The documents were already cleared and the Library Representative had already spoken to Senator Bookers staff and told them they could use that.

Personal i think it would be funny having a Future Presidential candidate hang themselves on something like this but it appears there was no risk and the documents were okayed by the Library to be used.
Why did the Democrats lie? How is lying about this fighting back?

Today's best from the floor. A protester (paid?) has been ,,,,,,,,,,,sold.

^ That was a pretty funny WTF moment.
RE: SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES - Fry Guy - 09-06-2018
I think Corey Booker manspreads like there is no tomorrow, you think so too?

I'm not a fan of Cory Booker.
He's a grandstander who almost always turns the focus of topical discussion to himself and his grievances. Plus, he gets all wound up and can't move on much of the time, like a broken record.
He's got nothing on you in those regards though, FryGuy.
RE: SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES - Fry Guy - 09-07-2018
But his worst fault is that he is a manspreader...am i right?
Whilst you are right about these shortcomings. I would have thought his identity politicking would have you salivating. He comes from the very Progressive slime pit from which terms like Mansplaining, Manspreading, Manslamming, Broppriations and Manteruptions come from.
Somewhat surprising you arent a fan. Then again he IS a male and so has that whole Patriarchy thing going against him right?

I think those are some of the things that are going to prevent him from going any higher on the political ladder.
I saw a tiny bit of Chris Hayes interviewing him last night and I spent the whole time cringing. Just answer the fucking questions and stop with the spin, goddamn that shit is annoying.

Is Justice really Blind?

No, justice isn't blind and anyone who pays attention should know that. There are black & brown people moldering in prison for having some weed while 2 white guys do it on camera for all the world to see. They won't pay a price for that, but they would if they were black.

You obviously spend a lot of time in slime pits FryGuy. I don't and thus wasn't familiar with any of the idiotic terms you referenced above before you started tossing them out in nearly every post.
'Mansplain' is just a funny term that I learned about from the Oxford dictionary. http://mockforums.net/thread-11385.html?highlight=word+up I've used the term in relation to two people since.
First while fucking around with Donovan, who is too confident to spaz out or become obsessed over something like that at Mock. Then, with you, because some of your posts actually fit the definition of mansplaining like a glove.
Anyway, alleged mansplaining isn't exactly a capital crime, but one would sure think it was, based on how you've let it consume you. Dragging your chip around to nearly every discussion and insisting that I must have a bias against all men (lest I would never have characterized some of YOUR posts as 'mansplaining') is some boring defensive bullshit. I'm just gonna skip around it from here on out.

So by your own words is that justice ? Or just racist?

It really is annoying. To me, he seems more concerned about his image than the issues about which he's speaking most of the time.
I think Kamala Harris is very good though. While I don't agree with some of her positions, she's always been focused, passionate and on-point when I've heard or read her interviews. She's a smart ex-prosecutor.
She's more likely to reach higher office than Cory Booker, in my opinion.
RE: SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES - Fry Guy - 09-07-2018
Kamala Harris is a dickhead. BUT she is the best the Democrats have to offer. Seriously Going into the Preidential Elections, who are the alternatives.
If she thinks this shit won't hurt her

and
https://madworldnews.com/kamala-harris-sex-jeff-sessions/
Yes, yes, I am sure that Kamala is the best the Democrats have to offer and I say this as a Liberal.
Come on now Fry Guy! You are obviously being sarcastic. You are not REALLY a Liberal and nor are you thinking there is any other Liberal that you can put into contention, so why are you pretending this obviously BS impartiality.
Because the truth is I am embarrassed.
Year ago the Mainstream Liberal consensus was a stone's throw from me. I am a Liberal but close to the centre. Over the years I have seen the Left go further and further Left.
So who on the right do I like or believe have good opinions? PLENTY! But on the Left? That is SO much harder. When they lie or state intellectually dishonest positions I lose faith in them. I do not give a fuck if I disagree with your position. Be honest, make a compelling case, be forthright and sow sincerity and conviction.
So the same question. I ONLY have two in the Democratic party and neither will get the notoriety they deserve.
1. Tammy Duckworth
2. Nina Turner

I wonder ho will be the nominee for Ruth Bader's post in the Supreme court. She is going downhill as fast as Pelosi on ski's.

Do you know something I don't know? I haven't heard she is in poor health.
RE: SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES - Duchess - 09-15-2018
I went looking for information on her thinking that she may be ill but all I could find was her recently saying the Kavanaugh confirmation hearings are "highly partisan". Is that what made you say something negative about her?

She seems in very good health at age 85.
RBG recently hired additional law clerks and said she believes she'll stay on the court until she's 90, like her predecessor Justice John Paul Stevens.
I admire her a lot and hope she's got five more years on the court ahead of her.
RE: SUPREME COURT: JUSTICE SCALIA DEATH AND SCOTUS CHANGES - Duchess - 09-15-2018
RBG is a rock star! I like everything about her.

She has suffered with Colon Cancer. She is not as frail as she looks and has a ferocious exercise regime for an 85 year old. But Cancer has a way of coming back and at 85 she has had a good run already. I think if Cancer returns, it will be the end of a very successful life.
