Four years ago the Republicans in Congress attested with one accord that there was altogether wrong to select a new Supreme Court justice with an election only six months away. They felt this so strongly that their swineherd, Mr. McConnell would allow Obama’s nominee no hearing at all. [Mitch is an oath-keeper, at least of the oath sworn by Republicans seven years earlier never to cooperate with Pres. Obama.]
But what a difference four years make. Now the national interest, state security, the economy, and all else that is sacred require immediate replacement of Justice Ginsberg. Hence my question: Were the Republicans lying four years in their principled opposition to selection of a Supreme Court justice so close to a coming election? Or are they lying now when they demand nomination and confirmation of a new justice with the election 1.5 months away.
This question really does not require an answer because they lie all the time. They nominated and have blindly supported a compulsive liar because like seeks like.
