A lot of people are mentioning in articles and talk programs that Reagans nomination of Robert Bork was never confirmed. As if that case has any thing similar with Obama's nomination of Garland. Most people think it's the time line there comparing of both nominations. (not even close folks)
I think Professor etucker needs to give a little history!!! lol
We all know the Watergate scandal was a huge black eye on President Nixon Presidency. (it caused him to resign as President for it) Robert Bork played a big part in helping President Nixon's effort in trying to sweep it all under the rug. Was President Nixon successful in sweeping it under the rug???? Helll No!!!!!!! The people who then tried to aid him were forever Black Balled for their efforts. Well what did Robert Bork do???????? I'll tell you!!!!! Robert Bork was an Assistant Attorney General for the Federal government during the Nixon administration. When the Watergate scandal first broke out, Congress called out for a special prosecutor to investigate the Watergate scandal. Nixon then ordered the Attorney General to fire the special prosecutor Congress requested. The Attorney General refused President Nixon orders and thus was fired by Nixon. He then was replaced by the first Assistant Attorney General. President Nixon then ordered him to fire the special prosecutor and he also refused to do that. Guess what President Nixon did to him???? Fired him too!!!!!
Can you guess where this story is leading?????
Along comes Robert Bork who was an Assistant Attorney General and now made the Attorney General. President Nixon then orders Robert Bork to fire the special prosecutor Congress ordered to come into existence. Can you guess what Robert Bork did?????? He took one look at Nixon and said, "YES SIR!!!!" and fired the special prosecutor. Congress then just circumvented everybody and got their special prosecutor and the rest is history!!!! Now a few years pass and it's now President Reagans turn to nominate a Supreme Court justice and he nominates Robert Bork. Now the Senate has a long memory. This is the same Robert Bork who aided President Nixon feeble attempt to cover up the Watergate scandal. They took one look at him and said, "NO WAY JOSE" and never confirmed him. So Obama's choice of Garland who is so squeaky clean compared to Bork, shouldn't even be compared by the same light but it is!!!!
That concludes our history lesson of today!!!! lol

I am going to go on record as saying yes I am a BIG Obama supporter. For 2 big reasons.
1. Does anybody think any candidate from either party who's running in 2016 for President is a good as Obama?????? If so PLEASE name them!!!!
2. Number two is a selfish reason. I love my Obama Care!!!!!!!!!! I'm 56 and starting to feel my age, so I'm starting to go to the doctor more now. I've gone to the doctor more times in the last 2 years then I did in the last 40 years combined!!! All thanks to Obama Care!!!!!
