I’m sure that you’re all disappointed to hear that: “Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said Thursday that he doesn’t expect to confirm any of Obama’s circuit court nominees for the remainder of his time in office, a blow to White House efforts to fill empty federal court seats despite working with a Republican-controlled Senate.” Alas, a lot of the damage on that front was already done last year, but better late than never, huh?
And this does have a bite, by the way: remember NLRB v. Canning? – Because I bet you Barack Obama does. I imagine that the President remembers every time he’s been forcibly reminded that – his own agitprop shops to the contrary – the man does not have a particularly strong grasp of Constitutional law scholarship…
Laws? Where this administration goes, we don’t need laws.
Looks like someone else won.
And here endeth Lesson No. Nth on why you never crow loud in victory or weep hard in defeat; for what goes around always comes around.
To goof on an overplayed commercial line…

Oh, McConnell will collapse on this like he’s collapsed on everything else.
GOP leadership is just about as good at those lines in the sand as Obama is.
