    I don't think most people are qualified to determine which judges are qualified to be Supreme Court Justices.  What I do object to is that these are lifetime appointments.  There should be term limits.

    Hello B:

    Yes, but it takes 60 votes in the Senate to confirm a judge, and the Republicans come up short.  LIKE the Republicans, the Dems COULD block 'em ALL.  But, I'm betting they LOVE the Constitution MORE than right wingers do..  Oh, right wingers SAY they love the Constitution, but they DON'T.. 

    When they REFUSED to hold hearings on Obama's appointment, they said the "people" should decide..  That meant the NEXT president...  Okee doakee.  If it was good enough for the Republicans, then it should be good enough for the Democrats..  The NEXT president should decide..
