What's this?

Really? Well a corporate SCOTUS most certainly won't have their backs.

There is a lot of education for the Dems to do here for sure, but I can't see where Gorsuch has answered any questions I care about with regard to his judicial philosophy on corporate "rights" or campaign finance restrictions. He has evaded those. Meanwhile the D's are seeming to waste a lot of time on Roe v. Wade. Wasted opportunity, IMO.

Of course it will. But that doesn't make McConnell's logic any more sound. ** -- VAGentleman05 03/21/2017 10:13PM

But at least Bruce recognizes how embarrassing all of this is. ;-) ** -- VAGentleman05 03/21/2017 10:16PM
