Since the recent, unexpected
passing of conservative Supreme
Court Justice Antonin Scalia, Republican presidential
candidates, Republican congressional lawmakers(???) and FOXifiers are clamoring to denounce
President Obama’s constitutional responsibility to nominate Justice
Scalia’s replacement on the Supreme Court!
Republican
Senate Majority leader Mitch McConnell - who, announced and continues to lead unprecedented Republican obstructionism following his unsuccessful pledge to make Obama a one term President - already ruled
out his constitutional
responsibility to allow a presidential nominee to come to the floor of the
US Senate for a vote!?!?
The central unconstitutional argument put forth by Republicans who falsely claim to uphold the Constitution is that President Obama should let
the American people decide who will be the President to nominate Justice
Scalia’s replacement via the 2016 General Election.
Earth to FOXifiers, and Republican presidential candidates, congressional lawmakers -
The American people, already, elected a President to
nominate Scalia’s replacement - TWICE!
It’s, also, important to
note that our current, Supreme Court is, the most
conservative Supreme Court in decades handing down activists decisions that…
- Eviscerated the Voting Rights Act
- Turned corporate treasuries into campaign slush funds for CEO’s
- Demolished campaign finance laws
- Aided and abetted pay discrimination
- Made it harder for consumers and workers to file class action lawsuits against corporations that have cheated them
- Blocked the Environmental Protection Agency’s regulatory ability to limit power plant mercury emissions and other toxic pollutants that poison American infants, children, teens, adults and senior citizens.
Tell Republican congressional lawmakers(???) to uphold their Constitutional responsibility to vote on a replacement for
the Supreme Court!
