4. Of course they wouldn't have

SHe's not a rw activist judge.

Talk about stating the obvious.

Elections have consequences. Republicans lost and don't get to pick. That's the way it works.

6. Hey Lindsay you don't get to pick.

The winner of the election called Barack Obama gets to do that.

21. Exactly what I was wondering

A Republican DID pick her for a court seat, not for SCOTUS but he still obviously thought her qualified for a seat on the federal courts, as did, I believe, Bill Clinton- so it's not just a partisan appointment by President Obama.

10. Hey Lindsey, nobody cares!

Republicans lost, get use to the idea and deal with it. You guys are a super minority in the senate because people were sick of you and your ilk.
