Post by El CastorPost by Josh RosenbluthPost by El CastorPost by Josh RosenbluthBecause of what happened to Garland, the person who wins in November
should nominate the replacement.
Yawn. You lose -- live with it.
In that case, you get to live with court packing if the Democrats take
back the Senate and White House.
Surely you are aware that the Garland excuse is bogus. Biden has come
down on both sides of that last months argument, solely based on which
party was advantaged. And yes, so have Republicans. It's all about
politics.
Correct! So, since McConnell lied when he said Garland wasn't about
politics, court-packing is within the realm of acceptable politics too.
Democrat and Republican politics and lies do not in any way justify
the destruction of the Supreme Court, and with it the Constitution. I
hope you understand that packing the Court is just the beginning of a
process.
Court-packing ought to be a deterrent, not the desired result. But, if
you don't use the deterrent when you promised to, you never have a
deterrent. If the Democrats pack the court, because the republicans have
ignored the threat, hopefully it will jar the Republicans into
negotiating an equitable settlement that does not include court packing.
The president nominates, the senate approves. The President need not
and should not negotiate the Constitution. The Democrat scheme to pack
the court is transparent and despicable.

laws and with it, dismantling of the First Amendment.
We've been over this before. In the case of Westboro Baptist Church,
which protested at military funerals with signs such as "God Hates
Fags," the vote was 8-1 in favor of the church's right to freedom of
speech. The lone dissenter was conservative justice Alito.
Libereral Democrats are drooling at the prospect of hate speech
legislation, and your packed court will be glad to oblige.
He said, as he ignored that Breyer, Sotomayor, Kagan and Ginsburg are
all on record as saying there is no hate speech exception to the First
Amendment.
Of course, but wait! Times are changing. Now we've got the likes of
the Squad practically running your party and ANTIFA rioting in the
streets.

Post by Josh RosenbluthPost by El CastorLook at the
hate speech laws of Canada and Western Europe. Your Party is no
different. What is different is the US Constitution -- which Democrats
would gladly see interpreted into Hell.
