Some news for you, @senatemajldr #MoscowMitchTraitor: On 2/12/1829, hearings on JQA's nominee submitted on 12/17/1828 was postponed because ("b/c") it was post-election ("PE"). On 6/17/1844, no action ("NA") was taken on Tyler's nominee; on 2/06 & 2/08/1845, Tyler withdrew two
nominees b/c they were PE; & on 2/07/1845, NA was taken on his nominee. NA was taken on Fillmore's 8/16/1852 nominee; his 1/03 & 2/14/1853 nominees were withdrawn on 2/14/1853 b/c they were PE. On 2/21/1861, NA was taken on Buchanan's 2/05/1861 nominee b/c it was PE. NA was taken
on RBH's 1/26/1881 nominee b/c it was PE. Obama's 3/16/2016 nominee was refused consideration -- the FIRST in history, and there were 8 mos before the election and 11 mos left in Obama's term when Justice Scalia died. YOU set the precedent; now follow it!! You will be remembered
negatively for every dirty thing you've done these past 12 years, w/this be'g the dirtiest. The ONLY reason Obama got fewer judges confirmed dur'g his terms was because you refused to act legally on those, too, leav'g more for the dirty-deeds Repubs 2 confirm under a Repub POTUS!
