the official new supreme court thread - Very political

[avalon]

Clarence probably thinks he's living large while Harlan throws him some crumbs.

Supreme court justices are so affordable these days.

This is all her fault, the CA Democratic Party’s fault, and Schumer’s fault.

 

[bym051d]

It's a lot of people's fault, but it used to be there were allowances for sick members. If Romney is against having someone vote present, any spirit of bipartisanship is truly dead.

 

[avalon]

shameless.

 

[warak]

fucking republicans..."it's a political hit job"

if it is all true, it's not a hit job it's journalism.

[PhDeac]

Republicans see truth as a hit job.

She's 89 - just retire already.

 

[Les Grossman]

The narcissism it takes to not resign as an 89 year old Senator who has already stated she won’t run for re-election in 18 months when you are not physically able to show up to work is astounding.

 

[PhDeac]

A theory I've heard is that she's mentally incapable of retiring and her staff won't retire on her behalf because they want to keep their jobs.

 

[LilburnDeac]

Would you trust an 89 year old accountant to do your taxes? Or an 89 year old mechanic to fix your car? Or an 89 year old pilot to fly your plane?

I wouldn't. Yet we are allowing an 89 year old to basically bring the US government to a halt.

 

[IamThunderbolt]

But let’s elect an 81 year old president next year!

 

[Biff Tannen]

Lots of AGEISM on these here OGBoards !

For nearly two years beginning in 2015, Supreme Court Justice Neil Gorsuch sought a buyer for a 40-acre tract of property he co-owned in rural Granby, Colo.

Nine days after he was confirmed by the Senate for a lifetime appointment on the Supreme Court, the then-circuit court judge got one: The chief executive of Greenberg Traurig, one of the nation’s biggest law firms with a robust practice before the high court. Gorsuch owned the property with two other individuals.
