The courts don’t make law. They can only rule on existing law. If the conservatives have the courts, that is just one of many checks and balances.
Throwing a fit doesn’t change that.

Since that was the rest of your statement and I am not the only person who thinks you are full of shit on that point.
Many arguments exist in draft form, that is why political parties tend to go judge shopping in deciding where to pursue cases.
And dodge away. Meanwhile, your fellow democratic socialists take a whole different POV- nationwide access to free abortion-

Kavanaugh is done. Avenetti is
I am hearing this often, so it must be the new talking point. Those appointments didn’t change the balance of the court. Kavanaugh arguably would, hence the need to smear him. The same could be said for Bork, which is how we ended up with Kennedy in the first place. This is all about power and control.
We need to eliminate life time appointments to the court and there needs to be a standard vetting process for all candidates.
"New talking point" or using common sense?
You think Dems just "let that one go" with Gorsuch?
So many Ds voted against him that McConnell was forced to end the filabuster.
If there was any rapey allegations in Gorsuch's past Ds would have gleefully torn him to shreds.
They didn't find any. I'm sure they looked hard for anything and came up with nothing significant. No one is "inventing" stuff or recruiting martyrs to perform public humiliation by telling deliberate lies.
Not seating Garland started the war, but it's not total war...yet. Pulling Kav-bro and nominating Garland would, but we know that won't happen. In the meantime Rs will be opposed
Rs need to wake up from their delusions about this guy.

Wut is there to wut about? Are you oblivious to the fact that the purpose of the JUDICIAL branch is JUDGE the interpretation of the laws... and not make them? Or do you need to go back to 3rd grade history class?
Yeah, I tried to explain it to him. Didn't go very well.
I'm pretty sure the statue of limitations is up on everything that has come out so far.Bring him to a vote! Make Collins pay the price!
This nomination is perfect. You couldn't ask for the GOP to pick a worse nominee. Even if he gets put on the court, we can always impeach him later when he's indicted for all these counts of rape. It might actually be better for the democrats if they nominate him because we can replace him later with whomever we want after we take both houses.
"lifetime appointment" doesn't preclude prosecution.

R voters need to wake up from their delusions that voting R benefits anybody but the Rich inclusive of televangelists.
They've been promising the supreme court to their base the entire time. It's their fallback whenever the impulsive idiot president acts like an impulsive idiot. I honestly think they'll try to slam him through unless it becomes literally impossible. They've promised it to their base too often to stop now, and the nomination failing will look like a bitter betrayal to their base.Avenatti says his client will go public in the next 48 hours. So team Kavnaugh appears destined for another round of hideous press.
Got to wonder at what point the leadership, without the votes in it's pocket, decides to cut bait in the name of preserving the Senate majority.
TBH I don't trust Avenatti. If he overhypes his client's claims, it might do more harm than good.

In light of recent things - I've been contemplating voting left this year - and likely in 2020.
But you know what turns me off the most? Everytime one of your stupid fucktard candidates says the word "free". Saying that alone is a damnation to your own voters hoping that they are too incompetent to understand that nothing is free in life.
There is no free healthcare, there is no free abortion, there is no free college. It doesn't exist - and more importantly - it CANNOT exist. Try treating your voters with a higher IQ than a pencil and you might have better luck in elections.
