Obama’s Bitch – ULTIMATE RINO – Enema of the State
Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) is facing a tough reelection this year. He is running for a second term and must win state-wide in Pennsylvania during a presidential year when there is typically higher Democratic turnout in Philadelphia. However, rather than harness the anti-Obama sentiments sweeping the nation and learning from the election results that he must promote our sovereignty, security, and civil society, Toomey thinks his road to reelection can be paved by confirming Obama judges.
Last Friday, Senator Toomey took his push for Obama judges to a new level. He sent a letter to his colleagues urging Chuck Grassley, chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, to confirm two more Pennsylvania judges to federal district judgeships. In a letter full of technocratic language, Toomey extols the nominees’ legal careers and notes they are “well qualified” according to the American Bar Association.
This is part of a broader problematic view people like Toomey have espoused concerning judicial nominations. In 2010, while running for Senate, Toomey penned an op-ed in the Philadelphia Inquirer urging Republicans to confirm Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court. He noted that while he would likely disagree with some of her rulings, she is “an extremely capable and qualified jurist.” Toomey should be asked if he still believes this in light of Sotomayor’s five years on the court redefining every aspect of the Constitution and rewriting statutes. Evidently, redefining marriage — the building block of all civilization — from the bench qualifies her as a jurist.
Was he challenged for the nomination and if not why not? Pennsylvania may be choc-full-of-Dems but I suspect there could be a hidden undercurrent of conservatism running that is just waiting for a real conservative to come forward. I would hope anyway.
Pat Toomey suuuuuuucks!!!!
Amazing how many chameleons are hiding in the Republican Party. The dirt bags can change their colors right out in broad daylight, under the glare of news cameras and even while speaking on the stump! I imagine they can even change positions while in the missionary position!
He’s merely expressing his inner Arlen Specter. (Or should that be Sphincter?)
Toomey is a goddam Shoobie!
