Until McCain actually does something, anything aside from flapping his gums but supporting that flaming bag of orange peels at the same, he can take a seat.

Funny thing...my family (who are all born again Christians) have the tact NEVER to say this to me. “Corgis, aren’t you glad you’re here with us and not dead in a dumpster?”

… isn’t he the only R in congress promising committee hearings into the Russian connections…

Yep, my mother just called me out of the blue today, and her first words went like so:

Those two could have voted no when this was in committee, and it wouldn’t have come to the full Senate for a vote. This was a calculated move to make them appear more centrist while still betting able to confirm DeVos.

Rumor has it they only decided to cast their votes against her once Mitch McConnell made sure the rest of the troops were in line. They only did this for saving face.

No. Collins could’ve tried stopped this thing in committee and didn’t. She always pulls shit like this to look moderate. Fuck her hoping all my ME friends send her ass packing!

Didn’t Murkowski have the chance to kill this nomination in committee? I thought it was a 12-11 vote with her voting yes to advance this to the full Senate.

Let’s put this in perspective:

All of my exes must be THRIVING in life right now.

Yeah and when the religious excuse started breaking down(ie, just listening to that fucking shitbag’s mouth spewing out reason he did it) it became the usual, “Well he was just a troubled, crazy youth”.

Seriously. I wasn’t surprised when he won, but I was dumb enough to think the republicans, so many of whom professed to hate him, would keep him in check, at least a small bit. Stupid me.

I would add Rob Portman of Ohio to this list,
DC: 202-224-3353
Columbus: 614-469-6774
Cincinnati: 513-684-3265
Cleveland: 216-522-7095
Toledo: 419-259-3895

He’s a long shot but he doesn’t seem to feel any loyalty to the Trump admin and DeVos owes millions of dollars to the State of Ohio

I just read the transcript, and even by Trumpian standards, that was.....pretty goddamn terrible. I can only imagine how much worse it was live. Seriously, can someone, anyone, not get this man a fucking speechwriter?

well if we are all dead that does explain why Frederick Douglass is still around

No.

Those who forget the past are condemned to repeat it. I think somebody famous said that, but I forget.

No, but it’s 2017. So 1939 was 78 years ago.

It looks like the top choices have a fairly bog standard conservative pedigree, with little evidence that they will toe some ideological party line parallel to Trump’s cockeyed view of constitutionality. Once on the court, Trump can shake his tiny, tiny fists in conniption, but there’s fuck-all he can do about it. …
