A lot of people have
brought up the fact that they won't vote for Trump if he's the eventual
nominee. Let’s put the Supreme Court in perspective.
Justice Scalia's seat is
vacant. Ginsberg is 82 years old, Kennedy is 79, Breyer is 77, and Thomas is 67.
Nowadays, the data shows that the average age of a Supreme Court retirement or
death occurs after 75.
These are 5 vacancies that
will likely come up over the next 4-8 years. The next President will have the
power to potentially create a 7-2 Supreme Court skewed in their ideology.
Think about that... 7-2. If
the next President appoints 5 young justices, it will guarantee control of the
Supreme Court for an entire generation. And 7-2 decisions will hold up much
more over time than 5-4 decisions which are seemed to be lacking in mandate.
Killary Clinton has
made it clear she will use the Supreme Court to go after the 2nd Amendment. She
has literally said that the Supreme Court was wrong in its Heller decision
stating that the Court should overturn and remove the individual right to keep
and bear arms. Period. But this is not only about the Second Amendment,
it is about everything that involves conservative issues.
Everyone saying that
they won't vote for one candidate or the other if they are the GOP nominee,
please realize this. If Killary Clinton wins and gets to make these
appointments, you likely will never see another Conservative victory at the
Supreme Court level for the rest of your life. Ever.
If you are a Conservative or
Libertarian, a vote for anyone but the GOP nominee (or even no vote at
all), whomever that will be, is a vote for Hillary Clinton.
I sure hope Mitch McConnell lives up to
this promise, “There is not a snowball’s chance in hell that we will confirm
President Obama’s appointment to the Supreme Court.” There is no way a SCOTUS
nominee should be confirmed until after the 2016 presidential election. Period.
Join me in praying that McConnell and the Senate will not cave on this.
Read on. TJ
By
President Barack
Obama’s choice for the vacant seat on the Supreme Court was presented as a
moderate that could have bipartisan appeal, but Merrick Garland has
previously disclosed in official documents that he has offered his
services to numerous Democratic presidential candidates.
Buried in a questionnaire Garland submitted to the Senate
Judiciary Committee in 1995 is his disclosure of volunteer work for Democratic
politicians that stretched from his years as a college student up
to Bill Clinton’s presidential campaign in 1992.
“I provided
volunteer assistance on a Presidential Debate for President Clinton in October
1992 and for Michael Dukakis in October 1988,” Garland wrote in response to a
question on his previous political involvement. “I did some volunteer work for
Walter Mondale’s presidential campaign in 1983-84. As a college student, I
worked two summers for the campaign of my then-congressman, Abner Mikva, in
1972 and 1974.”
Garland was not a regular volunteer when he offered his services to
Democratic presidential campaigns.
Garland’s work for Mondale, Dukakis, and Clinton all came after his
graduation from Harvard Law School, once he had begun his professional legal
career…
Go to the 5:23 mark on the video below for the story on Merrick Garland and his work on the OKC bombing. It seems after 25 years he got his Democratic party reward.
