They haven't yet though -- and I wouldn't approve of them doing it either.


Especially if the Reps put up someone like Garland as a gesture of good faith.

I would expect they at least give the president's nominee a hearing and a vote and if the president's a dick and nominates an extremist, exercise their discretion (like they did with Bork).

This 3 year old temper tantrum nonsense just has to go.
