I post whaty Ithink. This has nothing to do with the fact that Republicans have poacked the Supreme Court.. Most of your post is intellctually lacking in try7th and ourpose. And, speaking of weak aqttempts at thought ccontrol. I am not about to let you tell m what I can and cannot post. "New American/world wide thought contyrol: What in the hell is that?????You use a lot of loaded juck prhases. That is a fact.

@wordywalt There is no standard that allows you to use the phrase "Republicans "poacked" the Supreme court.

Our Constitution says Presidents nominate, the Senate confirms. That is exactly what happened. Yes a Republican Sentate would not consider Obama's nominee, but as Obama said "elections have consequences".

As you probably know many Democrats want to expand the Court to obtain a Liberal majority. That would be packing.

@Alienbeing You ignore he blocking actyions of McConnel to deny Dempcratic appointees, and the rushing of Republican candidates through without an adequate vetting.

@wordywalt I'm not ignoring that at all. What you cite is merely another example that elections have consequences.

Republicans are currently suffering because election have consequences.

Perhaps some day we will learn to elect people based on qualifications and not party affiliation.

@wordywalt ....i'll wait for you to sober up, we can talk then

Call me daft, but I was not aware of taboos on such discussions.

@holdenc98 That is just the kind incivility that I was talking about.

@wordywalt .................re read what you wrote. would you conclude you were drunk?

@holdenc98 No.

@wordywalt .. well... differences of opinion. thats what makes a horse race. have a good day, sir.

Perhaps it might be better to fight fire with water? Or even better, removing the oxygen?

@p-nullifidian Usually, but not all the time.

Truth can be expressed in a civil manner or not. That is part of what this post is about to me. Two sides, one the person making the statement, the other is the interpretation.
