 Dem Who Lied About Vietnam Service Calls for Extreme Vetting of Gorsuch
Posted By Bill McMorris On February 8, 2017 @ 1:56 pm In Politics | No Comments

A Democratic senator who lied about his military service for decades is now calling on his colleagues to thoroughly vet the background of President Donald Trump's Supreme Court nominee.

Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D., Conn.), a member of the Senate committee that handles legal confirmation hearings, said that Appellate Court Judge Neil Gorsuch will face tough questions about his background. He said the Colorado-based judge will have "every aspect of his background" investigated by Democratic committee members before his nomination to the nation's highest court moves forward.

"It is important that every aspect of his background be critically and closely scrutinized," Blumenthal told the Wall Street Journal.

He should just relax, now that Gorsuch has criticized Trump the pro-Trump snowflakes will tear him down.


Were I a Dem I'd sit back, relax, and tuck into a Filet O Fish sandwich.

So, you are advising Dems to not do what you just did and let the Rs, such as yourself, attack other Rs?

Smart guy, Mr. Blumenthal.

This was reported as being at Milford, Connecticut, although I think the actual location may have been at Stratford.
They're standing on the westbound side, track 3.

Ran by that platform hundreds (thousands?) of times in my career.

Blumenthal is on the right.
Stand a little closer!

Worse, I think Trump will turn on Gorsuch once he gets wind of this. Hopefully he's smarter than that.

There are a couple things I like that smell like fish. Unfortunately one of them is not a sniveling whiner.

"You're", not "your".


I see you whine every thread about all the supposed "leftists" here. You're joining Mesaclone's "dem plants" manhunt, apparently, overturning every stone and nook and cranny for "dems".


You also whine about news sources, etc.


You do plenty of whining.
