30. It's the right move at the wrong time.

With a dutiful Congress, it should never be the wrong time to do the right thing. But that's not the case, yet.

It's funny (concidental) that somebody here should mix Scalia's name with Alito's. I was celebrating my birthday in Vegas the day he died with his pillow and I thought it was the best gift. Little did I know it was only the beginning of the nightmare that would become our current Supreme Court. No matter what happens to McTurtle, he can't suffer enough in my opinion.

Anyway, back to our current situation, not only is there no chance of impeachment but the last person we want picking another 1-3 Justices is the Felonious rapist. Can you imagine another 40+ years of this crap?

No, instead we wait. If by some miracle we take both chambers the Democrats can cripple this Administration. Then with a newly elected Administration we take these articles of impeachment and take out at least 3 Justices while simultaneously reconstituting the Court along with new laws with actual accountability and prison sentences. Bribery is a crime not a contribution or free speech.

Don't get angry with the Democrats for not backing this play prematurely. Be angry for not fighting harder for Scalia's replacement. (Too late)

The move would motivate Republicans to fight harder leading up to November at a time they're currently sulking over the loser in office that's screwing everybody over.

Ssshh, don't wake up the flesh eating zombies. Tip toe.
