I could care less if a black woman is on SCOTUS. of course I could also care less if a bunch more old crusty white guys are there. They make like a half dozen rulings each year that have no effect on my life.

Thanks for avoiding every single question.

Made a NYD resolution to do just that on this board's political discussion(s)! Thanks for noticing.

Wasn't this thread about the 500M womens' relay? How did we get on the S Court nomination anyway?

Then stay out of the threads if you don’t want to have legit discourse and would rather troll.

And, at some point, the issue of a biological male competing against biological women may make its way to the SC. Now We know where she stands on that and child porn/pedo issues.

Things that may be of some importance going forward. But obviously it should just be swept aside since “she’s going to be confirmed anyway”. 🙄

Legit discourse? On this board? That would be a refreshing change.

But over a beer in person sometime, wouldn't mind at all.
 
Well, good old Manchin came out in favor of this left wing loon for the Supreme Court.
He plays some GOP like a fiddle. I bet 95% of West Virginians don't care for this left wing loon but Joe is solid in his approval and support.

If you follow his career he does this over and over. I had zero faith he would do the right thing.

her nomination has to get out of the senate judiciary committee before the full Senate votes on it, and he isn't on the committee. The committee is evenly split at this time.

Do we know, yet, what happens, if the committee vote is tied?

There has been a lot of speculation, but I’m not sure that anyone has told us exactly what happens in that case.
 
A tie vote in the judiciary committee just means that there would have to be a motion in the Senate to discharge the nominee from committee. And the Dems have the votes in the Senate to win that motion and bring the nominee up to vote by the Senate.

And it’s still a 50+1 at that point, or does it require 60?

Imagine living in 2022 and being upset about gay people getting married.

I can only reach two conclusions:

Religion is a cult based on a stupid myth
Deeply rooted homophobia is still alive and well and is a few generations away from dying out.

I’d like to hear one reasonable argument against gay marriage that doesn’t involve sky daddies, invisible space faries or ancient novels.

The “can’t reproduce” argument is horse shit for many reasons, mainly because we can’t care for all the children alive now. Maybe quit humping for a bit or shoot it on her face or something. Secondly gays can adopt (in states where religious prudes don’t create bigoted legislation to force us all to live by their favorite book). Adoption is that thing the pro-lifers always talk about but rarely do as evidenced by an overrun foster care system.

You love your judgmental proclamations.

He’s right. Why do some of y’all care so much about what others do in their private lives? Does a gay person getting married affect your life in any meaningful way? No.

I live my life by my rules and don’t care at all about what you do in your home as long as all parties are consenting and are of legal age.
 
Bobby Bowden retired at 80 and JoePa was 85, neither guy could really remember player's names at the end and were just figureheads as they were so old. Sounds similar to the oval office.

That was just college football. This is legit world issues that matter. RBG was the same way. That woman wasn't there in the end either and her proxies were writing her shit. By no means, should someone this old be in a position of leadership.
 
The school choice issue is very important to me. It's amazing how the left claims to be pro choice but that's really only in regard to abortion because when it comes to everything else, they try to force their bullshit on you- mask, shot, your school, your taxes to fund their BS, etc.

Kids should not be locked into garbage schools because of imaginary lines. Oh, and public schools have never been hurting for funding. We have thrown so much money at it and it never does anything. But the admins making six figures sure love it.
