[QUOTE]Originally posted by Gilbert B Norman: [QB] I would urge all here, regardless of their own standing on this issue of whether President Obama should be prepared to have the Senate defer on their Constitutional duty to advise and consent on a SCOTUS nomimee, to read this provocative column appearing in Today's Times: http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/03/22/us/politics/john-roberts-criticized-supreme-court-confirmation-process-before-there-was-a-vacancy.html Fair Use: [i][list] [*]Last month, Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. delivered some blunt remarks about the Supreme Court confirmation process. The Senate should ensure that nominees are qualified, he said, and leave politics out of it. The chief justice spoke 10 days before Justice Antonin Scalia died, and he could not have known how timely and telling his comments would turn out to be. They now amount to a stern, if abstract, rebuke to the Republican senators who refuse to hold hearings on President Obama’s nominee, Judge Merrick B. Garland.[/i] [/list] If the CJSCOTUS has issues with timely confirmation hearings, then I think rational minded VOTERS should have same. [/QB][/QUOTE]
