I am sure the Democrats are already calculating that one. Honestly this mid term is every bit as important to conservatism as the Presidential election. Democrats in the Senate have already made an art form out of obstruction. They get a strong hold in the House or Senate and those clowns will do all they can to shut down democracy.crazy2medic wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:24 pm As long as who ever is picked is a Staunch Constitutionalist I'm good with it!
Now if RBG will be so kind as to make a vacancy by whatever means, that would truly be historic and will be the death of the liberal agenda!

Re: ANTHONY KENNEDY IS RETIRING!
I was thinking that nominating a woman would really cause a tantrum. I know it's early to speculate on who's on the list but Fox News has a list and these 2 caught my eye. Mainly cause they were clerks for Scalia.TreyHouston wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:10 pmNope, put him/her through now. I bet Trump will pick a woman. Really put them on the spot!03Lightningrocks wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:04 pm Now the Democrats are saying the selection should be put on hold. The very same ones who said it should not be for president election. But somehow a mid term congressional race is reason to hold? Unreal!

Joan Larsen
Larsen, who serves as a Circuit Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, is a former justice of the Michigan Supreme Court. She is also a former law clerk to Scalia and delivered one of the tributes to the late justice at his memorial service.
Amy Coney Barrett
Barrett is a Judge of the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit. Prior to her appointment in 2017, Barrett was the Diane and M.O. Miller, II Research Chair in Law and Professor of Law at Notre Dame Law School. Barrett also served as a law clerk to former Justice Antonin Scalia on the Supreme Court.
In certain extreme situations, the law is inadequate. In order to shame its inadequacy, it is necessary to act outside the law to pursue a natural justice.

Re: ANTHONY KENNEDY IS RETIRING!
I was honestly not talking about her dying. I was talking about having the mental capacity and capability to preform the job. Or she just wants to leave after Trump gets reelected!bblhd672 wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:37 pmToday is my mother's 95th birthday, so you never know.WTR wrote: ↑Wed Jun 27, 2018 4:21 pmMy Mom and my MIL are both 87.

Re: ANTHONY KENNEDY IS RETIRING!
I would like to see a real constitutionalist added to the SC like TED CRUZ, the senate would confirm him in a heart beat just to get him off their hinies.

Re: ANTHONY KENNEDY IS RETIRING!
The winning is awesome!!!
Imagine for a moment if Hillary had won.
We walked up to the edge of the cliff and took two steps back 18 months ago.
Imagine our world today with 6 liberals on the SCOTUS.
God has blessed America again.
