Speech, in my book majority government, means the majority have the ability to govern, this hybrid system you have blurrs the issues and seems designed to prevent anyone from governing, thus chaos. It is hard to determine which majority anyone is talking about, the majority who elected the president, the majority of representatives, the senate majority or the silent majority who must watch the circus with dispair

we rightly distrust absolute rule by the majority .

It shouldn't be that hard to give judicial nominees a vote to fill vacant seats.

That's what we said in the Bush years when you were protesting the idea of the nuclear option which Republicans did not invoke.

there were many qualified judges in the Bush term who were denied placing ,including in the DC Circus. Remember Miguel Estrada, who ultimately withdrew his nomination ? Janice Rogers Brown who was only seated after the gang of 14 ?
Wiki's got the complete list of district court judges ,some of whom were blocked through the end of Bush's term ,and the seat was ultimately filled by the emperor's nominess.
George W. Bush judicial appointment controversies - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

no hangin judges then eh?

Those unions are certainly doing some good work. They're fighting for a $10,000 severance buyout for a teacher convicted of raping a student over a 3 year period.

Yep, and no one seems to want to talk about it. I guess they couldn't find any way to blame the Tea Party.

Ace of Spades HQ

All the TParty cares about is their rights to bear arms and safety of our kids is a distant second, if that high.

With the last shooting, I am on board for armed guards outside every school, since no other solution can be found that's acceptable to keep guns out of the hands of troubled kids and homicidal loony's.

Knew you would come around . Can you imagine the outcry if the latest shooter had been a TP instead of a guy who's big issue was wealth redistribution.

So you advocate student searches by armed guards, because that's what it will take to keep weapons out of schools. That race of hooligans you have raised over there will not submit unless forced. it would be a lot easier to make weapons less available by removing certain classes of weapons from general sale

Reality says there will be no legislation to ban a peashooter,r nor do something about loony's getting gun, be they rich, or TP, no matter how many children die! And its obvious rich kids will never be held to the same standards of the law as any other kid with no money.

What's left? Doing nothing shouldn't be the option.

Still going with the myth, eh. I repeat:

The Tweetable Guide To Media Myths And Left-wing Violence

Gun violence is a left wing myth? Tell that to the families of the victims. What's your solution? I am not interested in your excuses to do nothing. That's obviously not working, or saving lives.

I might be a myth but this Tweetable Guide is perpetuating its own type of mythology:

"An environmentalist who hates humans". "A registered Democrat". " An Obama voter"

What are those type of tweets suppose to demonstrate?

That the echo chamber is alive and well.

Everybody has one, and uses it for whatever pet idea, or ideal. Some echo louder and longer than others.

So bang! bang! and gun violence and gun control is in the news and the clamour continues to the deaf ears of the politicians sucking on the NRA teat. it is clear you need someone who rules by decree then what needs to be done could get done, stop the crap that it's undemocratic and you are living in a democracy, it isn't and you arn't, what you got is minority rules

Apparently you've bought into the myth as well.

No just listen to the news and you get the picture, at least the picture someone wants to paint, still it's news and it beats plant closures and bigger budget deficits, I suppose
