Remind the Leftwing Liars at the NY Times That it was Biden's Idea to Prevent the President from Appointing a Justice in His Last Year in Office

Then Senator Biden, off course, was trying to prevent a Republican Supreme Court appointment at the time. It is the Senate's BIDEN RULE! m/r

Neil Gorsuch, the Nominee for a Stolen Seat

By THE EDITORIAL BOARD 
It’s been almost a year since Senate Republicans took an empty Supreme Court seat hostage, discarding a constitutional duty that both parties have honored throughout American history and hobbling an entire branch of government for partisan gain.
President Trump had a great opportunity to repair some of that damage by nominating a moderate candidate for the vacancy, which was created when Justice Antonin Scalia died last February. Instead, he chose Neil Gorsuch, a very conservative judge from the federal Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit whose jurisprudence and writing style are often compared to those of Justice Scalia.
If Judge Gorsuch is confirmed, the court will once again have a majority of justices appointed by Republican presidents, as it has for nearly half a century. For starters, that spells big trouble for public-sector labor unions, environmental regulations and women’s access to contraception. If Trump gets the chance to name another justice, the consequences could be much more dire. [for whom?]

DON'T BOTHER WITH MORE OF THIS TRIPE!
