On Replacing Justice John Paul Stevens

It is of great importance that the Republican Party take a unified stance on the upcoming nominee.  While we can be certain that the nominee will be Liberal (as opposed to Conservative), it is incumbent on the Republican minority to ensure that the nominee is vetted thoroughly and, if more than center-left, rejected using all 41 of their votes.  President Obama must be reminded that he is not infallible and this time he will have to consider We the People, rather than leftist-socialist ideology, in the nomination.  If he doesn't understand that then his nominee must be rejected out of hand.

We must recognize that had the liberal-progressive-socialists of the Democrat Party listened to We the People during the debate on Obamacare the issues surrounding this nomination would be different.  They would still be vigorous, of course, but different and admittedly bi-partisan.  Obamacare's partisan passage and the preening of Obama, Reid and Pelosi in the aftermath completely changed that.  Now we can and must expect some hard, bare-knuckle fighting as we do not need another "Social Justice" bleeding heart liberal on the Court.  "Bi-partisan" has become a dirty word in the lexicon of We the People.

And if any Republican thinks he can be bi-partisan in the coming debate then he should begin looking for a new job.  We the People will treat him just like Bart Stupak or any of the other Democrat "Yeas" on Obamacare.  Our patience is way too thin for more political games.
