Sessions Vote

[cato potatoe]

I find it surprising that only one Democrat broke ranks on the nomination of a senate colleague who has been nothing but decent and honorable throughout his senate career.  The rest of that pathetic caucus race-baited and slandered the man with a 30-year old letter containing a baseless accusation.  It really is pathetic.

This confirmation process has been a total disgrace.  McConnell had better be ready to treat the Democrats like the children they have become.

[beandog]

He's in big trouble now.  He used the word "denigrating".  When my younger son was in middle school his idiot english teacher gave them a list of words they were not allowed to ever use in her class because she considered them racist.  Really stupid things.  They were not allowed to bring the list home but he snuck it out to show me.  One of the words was denigrate.  I couldn't figure out why until it was pointed out to me that "nig" was in the word.  This was 22 years ago.  I called the school and told the principal about it.  She did nothing.  They have been screwing with our kids for a long time.

Anyway, good luck soon to be AG Sessions.

Excellent speech...thanks for posting.

So they banned Niger and niggardly as well?

Rump should take notes. You can disagree with someone without sounding like a 10 year old.

Indeed it is!  And perfectly illustrative of what we have allowed OUR government to become!

Or you can be a fool for confirming someone whole-heartedly that was a mistake. 

But other Republicans said they would vote for Mr. Holder despite his acknowledged mistakes. Senator Jeff Sessions of Alabama, for example, said he was sure that Mr. Holder would be “a responsible legal officer and not a politician.”   http://www.nytimes.com/2009/02/03/us/politics/03holder.html?_r=0

Let's pray his ability to place good people into office has improved in the last 8 years.  They need it at Justice.

Coming from someone who used "Rump".

You are rich my man.  :blonde:

And you can criticize without using the childish term, 'Rump.'

I was never a big fan of Trump as everyone knows, but I've liked everything he's done so far.

Why is tweeting about Nordstrum and his daughter today? Doesn't he have better shit to do?

[Sighlass]

Sessions... Class act... only fault I have had with him has been his deflection to Trump over Cruz but he did it w/ such class that I find it hard to hold a grudge to full extent.

Jeff is a gentleman that holds his ground with class.

Why is Nordstom boycotting a private citizens product all of a sudden after a long term relationship? Oh yeah. Politics.

It's about time people call this shit out once and for all and the President seems like a fine person to start doing it. Judging by the amount of quality work product coming out of the WH, it does seem he has a few moments to drop Nordstom a quick note.

[Frandia]

I found the part below amusing to say the least.  He's worried about the AG standing up to the president.  Would that be like to the two losers Obama had stand up to him. Hypocrisy thy name is Democrat. (at least in this instance)

"There is simply nothing in Senator Sessions' testimony before the Judiciary Committee that gives me confidence that he would be willing to stand up to the president," said Sen. Pat Leahy, D-Vt. "He has instead demonstrated only blind allegiance."

   It seems that the left rarely breaks ranks.  It is quite disheartening that we have a Congress filled with those that will do for themselves and party first instead of what's right for country.

Yes we're all guilty of not buying more Ivanka stuff at Nordstrom and disappointing King Donald.

I could kiss you, @Frank Cannon !

...in Nordstom's window!!

It's exactly why I suggested yesterday, that the entire GOP House and Senate arrange a group photo outside on the Capitol Building Terrace in show of support for the President.

Whether it's an adversarial media or not, the image of a united GOP is important right now.

Not since George Effing Washington, has a President had so few of his cabinet positions filled by this date.

It's called 'LOYAL' Opposition, not obstructionist opposition, which is what we're seeing.

Thank goodness.

By taking a public political position/statement, it would seem Nordstom automatically alienates 50% of their customer pool.

Just seems to me the typical Leftist Anarchist isn't a Nordstom's shopper.   Probably couldn't even spell it.

Ever considered that Nordstrom's dropped Ivanka because it wasn't selling?


Anyway, I'm not having a debate because it's an idiotic debate for the President to be having.

You're a clown, DCP. Ever considered that Nordstrom's dropped Ivanka because it wasn't selling?
