246]

No, because it would lock two more Obama appointees into place for the long term and further expose the GOP's idiocy. It wouldn't change their tactics one bit, of course, but it would change the ground they are attempting to stand on. One of their giants just died and they're having a sad and are talking about honoring his legacy and all of that horseshtein. He was one of THEIRS and THEY want to have a say in replacing him. Doesn't sail with us but that appears to be the rallying cry. RGB retiring would not give them any ground to stand on whatsoever. It would be seen purely and exactly for what it is. Petulant obstructionism.

[Diomedes]

Pretty rich that the Republicans want to use an "originalist" Justice's death as reason to demand that the President and the Congress not do their explicit constitutional duty.

That job opening in Canada looks better every day.

[MDS]

there are over 300 days left in obama's term

on average, in the last century, it takes around 65 days to appoint a new SCJ.

fun times ahead

[smeags]

Longest was Thomas which was around 100 days.

[Diomedes]

I heard 125.

Point is these fools have plenty of time to do their jobs.

[Rome]

Can Obama appoint himself to the bench as a recess appointment?   Because that would be so awesome I would literally explode with joy.

[Diomedes]

My wife said that President Hillary would appoint Obama.

Having been a constitutional law professor, a US Senator and the President I would say that he's more than qualified. As the personification of everything that makes the GOP lose their minds HAHAHAHAHA.

(Well, almost everything that makes the GOP lose their minds. If his last name were Clinton he'd be hitting for the cycle.)
