Anyone that thinks this country should be ran by public opinion missed the GD point of the Bill of Rights and the rest of that GD piece of paper called the US constitution.

Again you missed my point. Polls are used to make opinions and sway people, they are no longer used as a highwater mark.

I agree with you, on what your saying... But that wasn't my point about the poll or the use of polling.

a reply to: CrawlingChaos

Nope.

No persons opinion is more important than someone elses.

The basic foundation in a GD Republic.

Polls are nothing more than propaganda.

Only thing that has changed for me is that as a registered Independent voter I can say for sure I don't support the democrats currently.

oh will that be taken into consideration when the senate votes?

No. Besides, Reuters still hasn't regained its good reputation, after screwing up the 2016 election prediction so badly.

That's not what i'm saying.

That's what I was saying.....Or atleast trying to...

a reply to: CrawlingChaos

It is what I am saying.

Well that is for those that do understand what the word equality means.

I think there's some kind of miscommunication going on here.
Anyways have a nice day.

36% opposition means he will be confirmed with 60+ votes.

I though we were talking about 36% of the public not 36% of the Senate.

I think we all know the legislators don't do the bidding of the people.

oh really
tax cuts
2 scotus noms

seems they are doing exactly what they were elected to

too bad they didnt get to health care or the wall

We're talking about the SCOTUS nomination right in this thread, and the people don't support it.

How can you use that as an example of legislators doing the will of the people?

CORRECTION: %36 of people polled, don't support it....

That's %31 of people polled who do support and %33 of people polled undecided. Stop saying "The People" or any other indication of a whole group of all citizens. It's intellectually dishonest.

Leftist aren't capable of honesty of any kind.

Polls don't really mean anything, it's who paid for the polls. As for the polls themselves, I've never made a decision on poll numbers. If I did we'd have (shudder) hilary in office.

a reply to: Kharron

LoL, whats that, a poll?

I thought the senate was representing the public.

silly me

That’s because, only some of us know, and it seems to grow smaller by the day, that we live in a republic which is the rule of law. Not mob rule. So a political aquisation mob rule shouldn’t move the needle.

a reply to: howtonhawky

As another posted said. The poll was voters. The Senate will vote along party lines with maybe a few exceptions. Things would be different if everything went by polls. Hillary would be president today.

a reply to: toms54

No it will be 60+ conformation.

I don't really give a good goddamn about Kavanaugh, I'm just calling malarkey on how he is being unfairly treated in the confirmation process. And I know there are still thinking people on the far left that feel the same way. The worrying thing to me with this whole ordeal is that the illiberal left are going to mess around and we're all going to end up getting a judge that is truly far right of Kavanaugh who will actually challenge Roe v. Wade and deleterious actions.

This is what happens when we are led around by the ideologically blind on the right and left. They don't end up seeing the massive monster truck in their blind spot when they are attempting to change lanes. Unfortunate circumstances often are a result.

I will keep saying ad nauseam until it sinks into everyone's skulls - the new illiberal left and the old religious right are the same beast. They're just playing a game of musical chairs that switches around the players into different positions, but it is still very much the same game.

Go figure None of them care about any of us .

a reply to: sooth

What do you expect them to do? A person claims the nominee tried to rape her

What do you want them to do ignore her?

36% of Americans are now opposed to the Kavanaugh nomination. It may not seem like a large number, but it now outweighs the support for the nomination at 31%. 

So liberals dont like Kavanaugh and conservatives do? ... wheres the news?

Oh the middle is dithering, that's the news? Im surprised more people in the middle aren't turning away in discussed at the way these children are acting.

This is where I quote my dread lord Cheney, who when asked what he thought about opposition to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan replied simple "So?"

Anyways. 36% oppose means 64% don't oppose. Moving on.
