Read it and weep, Democrats. The shoe is on the other foot. David Bernstein at the Washington Post’s Volokh Conspiracy blog:

Thanks to a VC commenter, I discovered that in August 1960, the Democrat-controlled Senate passed a resolution, S.RES. 334, “Expressing the sense of the Senate that the president should not make recess appointments to the Supreme Court, except to prevent or end a breakdown in the administration of the Court’s business.”

Each of President Eisenhower’s SCOTUS appointments had initially been a recess appointment who was later confirmed by the Senate, and the Democrats were apparently concerned that Ike would try to fill any last-minute vacancy that might arise with a recess appointment.

The GOP opposed this, of course. Hypocrisy goes two ways. But the majority won.

As it should this time.

Update: Don't forget Chuck Schumer

Chuck Schumer In 2007: 'We Should Not Confirm Any Bush Nominee To The Supreme Court'

Yes, it was patriotic then, and heresy now.

Is there anything that the Democrats say that can be believed?

Poor children. Like the tree who gave the lumberman a branch to make a handle for his axe.

Obama could still make a recess appointment, get the results he needs from the Supreme Court this spring, and still be ahead when his nominee's term expires.

Schumer, Leahy and other Democrats now Cry that it is Presidents duty to appoint Supreme Court justices, then acting and lying as though the Senate HAS TO Confirm Them "As Their Duty" or they are "Obstructing".

A bunch of lies from them as no Senator regardless of political party MUST Confirm any one they don't want in the office.

That's why the founders set it up as they did. They foresaw a lawless future President and set it in stone in the Constitution the way it is. Senators DON'T HAVE TO Confirm ANYONE They DONT WANT In The Office! That's the Law of The Land.

Democrats! Stop Lying To The People!

Yes Obama probably will make a recess apt, with the most liberal Judge he can find . And that's the law of the land too.

Whereas the Washington Post editorial page has criticized both Democrats and Republicans over the years for holding up judicial nominees, the Wall Street Journal only criticized Democrats.

By the way, the argument you are making goes both ways; it suggests that Republicans are hypocrites, too.

So mad Obama gonna get to appoint and new justice and change your sad little conservative world. HAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Grasping at straws, or gasping for air?

No wonder you wanted to coronate Hillary as Liar in Chief.

What happens when you take away a Democrat's ability to copy-and-paste, or recite talking points?

Nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

WE CAN STILL CALL YOU NAMES. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

You so right. Posting the same shit attachments.

Those Obama people are just mad.

It's sad.

Everyone knows that liberals are the biggest liars and hypocrites on the planet. They are truly the scum of the earth.

REMINDER: Scalia is fucking DEAD!

Look, the OP clearly doesn't know what a recess appointment is, so lets just ignore anything he has ever said and his trolling threads.

You don't know what a recess appointment is, do you, moron? Here's a hint - this wouldn't be one. And you had to reach back FIFTY-SIX years for this. Moreover, a
'sense of the Senate' resolution carries zero legal weight.

The man has been dead a couple of days and the right wingers have collectively gone batshit crazy. Even Scalia would be horrified by you people.

Actually it could be. Senate is in recess now. It would have to be done by the 22. If not, then he won't have another chance to do it since the Court ruled 9-0 that the Senate can simply hold pro forma sessions every 3 days to block recess appointments.

Dems have gone all spittle-mouthed at the prospect of Obama having no choice but to abide by the Senate's decision. He can stick that 'pen and phone' up his ass. lol
