So you live in a leaning red state and I live in the deepest blue one in the union. Hence the difference.
Quote:Two. The same argument they used to block Obama's nominee went out the window when they forced through the least qualified supreme court nominee since Clarence Thomas in a fraction of the time that was their reason for denying Obama because there wasn't enough time.
No, sorry, it doesn't work that way. For you to be outraged about McConnell denying Garland his seat you have to disagree with his argument for doing so. If you do, which you do, then you have to, merely by dint of logical consistency, have to agree that appointing Barrett when RBG died was the correct and proper way to do things. You can't have it both ways. You can't say he was wrong one time and wrong the other, they are mutually exclusive options. Well, I should say you absolutely can, as long as you don't mind being a complete hypocrite, just like Mitch. Hence, based solely on logic, the accusation of a "stolen seat" can only encompass one position, not two.
