Just moments after Antonin Scalia’s untimely death, D.C. was lit aflame with controversy over the nomination of his replacement. Republicans said that a replacement should be appointed by the next President, and the Democrats responded by attacking the GOP’s actions as unconstitutional.
Never one to fall out of step with her party, Elizabeth Warren unsurprisingly sided with her fellow Democrats, going so far as to accuse Republican love for the constitution was nothing more than “empty talk.”
If Warren truly had the grasp of the Constitution she claims she has, she would acknowledge the fact that sending someone to the Supreme Court is a two-branch process, not just the Presidents’.
She may be right, the American people did have a say in the nomination process when they elected Barack Obama to the oval office, but they also had a say when they acknowledged their mistake and sent the President a Republican Senate just two years later.
Somehow, though, she doesn’t seem to agree. See her full statement on the next page:

What’s good for the goose! You nut job… We will sit on it until the next President is in office! The current has overstepped his authority far to many times…
Warren, as usual, you are WRONG!!!!!!!
We weren’t in the condition we’re in now. People actually respected America during those years. Our allies backed us. Now they don’t even trust us. Our enemies feared us. Now, they laugh at us. Our economy is a complete disaster and is getting worse. Neither party has a clear solution but Killary, is NOT a solution.
Libs stating that something is unconstitutional…..good one….the one document they revile, they all of a sudden demand to unhold…what a vile group of stains they all are….
It is his constitutional duty to nominate, but it is the Senate’s duty to approve or disapprove. Contact your senator and make your voice heard, not just on Facebook.
Yup, your “anti-American” position is clear and has been noted. Total FOOL!
yet in 2007 it was ok when the commiecrats were against it…$#%&!@*them
No your unconstitutional
