The Judicial Crisis Network ads claim we can only have a voice in replacing Justice Scalia by voting for the next president – and to them John says “We still have a current President whom we chose, I hate to sound like your dad, but you can’t open a new president when we’ve got a perfectly good President already open. Finish the old President first!”
Each of Ted Cruz’s long-winded arguments, can be boiled down to this, ‘for the last eighty years, we have never replaced a Supreme Court Justice while Obama was President.’ Claims by Republicans that ‘we’ve always done it this way’ are false It just takes a google search by some comedy writers to prove that there is absolutely no historical basis for waiting over a year until the next president is elected.
It gets even better. Ads by ‘The Judicial Crisis Network’ which claims to be the voice of the people, made by the people – are made with stock footage which anyone can purchase. Once purchased, one might design an ad which says the very opposite thing – for and by ‘we the people’ of course
.Enjoy the new ad, which is made with the charming Asian family, the lovely Black family and a baboon talking on a cell phone among others, they all say; “We the people, want you the politicians to do your BLEEEPING job!”
