they can delay until dickface nominates someone who will get approved.




However, that turd from KY, Mitch McConnell, will make sure that whatever obama wants, obama will get.

What happens if there are 8 justices for a time period and a vote comes to a tie? What is the process for dealing with a 4:4 tie on a matter before the supreme court?

edit: "If the Court divides 4-4 the lower court opinion is affirmed without creating any Supreme Court precedent," said Jeffrey Fisher, a professor of law at Stanford University.

They would have to somehow hold out for almost a year.

The Senate MUST obstruct and not confirm his successor.  Let Obama make a recess appointment if he chooses but we can not allow Obama to choose a permanent successor.

Fuck...My condolences to Jus. Scalia's family.

I actually met him at Tommy D's restaurant in New London, CT.

SS guys came in first and asked us if we were carrying, I said yes, and had an escort all night, but was able to meet him and have a polite conversation.

We'll see what happens with the court, doesn't bode well...

Quoted:
U.S. District Judge Fred Biery said he was among those notified about Scalia's death.
"I was told it was this morning," Biery said of Scalia's death. "It happened on a ranch out near Marfa. As far as the details, I think it's pretty vague right now as to how," he said. "My reaction is it's very unfortunate. It's unfortunate with any death, and politically in the presidential cycle we're in, my educated guess is nothing will happen before the next president is elected."

I hope he is correct.

Obama isn't appointing anyone.  No way the Senate confirms in this environment.  Whoever wins in 2016 will end up appointing Scalia's successor.

Otherwise, get ready for your rights to be "substituted" into oblivion.

Rest in peace, Judge Scalia.  You earned it.  One of the few legal vanguards we had remaining.

The administration has someone on standby, will be announced within a few weeks and confirmed after several months. Its a toss up with the senate if they will confirm, some of the obama bots there have been salivating for a moment like this, others who are now questioning the administration might be hesitant.
