Actor James Woods offered an elegant piece of advice to Republican senators when President Obamanominates Supreme Court appointees to replace the late Justice Antonin Scalia — just turn the president’s own tactics around on him.


This could not be simpler: absolutely do not confirm an #ObamaSCOTUS nominee. Don't discuss it; just ignore him, as he does the law.

In contrast to Warren’s argument now, then-Senator Obama categorically rejected the argument that the nomination debate ended when President Bush “ won the election.” During Alito’s confirmation hearings, Obama took the senate floor to say: “There are some who believe that the President, having won the election, should have complete authority to appoint his nominee…that once you get beyond intellect and personal character, there should be no further question as to whether the judge should be confirmed. I disagree with this view.”
